“ZIG !! GET BACK HERE AND RUB MY FEET!” A plump Ophelia screams from the back room of the Guyver Store. Zigzig is fast asleep standing up at the Guyver’s Store front counter. He does not stir.
“ZIG! You better not be asleep again or you can forget about sleeping at the foot of my bed tonight!”
Zigzig startles awake and immediately eyes the large Jack-o-lantern on the counter next to him. Half-asleep, he is sure it has started talking again. The moving of the Guyver’s store hasn’t ... |

The trip to M’Goth Tukar was tough, mighty tough. Zigzig almost froze to death trying to get there. The path had change so much in the years he had been gone. He barely survived. He got lost for 3 days in the frozen lands before finding something he recognized. Living in Port for so long had greatly softened his survival skills. He knew he was lucky to be alive, but that didn’t matter. He might be a little thinner and minus three toes, but he made it. He now stood at the gates of his ... |

So he must woo her, Zigzig thinks to himself. Woo her as a human would do. His brother Gwar always did tell him he was more human then Orc. Perhaps this will help. Thinking about Gwar made him a little sad. He missed his brother. Gwar had been gone for a very long time. He knew in all likelihood he would never see his brother again and he could really use his help right now. Sure, Gwar would laugh in his face finding out about the plans to woo the Savior of M’Goth. He would laugh but ... |

It will be perfect, Zigzig thinks to himself. It had taken two weeks to figure out the perfect way to woo Ophelia. Well, he didn’t really figure it out, not really. It was more presented to him.
The following is the direct translation from orclun of a children’s book written by Ophelia in the distant future. As the narrator of this story I feel this is the best way to describe the first wooing attempt of Zigzig. The following is to be read allowed in a public broadcasting network ... |

The first attempt went poorly, monumentally poorly. What was Zigzig thinking putting a severed head into Ophelia’s bed? It was a foolish mistake and hopefully Ophelia would never find out it was him. Ophelia blamed it on that little goblin king Tick Tack who was always sneaking into her bedroom. Zigzig did not offer any resistance to that theory. So, his first try went poorly, but his next idea would be perfect. Once he came up it.

After what seems like endless running, two vomiting episodes, and a pee break. Ophelia and Zigzig saunter into Gladden Farmlands. No, it isn’t a saunter or even a strut for that matter; it is more a horse walk with three dead legs. Ophelia drags Zigzig into the Gladden farmlands like a teenage mother pulling her exhausted three-year-old. She releases her grip and Zigzig tumbles to the packed dirt road. Exhausted, sucking wind into burning lungs, Zigzig lets his face flop onto the hard ... |

((I will make you a deal Johe. I finish this and you have to come play with us on Darker Days! Forgive me, I haven't written anything in years.))
Zigzig approaches the door to the Guyver store after making his round of deliveries in Port. He had not seen Ophelia for what seemed like weeks now and is worried. It was not like her to be gone for so long. Mr. Johe yes, he would be gone for months at a time, but not Ophelia. Zigzig reaches for the door handle seeing it covered in dark ... |
