To the outside world,273Please respect copyright.PENANAakMBMQyAYL
Following the path beyond the bridge, I came across a village made entirely of gummy. I must've entered the village at an odd time, because it seemed the village leader was giving a speech.273Please respect copyright.PENANA4Q1Tuw03MI
"Esteemed members of our community, I bring you wonderful news following my visit to the castle. The long-anticipated festival is set to begin. The queen has graciously granted us her approval and has also allocated extra resources to ensure that this event is truly memorable."273Please respect copyright.PENANAHtJV5Fk4pB
"She's just trying to make us forget her crimes, chief!"273Please respect copyright.PENANAGpz2ilm7nU
The villagers exchanged glances, curious about the identity of the deranged individual who had dared to curse the queen. From the darkness stepped a figure, a gummy with a piece missing from their head. "She's a cannibal, a killer cloaked in royalty. She deserves a slow and painful execution!"273Please respect copyright.PENANAYlL0qfQem3
"Don't you dare speak of such foul actions from our queen! She's an angel, a powerful and elegant maiden who cares for all of her kingdom!"273Please respect copyright.PENANAicZV0ppzOL
"She chewed the king right in front of me! He sacrificed himself to make sure I live to tell the tale!"273Please respect copyright.PENANA0cwiphqB6j
"And a fairytale is all it is. Guards! Drop him into the dark well, and make sure he can't crawl back out!"273Please respect copyright.PENANAkfwKbd7IdL
"Please no, I'm just trying to save everyone!" The guards gripped the madman by the arms and dragged him away. "Just you wait, chief! A monster's hunger can only grow, and when it does, this village will be nothing but leftovers!"273Please respect copyright.PENANA7zqe8u3kl1
"Thank the candy heavens that nonsense is over. Now, for the rest of you, prepare for the festivities." As the villagers started to split apart, they noticed me at the foot of the village. "Uh chief, what kind of candy is that one? Wait a minute, is that chocolate upon its mouth!"273Please respect copyright.PENANAISNGRvUq1P
A soldier lifted his spear, crafted from rock candy, high into the air while I wiped the chocolate from my face. "Don't you worry chief, I will kill this beast!"273Please respect copyright.PENANA9taaUagJFX
He ran at full speed, thrusting his spear towards my chest. It was nothing but a little poke. "Impossible! This is the strongest weapon in the village, it couldn't possibly-" Before the soldier could finish, I bowed down and chewed his head off.273Please respect copyright.PENANAbQCa6dGBbO
"Mmm, strawberry!"273Please respect copyright.PENANAFvxDepnUDB
The villages watched in shock as the soldier's body fell backwards onto the pavement. Their screams could be heard throughout the entire kingdom as they ran in circles, bumping into each other.273Please respect copyright.PENANAml4FZ8rWXy
"Saira, darling," Eddy appeared. "Do you lack sympathy for these beings? Aren't they simply striving to lead a normal existence, much like yourself?"273Please respect copyright.PENANAbao04Ty8Rh
"They tried to draw first blood."273Please respect copyright.PENANAJQyaCZN3qB
"While that might hold some truth, in contrast to them, you resemble a fantastical terror from another realm. A being not crafted from sugary delights in a land overflowing with sweetness poses quite the menace, wouldn’t you agree?"273Please respect copyright.PENANAS1p2iKATiJ
As Eddy vanished once again, the entire gummy village gathered together and charged with full force.273Please respect copyright.PENANAlMS2dCw7yT
