Once upon a time, there was an asshole. The asshole mispronounced names, and made people write stories. One day, King Gutseh brought him into his courtroom. "Asshole, why do you mispronounce people's names?" King Gutseh said. The asshole replied, saying "Well, King Goosey, it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside!" The king was appalled at this show of disrespect toward him, but then confused, asked him "What is your actual name?" "My name is Reversinator, King Gostrich." The king was slowly but surely getting annoyed with Reversinator, but he had to stay calm. The king asked him why he had decided to make innocent people write stories for no reason at all. Reversinator told him a riddle instead, saying "I have a reason, but it cannot be told, unless you find the blue god of old!" The king asked him if his riddle was truthful, and Reversinator told him it was, stating he would never tell a lie.
So, King Gutseh sent out his bravest warrior, Packothius Barchetta to figure out the riddle stated by Reversinator. He gave Packothius a map, a horse, and a copy of the riddle, in case he had forgotten. Packothius set out on his horse, into a town known only as "The Boards". The population 1,483; he asked each and every one of them. He went to a citizen, sipping some tea, but that man known only as Uniju the Drunken only offered him some booze. He went to another citizen, who, when asked about the blue god of old, only showed him moving pictures, with various animals. Some made Packothius chuckle, but he soon afterward left. He went to one other person, one only known as "Triple Karotolla", who had useful information. He told Packothius that the name of the blue god was "Smash Cat", but his physical appearance was a cartoonish beaver. He also told him that he would find him deep underneath The Boards, in a mindless, barren wasteland, filled with various useless things, but it was the most active location on the planet. Packothius set off, when he discovered a sign saying "Stairs to Mindless Garbage". He went down the stairs.
At first, Packothius could not believe what he was seeing. It appeared that two of the citizens had flooded the land with various alcoholic beverages and more moving pictures of various animals! He then discovered a various group of daily questions, asked by King Gutseh himself, as well as a useless advice podium. He looked behind the podium and saw a cartoonish beaver, who then morphed into a humongous blue, dinosaur-like creature, with a gigantic tongue. He said to Packothius; "Need any advice?" Packothius replied to what he assumed was Smash Cat saying "Why has Reversinator decided to make innocent people write stories for no reason at all?'' Smash Cat said to Packothius; "He's a cheap lazy bastard who needs money." With this information in hand, Packothius went to tell King Gutseh his findings, stating "It appears our good friend Reversinator, is a cheap lazy bastard who needs some money." King Gutseh granted Reversinator exactly 500 pence to spend on whatever he wanted. Reversinator then left, but not before telling King Gutseh; "Good luck with the kingdom, King Granosaurus!"
