The feast of Peasants! Once again it was time for feast to be had, and once again, it was time to rise up against the oppression and villainy of the Dragon King and his beautiful Queen. Would tonight be the night the High Prince and his siblings would finally garner a victory? Or would the King stand firm and crush the rebellion once again? Tonight's meal, common dish among the general populations throughout the kingdom: Shepherd's Pie! A perfect dish for the heirs. Meat, potatoes, cheese, and vegetables. Should be simple enough for the Princess and her two brothers. Unfortunate, but not unexpectedly, the begging and pleading started immediately. "Father! May we eat this with our most beloved of all condiments, Ketchup?" the High Prince pleaded. "Of course, son. As your mother and I explained before, you can season your meal to your tastes, as long as you consume it. That is all we ask!" The Dragon King responded, his displeasure at the repetitive na...

How Hard is Eating Meatloaf? Again that time came, and again the vile Dragon King summoned his family to the banquet hall for dinner. Again, the High Prince, the Princess of Dragons, and the "Spare" Prince begrudgingly sat around the table, the anxiety of another dinner weighing down on them. Tonight's battle?

"Father, may we have ketchup with our dinner?" "Of course son, you can have stuff to flavor your food as you want. However, you will still eat this meal." Ketchup was provided to High Prince and the Princess of Dragons. "Alr...

The strange tale of Beef! The Dragon King once again summoned his progeny to the banquet hall, preparing himself for another long night of negotiating, begging, and crying. Lately the High Prince, the Princess of Dragons, and the "Spare" Prince had been working together again, trying to play off one another, attempting to weaken the King's resolve. The festivities of the week had only strengthened the King's determination, his ego goaded into epic proportions due to the very nature of the jubilee! Befitting of the continued deliquesces, the Queen of Night prepared a new meal for her King. Beef with cheese topped with fresh bread. A feast designed to win over the King, while not inciting a revolt in the offspring. It was a good plan, well thought out and quite effective. All she had to do was allow the children to cover the dish in their favorite condiment, ketchup and they would eat it. Or so the Queen hoped. At first, the meal seemed a success, for the "S...
