Good chapter!
I'm with everyone else - keep your army together, and deal with the gnome king later. After all, considering the size of your army, all you'll really have to do is catch up to him.
By the way - I really liked how the fate of the Cow paralleled that of the city. At first it seemed there was a victory, but then WHAM! your forces split in two. Just like the poor cow. Anyway, liking it so keep it up

Oooh, wait, wait, I've got it!
What was it that split the city gates? Some demon or some such?
Send HIM after the group of gnomes.
After all, the cow split in two, and then the head rolled towards Resio and his mage friend, so it only seems fitting that the head of the gnomes is captured by the one that split the city apart!
Just a symbolic thing I caught onto and posted...
You don't HAVE to do it Chin.

Mmm. You mean some kind of assassin type? The creatures that opened the gates were (some kind) of undead wraith types, only really usable in shadow, which is why the army waited until night to attack.
Also I think that Phang wants the King alive so she can 'play' with him.
Still, it is a worthy idea. *goes away to mull over*

Polling is now open for the last 'Homer' chapter.
I put the poll up after the chapter. I am torn between doing it this way and on a chapter by chapter basis.
Preferences? I could have put the poll up on the bottom of this thread, but I like to read the chapter before voting.
Anyway, this one is at the end of Chapter whatever it was!

I agree!
The pic took me about 2 days to choose! I have a ton of good ones, but I wanted one that looked at least a bit representative of the story! It's a bit small though, I had to squeeze it down a lot. That cruel Key would let me post it any bigger. Maybe I will post the full size one somewhere in here, just for interest.

LOL.
I have changed this thread into a general chat one, as the dicussions for each chapter go up in, er, each chapter.
Hence I won't be updating this one after posting new episodes any more.

Great idea! This is my favorite storygame in the whole city of IF.
Where is the sign-up thread? I'd like to be a charecter in this storygame, but I don't know how to get in.

You need to head over to the Market Bizarre to find the Greed Auction thread.
Then make an offer of fables for how you want your character to be portrayed in the story. Be prepared for people to counter your bid to making you into something perhaps a little less impressive.
A chamber pot or slug springs to mind
Happy Writing

Yes indeed, you can bid away as Smee says in the marketplace. If you read the thread you will get some idea of what chaos can ensue though! So be ready for something terrible
Alternatively, if you hang around IF for long enough, you will be added in "randomly" when I need a new character, and don't worry, I don't plan on ending this story for a little while yet.

Ah. Ok. Well, I'm not exactly rich in terms of fables, so I guess I'll wait for a while. Also, that makes sense, because I thought that you just randomly added charecters in and so Phang got lucky and her little sluggywuggy didn't. Smee, I'll always think of you as a big green slug.
Anyway, back from rambling, what kind of bid would get you to be something like... oh... Dean the Head?

Well, Dean didn't exactly ask to be a head - it happened afterwards. Most bids are generally quite small, though there are a few ecceptions.*
See Here for more details on the bids.
*Most notably the thousand fable plus bid that decided the outcome of the fight between Lordy (me) against the Twisted Witch and her pet dragon. I had to fork out 1551 fables to win that one. And the character of Lordy only cost me a mere 50 fables to buy.
