Update on the Pigs
Hello, children. Hello.
Thanks to all none of you who write in to ask what sort of work is going on in the Mandarin’s laboratories. Here, as dutifully recorded by a lunatic named Cyriac, is a video demonstrating real progress.
Write in. And obey me. Especially about the writing in part.
The Mandarin, whose real name is 吏恆, joined the order in 1309, and introduced the Gormogons into England during the 18th Century.
The Mandarin enjoys spending time with his pet manticore, Βάρἰκος, or Barry (who can be found in the Bestiary). When not in the Castle…well, frankly, nobody is quite sure where he goes.
The Mandarin popularized the fine art of “gut booting,” by which he delivers a powerful kick to the stomach of anyone that annoys him. Although nearly universal today, the act of gut booting or threatening someone or something with a gut boot is solely due to him.
