[Askthepizzaguy]

A silence fills the Citadel...

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

For more than a thousand years the Muslim horde has spread it's religious teachings, and for a thousand years, we have suffered the existence of the Catholics, the Orthodox Christians, the Jews, the Pagans, the Hindus, the Buddhists, and many other heretical factions. Many centuries have passed since the Islamic civilization was ruled with an iron fist by the one known as the Caliph of all Islam, the bearer of the sacred bloodline, the next incarnation of Mohammed the Holy Prophet, servant of Allah, and the right hand of God.

For a brief time, the Catholics were united under the brutal and tyrannical reign of Kaiser Askthepizzaguy of the Holy Roman Empire, which took control of all of Europe in a devastating campaign unlike any ever before witnessed by the eyes of man...

However, there rose a mighty figure, whose powers were an even match for this Kaiser, and when tested in battle, the Kaiser was overthrown, and
Sultan Grog the Magnificent of the Ottoman Empire rose to power.

Some seasons passed...

But then darkness fell upon the Ottoman Turks, for the wrath of Askthepizzaguy was beyond time... beyond space... beyond life... beyond death. From the ashes of the Holy Roman Empire... came the most sickeningly evil creature of them all...

the Death God Jalal of the Holy Islamic Caliphate!

EVERYTHING HAS BEEN UPLOADED, CAPTIONS COMPLETE!!!
