11 May 22 UTC Spring, 10: History will say it was the power vacuum left behind by Rome that lead to the 100 years of war to follow it's collapse but in truth the Grecko/Roman people proved to me more hostile than the other empires could have ever predicted. Even after occupation the lords who survived the takeover fell back into old habits only the once nearby roman senate was now replaced by a far away emperors across the sea. Carthage saw the most success, Hannibal's conquest was praised by many of the island nations but he found himself is contention with the Gaulic tribes of old who demanded the return of their ancestral homes. Emboldened by Romes defeat hey would raid and harass Carthage for years to come.

Meanwhile in Greece local feuds would reignite between the true Greek city states and the supposed wannabe Macedonia. The lords there would strike the first blow unknowingly to either empire and by the time news reached the Pharaoh of Egypt and the Emperor of Parthia it was too late. The fighting would escalate with no end in sight as both found themselves funding a proxy war whos aggression would slowly find it's way back to their respective capitals.

In Egypt, religious radicle found their way into the Great Pharaoh's council sparking some of the most unproductive, bloody battles in the Mediterranean. It was they who first attacked the people of Sinai, a move that offended years of Egyptian Persian peace. However with the growing movement the Pharaoh had no choice but to back his advisor's party or risk empire wide revolt. After years of successful campaigns both sides would field disciplined, seasoned warriors whos resolve for empire dominance would stack body after body.

Despite the differences between Carthage and the Late Pharaoh, Egypt under it's new rule established
lasting peace between the African nations but such a peace like any other was build on equality.

12 May 22 UTC Spring, 10: Once upon a time there was a lovely
princess. But she had an enchantment
upon her of a fearful sort which could
only be broken by love's first kiss.
She was locked away in a castle guarded
by a terrible fire-breathing dragon.
Many brave knights had attempted to
free her from this dreadful prison,
but non prevailed. She waited in the
dragon's keep in the highest room of
the tallest tower for her true love
and true love's first kiss. (laughs)
Like that's ever gonna happen. What
a load of - (toilet flush)
12 May 22 UTC Spring, 10: Allstar - by Smashmouth begins to play. Shrek goes about his
day. While in a nearby town, the villagers get together to go
after the ogre.
12 May 22 UTC Spring, 10: NIGHT - NEAR SHREK'S HOME

MAN1
Think it's in there?

MAN2
All right. Let's get it!

MAN1
Whoa. Hold on. Do you know what that
thing can do to you?

MAN3
Yeah, it'll grind your bones for it's
bread.
12 May 22 UTC Spring, 10: Shrek sneaks up behind them and laughs.

SHREK
Yes, well, actually, that would be a
giant. Now, ogres, oh they're much worse.
They'll make a suit from your freshly
peeled skin.

MEN
No!

SHREK
They'll shave your liver. Squeeze the
jelly from your eyes! Actually, it's
quite good on toast.

MAN1
Back! Back, beast! Back! I warn ya!
(waves the torch at Shrek.)

Shrek calmly licks his fingers and extinguishes the torch. The
men shrink back away from him. Shrek roars very loudly and long
and his breath extinguishes all the remaining torches until the
men are in the dark.

SHREK
This is the part where you run away.
(The men scramble to get away. He laughs.)
And stay out! (looks down and picks
up a piece of paper. Reads.) "Wanted.
Fairy tale creatures."(He sighs and
throws the paper over his shoulder.)
12 May 22 UTC Spring, 10: THE NEXT DAY

There is a line of fairy tale creatures. The head of the guard
sits at a table paying people for bringing the fairy tale creatures
to him. There are cages all around. Some of the people in line
are Peter Pan, who is carrying Tinkerbell in a cage, Gipetto
who's carrying Pinocchio, and a farmer who is carrying the three
little pigs.
