King Wellings – TIME LORD!
By Garrett Granth
Though many had seen the mad rantings in scandalous lie-bills and broadsheets entitled “The Royal Plot,” no one had given any credence to the idea that the nominated, would-be King would actually turn out to be a Time Lord.
But this was proven to be the case last week, when Adamu Wellings, known to many as “Addie,” stunned the whole of Britannia by proving to be the temporal-shifting Time Lord himself!
Wellings, who was believed to have ties to Human Supremacist groups, was prepared to ascend to the long vacant Throne in Castle Britain itself.
There, in front of a crowd of hundreds in a ceremony watched over by Lady Danica Amandine of The Knights Of The Crux Ansata, the Time Lord intervened, whisking Young Almost-King Wellings away through a gate that remained open for the Peoples of Britannia to follow.
Follow they did, through twisted time and space, only to discover that the Time Lord who had “rescued” young Adamu was none other than Wellings himself, and they fled into the Etherial Void after attempting to destroy the gathered Britannians, who knew this secret, with a Guardian of the Void!
Yet the people were ever ready to see the impostor return, as he did moments later, (moments being odd things when Time Lords are considered) appearing to have aged a lifetime.
Then the new not-quite King said he would settle to Magincia to live out his days with those who reared him, no doubt the Human Supremacist group Humanis of Magincia.
We, the editors and writers of the Britannian Scribe, wonder if any can truly be safe with such an influence in the realms!
Philosophers Cannot Find Soul
by Garrett Granth
The Eternal Path held a philosophical convergence just last night, in order to discuss the age old question – is there a soul? If so, what is it?
The Britannian Scribe sent reporter Garrett Granth to examine this debate, which was led by Wayfarer Rosar Ashande.
What he found may shock you.
In attendance, the unliving or magically-animated outnumbered the live! Nearly all the attendees sported unnatural skin conditions, odd coloured eyeballs, neon hair, strange odors, and otherworldly powers. Even the necromancers in attendance and those wearing obscuring masks seemed to be somewhat normal considering the crowd.
For those who might have no soul, or who have sold theirs in the service of great foul evils, such a question as the soul would have a more immediate impact, and the experimental works of necromancers, mages, and mystics would be quite important indeed!
And even with the oddest and most attuned minds of the ages present in that very room in Jhelom, no answers could be had. No evidence could be pointed to, no definitions could be ascribed to what a soul might even be. Even the ghostly form taken by those not permanently dead – such was dismissed as mere magical construct!
In the eyes of this reporter, when such a thing cannot be found by evidence, argument, logic, or debate, it is much more likely that it does not exist!
