Ah, I awake to another day within the

kingdom of true happiness.

The Sun rises in the night sky to bask

us all in its cold glow of happiness.

Oh but it appears

that I have run

out of happiness

tokens for the

magician.

Oh no I can see happiness

draining from this world, as

a Crusader for Justice, I

must return to the magician

to obtain more happiness.

I must use my blade

of the cheerful to

hunt down an angry

troll and bring it to

happiness in order

to obtain happiness

tokens.

It appears I have found a troll of

anger pretending to be a normal

citizen of this wonderful kingdom.

Although I can see his true

colours, his true nature, the way

he is a threat to all that is happy

and good, I must smite him.

Ah, excellent it appears this demon

has noticed me and he best prepare

for battle lest he flee like the

coward all those who appose happi-

ness are forever condemned to be.

‘I am crusader for justice, I vow to abolish

all those of impure essence whether the

cost for this be another's life or my own.’

The more he tried to hide

his anger with an innocent

face, the more I began to

see the extent of his rage.

The beast began to flee, yelling,

’please have mercy, I have done

nothing wrong.’ although I knew

this creature deserved no mercy

from a true crusader.

The troll stumbled to the ground

begging for mercy, I could see that he

was at he was weakened as his anger

had turned to fear. So I took the oppor-

tunity as a blessing and rose my blade

with the glory of the kingdom.

I brought my blade down upon

him with a magical flurry that

would have made the magician

proud to have such a crusader

in his kingdom

My cheerful blade,

while plunged into

his torso, rid him of

all his magical angry

taint and replaced it

with a glowing happi-

ness to last as colour

were shooting out of

him. It even seemed

as if he was couching

up a red happiness

from his mouth.

I knew the new citizen of this kingdom would

be grateful to me from releasing him from his

taints that I decided to retrieve the happiness

tokens I had so perused from the dawn of this

day. With tokens in hand I began my journey

up to the magicians sanctuary to be rewarded

some new happiness.

There the magician

was waiting and upon

my arrival called to

me, ‘WELCOME.’ I felt

honoured mealy to be

in his presence as he

stood atop this

Kingdom as a divine

ruler and a rival to

anger and evil alike.

I handed him my happiness tokens as I

could see a smile appearing on his

face. These tokens must truly be of

value to him and in turn, the kingdom

to give him such a happy glow.

In turn the magician handed me my

dose of happiness for the day, so I can

see the world in its true colours and

defend this kingdom against the troll

residing within the kingdom of anger.

As the happiness flowed through my arm

and to my head I felt truly alive, I felt like

nothing, not even a troll of greed could

take these feelings away. Although I

was beginning to feel a little to happy

and could feel as if something was going

wrong…..

With a dose of happiness now

in my hands I decided continue

with my duty and proceed

with the ritual of happiness.

Dreadfully wrong…..

I didn't understand, at first

I had happiness but now I

have this object in my arm

filling me with some kind of

taint. I started to feel all

sorts of emotions from

happiness to sadness, pity

to jealousy and It was be-

ginning to make me feel

sick.

I could see flashes of evil trolls trying to ma-

nipulate the minds of others. I could see

flashes of corpses lay there as if they were

screaming just before the last of there life

was taken from them. I didn't know what to

do. I had to go see the magician, only he

could save me.

Although for another visit to the magician

I would need more tokens of happiness, I

could feel my heart pounding viciously as I

saw a troll and knew what I must do, be-

fore anything offcourse I chanted the sa-

cred vow.

‘I’M CRUSADER……… JUSTICE…. VOW TO

ABOLISH… IMPURE ESSENCE…. COST FOR

THIS… ANOTHERS LIFE.’

It was less than perfect but I believe it

sure came close.

‘AH HAHAHAHA,

THE MAGICIAN

WILL SET

EVERYTHING

RIGHT AGAIN,

JUST U WAIT.’

‘STAB STAB STAB STAB.’ Excellent more happiness tokens

‘But…..wait, huh? That feeling is

fading, I can see clearly, what..? Its

night time.’

‘My head, it hurts and my….

My memories are all hazy…..’

‘So that means these past few weeks

I've been…………….’

‘Although… She wasn't a troll, there

are no such thing as trolls.’

‘OH GOD, WHAT HAVE I

DONE!?!?!’

‘I've killed

some of

those closest

to me…’

‘This all started back then as just

something new to try out.’

‘And the man called the magician…

was just some junkie.’

‘Well there's only one thing left for me

now.’

‘To hope whatever's on the other

side will accept me after what

I've done.’

‘I am crusader for justice, I vow to

abolish all those of impure essence.’

‘Whether the cost for this be

another's life or my own….’

‘Who would’ve thought, hell is nothing but

a big drug addiction support group.’
