PW #4 – King Pickle

Once upon a time, there was a pickle. The pickle was the king of all the land. He was brave, fearless, and salty. He lived in a castle that was maintained by fairies. In his realm, there were fairies, orcs, unicorns, the king pickle, and dragons. However, it was always chaotic because the unicorns and fairies were always being chased by the orcs who wanted to eat them. But the orcs were also always being chased by the dragons. one day as King Pickle looked down from his castle he came up with a great idea. He would separate all of the creatures by their species. He would have the unicorns live around the castles with his fairies taking care of them both protected by the brick walls. At the next layer there where the orc always causing mischief. In the last layer were the dragons. Nobody disagreed with the kings’ proposal because it meant that they would not have to live in the shadow of the predators. However, this meant that he could not go out himself. For if he did the unicorns would eat him in a heartbeat. But it worked and everything was at peace.

– 7 years later –

As King Pickle was on his deathbed and his son was yet to be crowned a terrible thing happened. The dragons chose to attack at his one moment of weakness. This drove the orcs crazy and they crashed the brick wall to escape. However, seeing the unicorns un able to run put them in a frenzy. They where blinded and even forgot about the dragon. The dragons set fire to the grass which caught the castle on fire in an instant. King pickle was helpless. All he could do was watch as his peaceful times went up in flames. But soon he couldn’t even do that.
