  1. I swore loyalty to our Queen and seek to uphold it through peace. And we're all about yaks because yaks are awesome.
  2. You can join me in the Benevolent Order of the Yak. We mostly just sit around, eating yak meat and sipping ale while NOT FIGHTING.
  3. Perhaps Death has joined the Order. Care for some yak meat, Death? Joe?
  4. Because it has to do with the war, even if neutrality is the goal.
  5. Chuck everything you've got at me.
  6. You want me to give up? Now I have a beef with you.
  7. Prepare for your udder defeat.
  8. TwiLyght did not step onto the battlefield. Such an action would breach her vow of neutrality. She did, however, stand as close as she dared, wind tearing at her embroidered cloak. "Please!" she cried. "There's still time to avoid this war! The Benevolent Order of the Yak accepts all!" She waited, but her cries seemed lost to wind and distance.
  9. Don't mess with Switzerland. We take precautions.
  10. TwiLyght sipped her ale. "Now, now, gentlemen. Keep it civil. This is neutral ground." She continued to watch, admitting to no one that she was quite fond of Quiver's evil goatee.
  11. I have lived here for two years and will continue to complain about the heat for as long as I stay here. I will not forget my Northwestern roots! Give me blizzards or give me death!
  12. (((I'm very sensitive to the heat. Yes, I am a wimp and proud of it.)))
  13. "I, my Queen, am with BreathTaker." TwiLyght opened a delicately embroidered fan and waved it in a losing battle against the desert heat. "The Order of the Yak welcomes all. Settle it with Quiver there."
  14. Yes, this is very much the Switzerland thread. Your warbirds are only welcome so long as they are not here for war. They may feast on yak meat, but if I sense a fight, you will be asked to leave. And we can back that threat up. We've taken….precautions. I will have an organic ale, please.
  15. A bar would be most welcome. As would A/C. Peaceful drinking is always allowed.
  16. The Herd shall be welcome here as well. Kindly leave your conflicts at the door, please. If, um, that's okay with you.
  17. [post=http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/12907-the-benevolent-order-of-the-yak/?p=155530]A refusal of the call. [/post] Join the chickens.
  18. I refuse to participate in this war. Perhaps it is my own fault. Perhaps I joined too many alliances, believing they would never betray one another. But there is no time for regret. War is coming, and there will be casualties. I hereby found the Benevolent Order of the Yak. Members of all factions—Newcagoans, Wafflesworn, Lords of Chaos, and all others—may seek aid from this Order. We shall cheerfully and graciously provide seekers of aid with warm knitted clothing and home-cooked yak meat. This shall be served with a healthy dose of Northwest sarcasm and excuses for not taking sides with warring factions. All are welcome to join me in the Benevolent Order of the Yak.
  19. TwiLyght sniffed. "That same sun that cooks the waffle will kill you in an hour. Should you have the chance to actually enjoy the waffle, it would taste like dirt. Overcooked dirt. Trust me, Arizona chaos is not the desirable kind of chaos."
  20. It's still grey. And it doesn't count as greenery if it wants to kill you. And everything in Arizona wants to kill you. Even the bushes will attack if you're not careful.
  21. Where did Weird Al Yankovic fit into the whole Epic dystopia, I wonder? Was he executed for writing "Total Slip of Steelheart" (an 80s inspired ballad about Newcago's dictator dying from an undignified slip in the bathtub)? Or was he spared for quickly penning "Faultline, Apologize" (about all the reasons why Faultline should not have rebelled?)
  22. TwiLyght accepted the spicy chicken with a small word of thanks. Yak meat was her favorite—indeed, it was the superior meat, and she would not rest until the world was fully aware of its joys—but it was nice to change things up now and then. "I…it snows here," she said, still somewhat distracted. "It never snows in Arizona. Well, it did two years ago, but never since." She sighed. "There is no green there. It's grey, all grey. How can BT want to return to that?"
  23. TwiLyght nearly choked on her yak meat as she watched the events unfold. "My, my," she said, though without a trace of her usual sarcasm. It was an expression of utter shock, murmured breathlessly. The Alemaster, leaving peaceful and snowy Newcago for the hellish wasteland of an American desert? Unthinkable. She sat in silence. Nothing was the same. Not even her knitting needles beckoned to her. She set her yak meat aside, unable to stomach another bite.
  24. I thought we agreed never to speak of that travesty again.
