Slimy eyes and children's skin,
bloody entrails poured right in.
Toss the hair, grind the bones,
ignoring all the 'gredients moans.
Apocalypse pie, apocalypse pie,
when it's made you're going to die.
Don't you fret: have a slice,
I'll leave you to your own device.
Fold the screams in the dough,
made for those who wait below
scorch and blast, super heat,
to quiet the hunger of the meat.
Apocalypse pie, apocalypse pie,
when it's made you're going to die.
Don't resist: have a clue,
Once made there's nothing you can do.
Best to eat when it's raw,
lest it take you in it's maw.
Laced with pain, filled with hurts.
The world ending is just desserts.
Apocalypse pie, apocalypse pie,
when it's made you're going to die.
Don't you scream: show dismay,
It was meant to happen this way.

That is legitimately scary.

Re: [Welknair Update/Game Idea] Fourth Land
Wow, that is creepy. Nothing like what I was originally thinking of, that being the poem "Alligator pie". I like this version, though.

I'll take them as compliments, since that was my intention. I wanted to write a poem today.....I wasn't expecting this, however. :smalleek:

Sooooo... how's art going? Hopefully not writing poetry?
EDIT: I'm stealing that for my "epic quotes" folder. Some villain in five or ten years will say that to PCs, and I will think of you.

That's phrased strange, but I get the jist...I think. Art is alright? I don't get to do it as much as I'd like, because I like to be social while I do it, and I don't get to interact with people as often. However, writing, and music making have been going swimmingly! I wrote a song with a musical friend back on monday. :smallsmile:
Hopefully in 5 to 10 years, you'll be able to thank me still!

Duly noted. I may or may not be including "Epicness" as well.
And that nursery rhyme is positively terrifying.

Re: [Welknair Update/Game Idea] Fourth Land
Madness! (seriously though, madness).

Re: [Welknair Update/Game Idea] Fourth Land
If awesomeness would make someone stop and stare, would likeness make someone more likely to become addicted to the object in question?"My Precious..." comes to mind...

Re: [Welknair Update/Game Idea] Fourth Land
Luckness? Valueness? Would something that doesn't have any 'nesses in it but has the potential to have 2 or 3 be a Ness-ness?

Re: [Welknair Update/Game Idea] Fourth Land
Alright, then, it is time for Icastfireball to contribute something to this thread, because insofar as I can tell, everyone has either missed this clue or not paid attention to it. Maybe it means nothing, maybe this is just Welknair's way of teasing us, or maybe someone has already mentioned it and I didn't read through the thread carefully enough
but...

But it IS a complicated and, I believe, unique system. If anything, it reminds me more of the Slaad lifecycle. But again, it isn't exactly analagous to that either.

P.S. This is the first time that I've actually posted in the forums for well over a year. I guess it takes something pretty incredible to get me motivated enough to actually... you know... do something. But this game is beyond incredible. Saying that it's incredible is like saying that the ocean is wet, you know? Technically true, but a vast understatement, simply because there are no words to describe it. So... yeah. Keep up the good work, Welknair. And know that you have at least one person who will buy Fourthland, come Hell or high water.

I'd be willing to bet that anyone who's posted here would pay good money to get this game... and probably fund it as well.

Re: [Welknair Update/Game Idea] Fourth Land
@Icastfireball- I noticed the tick tock ect. thing since the beginning posts, actually! We've discovered through the "ask welknair 4 questions" event that these are the first six cycles of the "Full cycle" of things in fourth land:

Beings in Fourthland do not live linear lives as we do, but instead cycle about, through existence and non-existence, with the periods growing longer each time. The Mother Cycle is the longest of these and precedes the repetition of the Full Cycle.
My response after was partially "correct" and partially me misinterpretting "Full Cycle" to be the name of another cycle. What I believe is there is a waxing and waning to six characteristics (existence and non-existence) So tick is the heightened existence of...something, and tock is the converse. Or something like that. I was considering asking about the others other than Grand, Father, and Mother, but we didn't know they were all Cycles at the time, just that they existed. But good eye! and pickle?

Re: [Welknair Update/Game Idea] Fourth Land
My my, I have not been forgotten! I give you my most sincere apologies for my recent absence, things IRL have been very hectic, and I've been managing a large Minecraft RP server to boot. However, I have some interesting new ideas for Fourthland, and certainly plan to continue it. Time to reread my notes, for the fourth time :smalltongue: And welcome, Icastfireball! Have some swordness pie!

Greatness, my friend. Oh, and boundless insanity, but who cares about that when there's greatness involved?

Re: [Welknair Update/Game Idea] Fourth Land
So I take it that you enjoyed it/want it to die in fire?

Re: [Welknair Update/Game Idea] Fourth Land
I love it. I kind of want to make my own version now... Garage band perhaps...
But yes, that was awesome. Thank you, Amechra. I'm certainly happy to see something I've written get some sort of "fandom".

Re: [Welknair Update/Game Idea] Fourth Land

I'm a HUGE fan of songs inspired by games and to have a song and video for it of MY game is quite gratifying :smallbiggrin:

Curios as to what's up with this my good friend.
