Gentlemen, I bring news from the war. Grave news. Treachery! Dishonour! Infamy! Scumbagism of the highest sort!
Someone ... I can hardly bring myself to say it. Someone attacked one of Santa's Party Associates!
Yes! It's true. The dishonourable Bessho dogs sent a metsuke to waylay our harmless, innocent Missionary of Santa while he walked through their territory. Walked! Walked - not burned, not ravaged, not preached. The poor, sweet, gentle, innocent man was merely doing his best to bypass the mountain range problem which splits our lands. He was on his way to invite the Matsuda to ... well, more on that later. Fortunately he managed to escape from his prison cell, and returned to resume his mission. This is the only good news I can offer.
We shall not take this lying down. No, nor shall we take it sitting down, standing up, or whilst jumping up and down in rage! We shall not take it at all - except to take it straight back to the shop for a refund or exchange!
We will build a great bypass, a road which will allow easy travel in our lands and put an end to this difficulty in moving from north to south and vice versa. Yes, a grand road. Once completed it will be known as 'The Road' and our rivals shall tremble and weep at the very roadishness of it! It will have the best paving, the cleanest pavements, the widest girth, and the best roadside facilities in the history of mankind! Yea, and it shalt have a tea shop which serves tea that shall not taste like the stripper of paint, and verily shalt its meat based restaurant dishes contain cuts from the better parts of the animal and the vegetarian option shalt not be quorn but instead the tastiest of vegetables! So it is written, so let it be done.
What's that you say? What about the Bessho? Well isn't that obvious? Gah! No imagination, some people! Where else are we going to get the white paint required to do the road markings with, if not from their ground up bones?
A full report, including pictures, will follow.
The imposters on Kyushu must wait, as must the tragically grey blob seated to our west. The Road must be constructed; vengeance must be Santa's!
