 | | By the authority and duty vested in me as Guardian, judge and arbiter of Quizzyland, I, kyleisalive, herewith declare ruled according to prevailing law:
First, that by virtue of both the recent cat-astrophic battle and the public opinion poll which ended in seventy-six votes for Mr. Evi L. Twin and one hundred and five votes for Mr. Junior, that all title and property to the Lair, including all treasure, weapons and traps therein, are assigned to Mr. Junior in perpetuity.
Second, that for his transgressions against the safety of Quizzyland and for his continued mistreatment of his own creations, Mr. Evi L. Twin shall be banished from the lands, seas, air and underground of the Republic of Quizzyland for a period of one thousand days.
Third, that after reviewing the evidence and testimony of Prime Guardian Terry and Tower Guardian WesleyCrusher, the high treason charges each brought against the other are null and void as both could clearly demonstrate they only had the best of the country in mind when they took sides and, in diverting the forces westward, have prevented a much greater catastrophe. As such, both are acquitted of any guilt.
Fourth, that all charges of murder that have been filed in this court are nonsubstantial because all 181 citizens who had taken sides have returned from the battlefield without lasting injury.
And fifth and finally, that the entire assets and property of Mr. Evi L. Twin shall be confiscated and held towards the repairing of any damage sustained by the country and its citizens. Any remaining funds from his vast illicitly accumulated riches shall be returned to him after this has been done.
So it is decreed and just. For Knowledge! | |
Later on the same evening
|
 | | So, a new Diamond Dome, massive structural reinforcements to the Tower, mapping and salvaging of what is lost from the lower Lost Levels, the damaged houses and harvests from the pumpkin goo... do Evi's assets really pay for that? | |
 | | By a factor of about six, actually, according to what I have seen. But once we figure in the compensation to those seven mistreated kittens, the cost of medical and veterinary services, replacements for rossian's wolves and upstart's priceless Frankenkittens and everything else, it will be a lot less. Still, even after that, he should be able to buy himself a small country to terrorize and hopefully forget about us and Junior soon. | |
 | | Speaking of Junior... what shall we do about him? He'll be with us for a long time to come and if his dad and his career so far are any indication, his power will increase exponentially. | |
 | | I'd say he'll get tired of us in two or three years. Maybe four. At the rate he's accumulating wealth with his investments - he's far more talented at that than his father - I'll bet he'll sell the lair on Craigslist by 2030 at the latest... and then we have the old undead guy back, because who else wants that lair... | |
 | | Given the number of cheaters we had here over the years, there might actually be quite the bidding war over it. | |
 | | I'd not underestimate Junior... I've been here for seventeen years... and he is, after all, somewhat related to me. He might just use this place as a sort of private theme pa... | |
 | | Don't say that word! | |
 | | ...entertainment complex. Anyway, here's to having survived another year of this... | |
 | | Wait! It's not a party without a rabbit. And by that I don't mean that cantankerous Kate Anchorous... | |
 | | Dagnabbit rabbit! Where is flopsy? I don't think she took sides, at least she was not in Evi's headquarters. | |
 | | She's not been in the south either... where is she? | |
The door to the pool area opens with a loud bang... and a feeble "quack"
|
 | | Well, thank you for inviting me so early and reliably... just who do you think managed the medics for the last eight days and made sure no one died... | |
...Fade to Black and End Credits
See you next year... |
