Re: Pre-Game Stories
the scene: A boy and his Grandfather watch the militia training.
Hulfgar holds a long handled smiths tongs." Ok men I want the 10 fastest tallest soldiers to come here." The ten tallest militia step sheepishly forward. "Good, now heres the deal the rest of you are going to break up into teams of 5 and join these men." Hulfgar waits impatiently as the men arrange themselves from most popular to least. "Ok good now what you 5 boys are going to do when these giants attack is to distract as much as possible while the ... pincers... thats you tall ones charge in as fast as you can with these." Hulfgar holds up the 3 foot long smiths tongs. "Once you are between the giants legs reach as high as you can with these and hold on for dear life, understood...?" The question is met with horrified silence. " Good. Ok fall out men I will be in the rear of the battle making sure everything goes to plan. We will beat these giant swine, they may be tough but they lack backbone."
Grandfather slowly shakes his head.
