A squadron of knights arrives in Dauerdale, a sleepy hamlet near the eastern borders of the Kingdom of Prosperia.
Knight: Open up! Prince Richie has come to examine his new castle!

The gate opens, and Lady Emela, one of the kingdom's most renown knights, steps out.
Emela: I am afraid that repairs are not yet complete, my lord. I assure you that my men are working day and night to have this castle prepared for you.

Prince Richie: I don’t care if it’s ready, I want to see the boobs! I mean castle! Uh… nice breastplate, by the way.

Princess Flibatrinaria ("Flibby") of Rodayn, a neighboring kingdom: Oh, Richie, you said you had eyes only for me!
Richie: Of course, dear, of course.
Emela:

Meanwhile, in a nearby tavern…

Muscle Squad: Press! Press! Press! Press!

Buffgar: RRAAAAGGHHH
Muscle Squad: *goes nuts*

Barkeeper Alice: Pipe down, ya smelly hooligans! This is a respectable establishment!

Muscle Squad: We don’t have to listen to you! We’re mature, adult males and that means we never respect women or listen to what they have to say!

Alice: I’ll teach you a thing or two about respecting women, ya oversized monkeys.
Meanwhile, in a nearby swamp…

Witch: *humming* Double, double, toil and trouble…

Cauldron: *explodes*

Witch: Well bless my bodice, I seem to have torn open a portal into hell!

Fallen Angel: Hyahahahahaha!!!

FSSSSHHHHH

Fallen Angel: Forth, my minions! Our time has come! Ravage this pathetic village and bring me its leader, that I may drag him back to my burning boudoir in chains!

Watchman: Alert! Alert! Enemies approach from the swamp!

Emela: Form up, men. Looks like we have some work to do.

Robbin’ the Hood: Great, all these rich nobles running around with their purses hanging out and I have to go defend the village… Just my luck.

Prince Richie: Enemies? Lemme at ‘em!
Princess Flibby: No, my beloved! You didn’t bring your sword! Let the knights handle this, we’ll watch. Look, I brought snacks.
Prince Richie: Ooh, pizza!
