There are few as proud as what they’ve done as an envoy
Roy has been delivering things since he was a boy
No monster has ever stopped his quest along the way
With his stamina he can keep going night and day
Everybody, young and old, was gathered in the square
The messengers had come to speak to everybody there
Ignoring all the damage in the little town they’d found
One messenger spoke with a booming voice that would resound
“Subjects of our noble kingdom, we are here today
Sharing the decree of our king, whom you must obey
As you know, the kingdom has seen peace for many years
But the gods have brought to light a number of new fears
It’s come to our attention that a boy is living here
Who has seen System Messages, which so rarely appear
You must bring him to us by the order of the king
We must bring the boy back with us now for questioning”
Log knew what what happen, but he could act in time
Even though they all knew to resist would be a crime
“I will never give my son to you or anyone
Get the heck out of my village, your job here is done”

Half the village rolled their eyes, her words were expected
But these messengers made it clear, the would be respected
Roy came forward right away to put her in her place
But he was greeted with one of Log’s big fists in his face
Both the envoys were surprised at what had just occurred
Especially the one upon the ground, whose voice was heard
“Do you dare assault an envoy sent here by your king?”
He stopped talking when he noticed his nose was bleeding
Log stepped forward and offered the messenger a hand
Roy was shocked but took the big man’s help to slowly stand
“I guess they don’t teach city boys the appraisal skill
If you need someone to show you how, I gladly will”
Roy held his nose firmly while is colleague looked in awe
They boy used their appraisal skills and gawked at what they saw
As they looked around with the skill, everybody smiled
Compared to their stats, his looked like they belonged to a child

Economicalopoly
Humanity had gotten this far. How far, might you be wondering? Quite far indeed. The world had effectively become an ecumenopolis, almost; not in real life at least, in Economicalopoly of course! More on that later, in our story the main character is Charlie. Charlie was an exceptionally talented young man, the key word being 'was'. He was an incredibly unmotivated individual who generally steered clear from other 'Homo sapiens' as he put it. This was all because of an accident he had early on in life, when he was but 15 years old.
