N.. no… NO!

There is something far too… royal about that name. Something that strikes fear in your soul.

You’ve never understood why kings scare you. Maybe it’s those crowns – jagged rims glistening like a dozen metal teeth burst forth from their skull, a vestigial maw seeking to devour any so unfortunate to find themselves upon it. Maybe it’s their clothes – an ocean of sparkling purple silk dragged behind them like the vicious tendrils of an unholy carnivorous plant. Maybe it’s their very expression – the way it oozes that solemn, dutiful dedication to their country.

“Scare” might even be too weak a word. Dukes terrify you, as do Princes, Counts, and Barons. But Kings, Queens, Emperors… you don’t know what you’d do if you ever found yourself face-to-face with one. Probably curl up and cry.

You used to have a recurring nightmare where you were trapped in a small, dark room with a King. There’s no way out. No one to help you. And he just stands there, being a king. Luckily, you’ve mostly taken care of your nightmare problem through heavy self-medication. Though you guess the self-medication became the bigger problem.

This name sounds pretty cool though. You like the way it rolls off your sandpapery tongue. You jot it down and hand the immigration form to the guard.

The guard says you can keep it if you want. They don’t actually keep track of immigration, and he only brought the form because you asked. He’s just going to throw it out.

You tell him you don’t care. This has symbolic value to you. It makes your new life feel official. He obliges and accepts the document.

Not many people out here; everyone must be inside. Looks like there’s some shops near the dock. One appears to be a general store, the other some kind of restaurant.

  Right? I actually poo-pooed my panties looking at this. I don’t think it is entertaining. This one guy i’m talking to right now does. Why? Its just going to be the same story. No diversity. Boooooooring.
  - Kazerad
    
    Poo-pooing your panties is a really unusual and slightly troubling reaction to boredom. =o

      Also, it’s really really unsanitary.

    You’re on page two! If you can read it should take you about 30 seconds to read to this point, and if you have an attention span of thirty seconds; then congratulations! You’re on par with a goldfish!

    …did you just reply to your own comment?

    ummm
    It’s…clever, but isn’t replying to your own comment with a supporting statement like “I know right” at least a liiiittle weird?

To the people who think its boring… ya it is, you have to force yourself to read it for the next few pages, then it starts to get really good

  Same as homestuck.

pfft all of you are a bunch of whiny bitches. I like this. alot.
frankly because i know the story will get better, the writer is just trying to set up the character’s personality and wants us to see what she is like: Kind, Gentle. i can tell by the way she handled talking to that guard. and NOT snapping his neck off. or thinking about it. She’s an Immigrant who is trying to make a better life for herself. I can respect that.
munky

No, you haters are right. This is boring. If you’re going to rip off the format and setup of another well-known story, then at least make the art interesting or the jokes funny. This just has people that are also cats.
- Kazerad
  
  If you can tell me where you find the art and humor lacking then I will try harder to satisfy your tastes in the future, Mr. Munky! That is, assuming it doesn’t conflict with any other mechanisms at play.
- Meowrvelous
  
  Dude, nobody is ripping of the format of MS Paint Adventures. People are encouraged to make their own adventures in the MSPA forums, which is where this story started.
  
  The humor is a little different here, but that’s because this isn’t Homestuck. It’s a different story. I would argue that it’s a different genre altogether.
  
  And I think the art is adorable.

  Oh man, tens of thousands of people have seen that misspelling by now and you’re the first to point it out D=. Corrected, thank you!

Is it really that bad? I agree it gets better, but I think this is a pretty fantastic opening.

In the area for “sex” there shouldve been a “sure” or something else humorous crossed out before female. haha/

Eu amei sua arte, Kazerad (mas amo Skyrim, sou suspeito a falar hehe). Bom enrredo, personagem cativante e incrivel iniciativa da sua parte. Congratulations ! =D

The Age of The Managan

When the quill is in the writing paw
And the form it gets filled out
Then peace will fill our dreamings
And hope will guide our lives

This is the dawning of the Age of our Katia
The Age of The Managan
Our Katia! The Managan!

Sober and good reputation
Really free and off probation
No more royals or bad visions
Recur creepy dreams of prison
Anvil’s sea port destination
And the dream king’s abdication

Our Katia! The Managan!

When Khajiit is in the first province
And all the cults are left behind
Then peace will fill our dreamings
And hope will land us jobs

This is the dawning of the Age of our Katia
The Age of The Managan
Our Katia! The Managan!
Our Katia! The Managan!

Let the cat live, Let the cat live here
The cat lives here
Let the cat sleep, Let the cat sleep well
The sleep sans king
Let the cat friend, Let the cat friend you
The friends to care
Let the booze go, Let the booze spill out
The booze, don’t need
Let the voices, Let the voices in
Voices to guide
Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in
Shine warms our fur
