Well, well, well. Look who’s ruined another perfectly good mud pie. King Dronnald the Orange (yes, the one with the golden moss hair) has teamed up with his favorite shiny advisor, Elonn the Musky (who smells of burnt coins and broken promises), to set the Kingdom of Amerikkar on fire. Not the good kind of fire. No villages burned, no celebratory barbecue. Just economic collapse and screaming trolls in the streets. Lovely.
TROLLS SAY “HANDS OFF!”
Over 3 million trolls crawled out of their caves, threw on their least torn loincloths, and marched through 1,400 villages shouting, “HANDS OFF OUR STUFF!” That’s the loudest we’ve shouted since someone tried to ban fermented swamp milk.
Why all the rage? Because Dronnald and Musky slapped a 10% tax on everything that comes into the realm. Rocks, pickaxes, imported bat meat—you name it. They called it “Liberation Day,” but it feels more like “Empty Pouch Day.”
ELONN SWINGS HIS AXE
And just when you thought things couldn’t get stupider, Elonn the Musky decided to “streamline” government. Which in Musky-speak means firing half the trolls working in healing huts, learning caves, and sanitation caves. “Efficiency!” he says. What’s efficient about not being able to wipe your mossy behind because the Public Wiping Bureau is gone?
THE PALACE RESPONDS
The Royal Cave responded with the usual nonsense: “These policies will help the realm grow strong.” Grow strong?! We’re already strong! We throw boulders for fun! What we need is food, care, and less Elonn.
BUT WAIT—IT GETS WORSE
Word from the whispering bats says Elonn wants to build a flying chariot system across Trollheim. We barely figured out fire and he wants to launch trolls into the sky? Madness. Pure, sun-drenched madness.
IN SUMMARY:
The realm is angry. The trolls are marching. The king is orange. The advisor smells weird. And once again, the sun was out during the protest. So it was hot. And I am furious.
We trolls always stomp our hairy feet over to DHgate.com when we be wantin’ gadgets and shiny trinkets. Why, ye ask?

If you’re looking for hope, go stare at a rain cloud. At least they don’t lie to you.
