You Godwin Son and You Lose Some
a Family saga
(Cynewulf is a bastard son of OUR Harold that was born around the same time as Edulf)
Swithelm: Which is why your request is ridicules!
Cynewulf: Brother, just listen to reason...Harold please!
Jean: Never call me that! I am Jean.
Cynewulf: Fine, whatever..but the ponies?!
Jean: Yes, from each of our counties..all of them..
Swithelm: This is insane, I'm out.
Edulf: Let's...try to keep calm, perhaps he needs them to prepare an army for war? Like dad used to say, against England, right?
Jean: What?! An..army? hahaha, ah young Edulf go back to your lessons, Ponies are just soooo cute. I must have them all.
Cynewulf: ...I'm leaving as well.
Jean: Fine! But I'll have alll your ponies.
Edulf: I don't think this is what dad intended..
Jean: Are you still talking about that old dead fool? Newsflash runt, he's dead.
Edulf: yeah but you told hi...
Jean: I told him what he wanted to hear, which is what you do when you have a king, and guess who your king is, and guess what he wants to hear?!!?
Edulf: Fine..I'll get your ponies...
Jean: That's a good little brother. Oh and Edulf.
Edulf: Yes Har...Jean?
Jean: You are lucky we share the same mother, or else you'd be dead right now.
Edulf: ....yeah, thanks bro.
Ah being me is the best. Oh? What's this courier?A message from the Pope?!
What's a Pope?
So..what sort of stuff is he for and against?
...
he believes WHAT!
Well if a man can't lie with another man, then I wont give him my money!
I mean, men are superior to women, and therefore a man with a man is superior to a man with a women.
Pope can't do simple math.
My Royal Pony collectors return from Swithelm's court, having been laughed at, mocked and refused Ponies!
This will not do!
Godwinson No!
HaHa, now that I am the top dog my rebellious ways wont be needed.
I'll save them for later.
Now armies, rise! Rise to smite the Pony-refusing heretics!
My Grande Armee crushes my foolish brother.
However, even as he pathetically begs for peace, offering me his Gold. He still refuses to give me his ponies.
In the meantime it seems my brother Cynewulf Count of Aukshayts has also forced the Pony collectors out of his county as well.
Uncivilized Saxon Bastards.
Cynewulf would rather surrender his country, than surrender his ponies.
But he doesn't have choice in the matter.
Isn't that right Swithelm?
Didn't like watching all your woman-folk be murdered did you?
I doubt Cynewulf like's it any better.
Ah, yes my pony collectors now freely roam those unclothe lands.
Hmmm? A message from Moscow?
Well....I think you might be a bit too barbaric...but at the same time, dad wouldn't like it..
I love being in charge almost as much as I love ponies.
Aujourd'hui est un jour splendide.

Yeah, Harol...Jean is a bastard.
And the real Harold is trapped in the underworld!
Speaking of which, I'll try to have his next installment posted tonight..I've got most the drawings done for it, just need to color it all in..which takes me a lot longer than you'd think.
=D
