about

Another stupid story about allergens in a medieval village

lyrics

*The village of Ansnesia is plagued with Ragweed which torments the eyes and noses of its citizens.*

Old Man: "All through the valleys and forests o’er yonder
BEWARE! The Mighty Ragweed grows!
Causing great error to the people of Ansnesia
Where they all blow their nose!

They dare not cross that line
That leads to the weeds.
That waters up their eyes.
And it clogs the proboscis!

And so the sovereign declared war against the ragweed.
The ephebes begin their trek.
Marching in rows two by two, swords in hand.
Led by Lord Zyrtec!

They’re bound to cross that line
That leads to the weeds.
That waters up their eyes.
And it clogs more proboscis!”

*Lord Zyrtec and his army strap on their armor and weapons and file into their ranks. He begins the journey.

“Gentlemen, for the largely pollinated airs of Ansnesia! MARCH FORWARD!”

The army marches towards The Forest Of Allergens. During which, some soldiers fall to their knees their eyes itch so bad. Luckily, Lord Zyrtec brought a year’s supply of tissues for wounded soldiers. They march on. Upon entering, they are attacked by swarms of pollen, dust, mold, lactaids, and shrimp. Some soldiers were demised by the purring kittens nuzzling at their shins. Zyrtec, the bravest (And most immune) finds the central cause for the terrible nasal cloggage, The Mighty Ragweed! He sticks his sword in it thus slaying the beast.

Suddenly, the forest around them vanishes. The army blows their noses one last tim, and marches back towards Ansnesia. The trumpets ring all throughout the village.*

Old Man: "Thanks to Lord Zyrtec, The Ragweed is gone!
The terror has come to an end.
Proboscis’s all o’er Ansnesia have cleared.
The eyes have dried off all their tears!
AHHHHH!!!"
