    617*

    your crazy freind is an inventor, who has somehow invented a short range teleporter which sends you flyingthrough time. which is cool, as it sends you after the princess you randomly met at the fair. while stuck in time, you discover you have no future, the guy history pegs as pure evil is kinda coll and is actually trying to stop the monster that destroys everything, cavepeople know all abou disco and electronics, and you meet a frog knight. your time period of this world explicitly has no magic and dosen't believe in it, even though your flinging it around like there's no tommorow

    * we seem to have jumped back to 612 once already

    619: An epic half-fiend orc blackguard has finally gathered the largest concentrated force of orcs, goblins, bugbears, hobgoblins, ogres, hill giants, trolls, and gnolls in recorded history. The vast army has just conquered your kingdom in a terribly one-sided battle, and now you are all slaves under their rule as they hand out orders. And good golly, do they need their laundry done.

    In reality this has all been staged by the True-Namers along with spreading the idea that they suck so everyone is surprised when they pulls out the infinite gates.
