Draconian Blog Hunt
Hello Readers all! Hearken to the Wyvern's Den!
My apologies for not posting in so long, but we have had a few malfunctions with the Draconian Letters; including a nefarious zebra, a narcoleptic insomniac, and a pound of cherry preserve, but some on that later.
I have created this post as a fun offshoot of a scavenger hunt, which will span the entire data pages of Iron Wyvern, where you will be given the name of Dragon, and must link it with his/her title. When the 'scavenger hunt' is finished, the reward will be...I'll tell you after..
The name you must link with it's title IIIIS!.....Swamptongue the....!....... A capricious all-time employee of Laziness, and permanent resident of Yovi, the Dragon may be hard to find, but that's just the point!
Enjoy!

Book Two Letter Thirty Three
My Dearest Nephew,
Ignore the sentence above. I made more than one attempt at
writing this letter is all and after a while the nurses here at the house of
healing I am currently bunking in refused to give me more sheets of parchment
after I crumpled up and burned my 36th attempt. The nerve!
Anyway, I am
in a hospital at the moment, thanks to your uncle Scaligar’s ungrateful
behavior, but I am getting ahead of myself.
It started
when I came to rescue him and that Drakess from their icy demise on the frozen
tundra, wait, no, it really started when your father Rorfang married your
mother and we met for the first time. I shall never forget that day, what
fireworks there were and there weren’t even supposed to be fireworks at your
parents’ wedding! But anyway, telling the story of my injuries at your uncle’s
hands from there would take a very long time.
I set out
from the refueling station where I had questioned the Drakes about the location
where they had marooned your uncle Scaligar and the Drakess, intending to do my
best to rescue them. Seeing as I would be all but blind and totally unable to
locate your uncle in the blizzard by sight, I decided to put the ol’ elemental
Pearl to use and turn to forces of nature to help me along my rescue quest.
I influenced
the blizzard around me to locate your uncle Scaligar and concentrate itself
around his position. A brilliant plan, eh? If your uncle and the Drakess
sheltering with him from the storm did not die of cold and exposure too soon, I
would be sure to find them and rescue them.
When I found
your uncle after a few hours of searching through the blizzard, I descended in
magnificent Draconian glory (don’t believe a word of this crashing headfirst
into the snow thing your uncle Scaligar fabricated)
At first your
uncle and the Drakess seemed quite happy to see me and Scaligar ran to me and
fell upon my neck and wept and told me he was sorry for all of the terrible
things he had done to me over the years and that he would clean my cave and do
my laundry for the rest of his days in penitence.
I accepted
his apology gracefully and said to him “Let us kill the fatted turkey and roast
it, for my brother has apologized for all of the heinous crimes he has
committed and has said that he shall do my laundry…”
Very well,
none of that actually happened although your uncle did seem glad to see me
right up until I told him how I had made the storm stronger around him to find
him at which point he began to inflict upon me the injuries that put me into
this house of healing.
After he had
sent me flying into the snow after a triple spin punch and a wackerdoodle tail
kick and I had spent my last reserves of breath quipping “You’re welcome” YOUR
UNCLE SCALIGAR PROCEEDED TO USE MY ELEMENTAL PEARL TO MANIPULATE THE STORMS AND
SEND THEM AWAY!!!!!!!!!!! MY ELEMENTAL PEARL!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Note: this
letter was sent without a signature as it had to be taken from the possession
of the patient by the name of Semithino in ward 7 as he appeared to have
deteriorated into a state of frothing fury and had to be led away to quiet room
for a series of deep breathing and yoga sessions lest he hurt somebody.

proverbial chair for our next interview.......SECRET AGENT SPINK!!
Agent Spink: why is the chair proverbial?
Z. Baner: Performance tax, expenses are up and intakes are down. Let’s just
say we’ll welcome you to the visceral stool of enlightenment. See how it glows!
Agent Spink: is that white paint and glitter glue?
Z. Baner: Mind your own business!
Agent Spink: You wanna piece o’ me! Comm’on! BINKAWADOOOOOO!!!!!!!<(ancient
Bulgarian food fight rouser)
J Baner: Anyway!*(give the man back his toupee, Z)*Lets get back onto this
show. So; Mr. Spink, what is your exact line of work?
Agent Spink: Well, I run an
agency incorporating several Secret Agent Spink artisans, including my own TV
show, Secret Agent Spink fitness equipment, Secret Agent Spink action figures,
and even I even run the Secret Agent Spink Super Hair Toupee shop—
Z. Baner: Dang right, that hairpiece looked like horsehair.
Agent Spink: I do not wear a toupee, my fine example of an equestrian posterior.
Z. Baner: Keep it up baldy, and you’ll be opening a Spink Skin Graft shop
soon…
J. Baner: Lets change the subject shall we?
Agent Spink: Gladly.

end of each episode.
J. Baner: How, er, sadistic.

Z. Baner: Spink, call off Darth Vader and stop stealing the whistling mangoes,
you’ll make us look childish. I think we’ll cut off this interview for now, as
the property tax will probably be sending a foreclosure on this warehouse soon.

Weekend Disaster Post - The Conundrum Involving Two Griffins, a Baseball Bat, Etc.
Welcome, readers of the Post! This week's edition of the Post involves a rather perplexing story involving two griffins, a baseball bat, and three fire-breathing dwarves from the kingdom of Quetzackortipakifarkle.
This past weekend a raging fire swept through several counties, devastating miles upon miles of precious property. Luckily, no one was hurt, except for little Tommy "Get-a-life" Whiner, who purportedly received a papercut during the evacuation. The fire devastated the land, however, leaving behind the question of whether this disaster occurred naturally or more unnaturally.
Says Fire Marshall Nick Colossus, "WE HAD SOME SUSPICIONS ABOUT SOME PEOPLE [in those counties] WHO HAD REPORTEDLY BEEN PLAYING WITH MATCHES AND WHATNOT, BUT THAT WASN'T REALLY MY GLASS OF EGGNOG, SO I GAVE THE INVESTIGATION TO FIREMAN SAM, MY DEPUTY."

Announcement: Camp NaNoWriMo Completed!
Welcome, dear readers of the insane hamster domination sagas we spew out every now and then. If you're an insane hamster with a plan for world domination, pardon the joke, please.
We three, the legendary JTZ (haha I rhymed; did you see that? I bet you didn't!), came together in the great month of July with a quest for words, and we prevailed with outstanding superbness! If that's not a word, it should be. We all signed up for Camp NaNoWriMo (look it up if you don't know what it is) and we all succeeded in macho fashion after a deathly battle with such foes as Writer's Block, Distraction (that was definitely my biggest foe), Annoyance, the Inner Editor, and all other forces of Chaos! Hurray!
If any of ye readers also participated in NaNoWriMo, even if you didn't succeed, leave a comment notifying us of your achievement and we will congratulate you in our next post.
Meanwhile, to unveil the first additions to our 2013 Writing Hall of Flame Fame:
