Tales of Castle Blockview

Chapter One: View Make a Me Crazy

The ogre Bolbox awakens from his slumber

1

BOLBOX- *Yawn.

2

BOLBOX-Ah, what a beautiful morning!

3

BOLBOX- I have everything I need. My comfy cave, plenty of animals to hunt and my beautiful mountain...

4

BOLBOX- ...view?

5

BOLBOX- What the #%$& is that doing there!? That castle wasn't there a second ago. That big eyesore is blocking my perfect view.

6

BOLBOX- Grrrrr that's it. I'm gonna pay my new castle neighbors a visit.

MEANWHILE

In the throne room of the new castle Blockview...

7

KING NIXON- This new castle should suit me nicely, Jexler.

JEXLER- Yes your highness. It's much better than the one you have near the seashore. I never liked the flow of that castle. The feng shui was all off.

8

JEXLER- This one on the other hand screams party!

KING NIXON- My thoughts precisely my chowderheaded chum. The queen will love this. Oh Brevita.

9

QUEEN BREVITA- You beckoned me, my love?

KING NIXON- Quite right my buxom beauty. I have a mind to throw an ostentatious party to celebrate our new castle and to show off my greatness to the local rabble.

10

QUEEN BREVITA- That sounds like a pleasant diversion, Sire. I shall help in the preparations.

KING NIXON- See that you do my dear. For tonight we shall party like it's 999!

SOME TIME LATER IN THE VILLAGE BELOW

11

KLINK- Hear ye, Hear ye!

12

KLINK- By pronouncement of the great King Nixon, the lord of the new castle Blockview, I expand to you an invitation.

KLANK- Expand? Don't you mean you extend an invitation, Klink?

13

KLINK- Look here Klank. It says "expand to you an invitation." I only read what is written.

14

KLANK- Expand an invitation? Well that's not very good English now ain't it tho?

KLINK- You should talk. Besides, it's not as though the king has a spell checker. He wrote it on a blasted scroll! Now bugger off and let me make my pronouncification.

15

KLINK- Uh Hmm, As I was saying everyone. His glorious highness King Nixon is throwing a celebration and you are all invited.

16

MOOM- What's all this about anyway? This castle just appears out of nowhere today and now the King wants us to celebrate about it?

KLINK- Who might you be m'lady? Besides lovely beyond compare.

17

MOOM- Don't make eyes at me like that. The name's Moom. I own the local tavern and help run this market.

18

KLINK- I loves a woman with brains. I am Klink, first guard of the court of Blockview castle. This here is my daft mate Klank. Pay him no mind.

KLANK- I am second guard. That is until he gets run through or is sacked.

KLINK- Clam it Klank! Not in front of the lady.

19

MOOM- What's in it for us if we go to this party?

KLINK- Plenty of pomp and circumstance, some speeches from his royal highness and the distinguished company of yours truly.

20

TOWNS PEOPLE- *groan...

KLANK- Oh and don't forget, all the mead you can drink!

21

TOWNS PEOPLE- What time shall we be there?

JUST THEN

hidden in the shadows...

22

BOLBOX- So this King Nixon of the new castle Blockview is throwing a party, is he?

BOLBOX- I think I better shine my dancing boots. Hehehe.

24

BOLBOX- And what are you looking at cow? Go milk yourself "Bessie!" I have a party to crash.

25

BOLBOX- Typical.
