nd in the land of the Green Dragon there existed the Kingdom of Kalvinia. Seeking new challenges the Wizard and the Guru made a pilgrimage to Kalvinia where they found a happy tribe of Kalvinians who were wont to make merry with ale and song by the Riverside.

The Wizard cast the spell of carpentry and electronics and the Guru bestowed the gift of music and the people of Kalvinia were happy throughout the land.

The Bully was happy too for a while because the Wizard and the Guru were collecting taxes sometimes known as “outputs” which helped to fund the Bullys ale house and country retreat.

After a while though the Bully became jealous of the Wizard and Guru’s popularity in Kalvinia. He undertook to make a visit to the far Kingdom himself even though it was plain he did not speak the language nor understand the customs. He took along with him his hench-person to minister to his needs on the journey.

The Wizard and the Guru feared that the Bully would try to turn the Sherriff of Kalvinia against them as he had done others and tempt him with trinkets and promises. The Bully had even been known to bestow the gift of servants upon his subjects and had long had a reputation for giving away Servers.

The Bully and his Hench-person arrived in Kalvinia but alas all did not go well. You see the Bully was known abroad as “SADIM” (Sadim being the reverse of Midas meaning all he touched turned to Shite)

Afterwards the Kalvinians deserted the land of the Green Dragon and thereafter made their celebrations in the Church of the Trinity and thus the Electric Palace in Kalvinia fell into disuse.

Long after the Guru was banished from Sadim’s Kingdom, Sadim the Bully sent the Guru parchments demanding payment of rentals. The Guru was not minded to pay these as it was Sadim the Bully who had turned the Kingdom of Kalvinia to Shite.

The Guru invoked the wrath of the Chancellor of the Externals and the Lady of the Woods who cried “begone Sadim The Bully, pay these rentals from thine own coffers which are heavy with underspend.
