Chapter 467; in which Squire conquers the Castle.

The inhabitants quivered in their fancy jewelled boots. "What IS that?", the princess whispered. "THE SQUIRE MONSTER", the Queen was able to say with a slightly raised voice (Queens don't scream, obviously) before she fainted.

Outside, the furry Godzquirrel** circled the building several times, grabbing chunks of the castle* with his mouth.

The Princess paced around the room, carefully stepping over her mother's motionless body. "What to do? Oh, what do I do?"

The Squire monster, mouth full of castle* stepped away a few paces, closed its eyes and held out its vicious claws. It seemed to be doing a spell? A curse? Would the castle fall?

The Princess decided the best course of action was to join her mother on the floor. Surely by the time she'd come to, a handsome Prince would have solved all her problems.*cough*delusional*cough*



*that's what the Princess thought, anyway, the bint.

(I've wanted something for the Squire to climb on since I can't remember when. And seeing the lovely Be's fantastic squirrel Blips only made me want it more. He was hesitant at first, but the lure of the peanuts proved too much :))
