>Emanda asks, "Sayaka is beed ready?"

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "Now I am not the speaker for my clan, but I recall a few old stories as told by the old speakers. I will try to tell one in the common language""

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "You have all heard the tales of "Murrula and the Three Turnips", "The Account of The Turnip King", the old story-"How the Olvi Won the 'Tog Turnip Eating Contest", and the epic poetry of the Gor'Tog - Goblin Turnip Wars.""

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "And today I shall tell you the "Tale of Urrem'tiers' Turnip.""

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "The Gor'Tog Barbarian and the Dwarven Cleric were again discussing whose turnips were better, "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "the Halfling Bard was wisely to the side agreeing with each in turn, but holding for her own. "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "Dwarf said his was as almost as broad as himself, but much sweeter, and more filling. "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "Gor'Tog said his was the strongest turnip ever. "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "Halfing agreed with both, but replied that hers had greens that could regrow in a day, and the turnip was as tall as she."

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "They proposed a judging for the next day."

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "Dwarf prayed that night to his chosen god Truffenyi, begging him to make his turnip as broad as he was for the judging. "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "Halfling asked for help from Faenella, to make her turnip as tall as she, and Gor'Tog prayed to Urrem'tier."

>Sayaka rolls his eyes.

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "Barbarians""

>Sayaka chuckles.

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "The next day the three met to do the judging. The Dwarf and Halfling each prayed strongly, and pulled out their large turnips divided them into three and tried them. "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "Halfling looked at Dwarf and laughed, saying "Yes, sweet and it is almost as broad as you are now, as Huldah has changed you into an Elothian". "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "The now-Elothian laughed and said, "Yes, the greens are delicious and it is as tall as you are, as Idon has re-made you into a Gnome." "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "The Gor'Tog seeing what had happened, took his time and prayed. "Urrem'Tier - make this turnip as large and strong as you are." "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "He pulled out his turnip out of the sack. It was very small, the deepest violet of the sky, with dark purple-red greens. "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "The now-Elothian and now-Gnome laughed until tears came from their eyes. "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "They said the contest was over, a tie between Dwarf and Halfling."

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "However Gor'Tog persuaded them to partake of his tiny turnip, to make sure all was fair or Rutilor might not return their forms."

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "They divided the turnip into three and cooked the greens. Phew, the odor was worse than Tarumpaki on washing day, only the Gor'Tog could stomach that. "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "They then each ate their nibble of the turnip, tears sprang into their eyes! "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "Dwarf jumped down the well, Halfling drenched herself with jug after jug of water, and Gor'Tog ran and jumped into and tried to drink the lake. "

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "It was the strongest turnip ever, sharper than the red peppers of Theren, stronger than the Gor'Tog, as strong as Urrem'Tier."

>Sayaka says in Toggish, "That is why we now call the turnip that won the contest, the small purple-black turnips with the purple-red greens "Urrem'tiers' Turnip""

>Sayaka says, "This-'tog not is speecher, but is know talk of talk.""

>Sayaka says, "You-furry is heerd dem talks - "Firey-Bird-God-Furry 'n Some Turnips", "Tell of King Turnip", 'n of How Small-Furry is Best All'Tog Turnip Eater, 'n long sing-tell of 'Tog-Smelly-Mans Turnip Fite.""

>Sayaka smile.

>Sayaka says, "Now this-'Tog is talk story of "Dark-God-Furry Turnip""

>Sayaka says, "Bear-'Tog 'n' Holy-Dwarf is was talk "best turnip is mine", "

>Sayaka says, "Song-Small-furry is was side both, 'n' says "mine too". "

>Sayaka grins.

>Sayaka says, "Dwarf was say as fat as Dwarf, was more good. "

>Sayaka says, "'Tog was say "is most strong". "

>Sayaka says, "Small-furry look, laff, is say "Yes, is sweet, is fat is you, causing' trick-weasel-god-furry is make you is big-head-furry." "

>Sayaka says, "now-Big-head-furry laff is say "Yes, is good top, is tall is you, causin' tall-bird-god-furry is make you is tiny-furry"

---Sayaka missed putting this line in---

'Tog knowed is-what-is, 'Tog beed slow, is prayed, "Dark-God-Furry is make turnips is big is you is big, is strong is you is strong."
