In the days of the Great Ruckus Wars, the small mountain village of Mupe fortified its borders, and all the townspeople took turns guarding the walls. One foggy evening, Mogey and Smush were fulfilling their guard duties when an odd-looking creature approached the gate.
It looked a bit like short, squat penguin, but its beak was so large that the creature had no choice but to drag its head along the ground.
"Who goes there?" Smush shouted, brandishing a spear at the strange thing.
"It is I, Lunk!" the creature said, keeping his head on the ground but raising comically small wings in the air. "I'm naught but a humble gulbous in search of work."
"A gulbous?" Mogey repeated, glancing at Smush. "And what sort of work do you do, Lunk?"
"Well..." Lunk replied, rolling his head side-to-side as if he hadn't considered this before. "Do you need anyone to draw hopscotch courts?"
