One day Mogey and Smush were ambling through the deep dark Oondale Forest when they encountered a pine cone monster.
"Avast!" cried the pine cone monster, tumbling out into the narrow path. His skin was gnarly and prickly all over and he scarcely came up to Mogey and Smush's waist but he brandished his pine cone fists in a feisty manner. "Dare you tread the path of my ancestors?" he demanded.
"Aw look at you, little fella," Mogey said, patting the pine cone monster on his coney head. "What's your name?"
"My name is too frightening to be heard by the human ear," the pine cone monster replied. "It was created by a demon in a torture chamber on a moonless night during the most evil year of all time!"
"Well, what is it?" Smush asked.
"Lester," the creature replied. "But most of my friends call me Piney."
