Thanks Chris for attempting to do Conan’s voice in a Schwarzenegger voice, and Chad for turning it southern. :p
This story reminded me of Watership Down when the rabbits came to Cowslip’s Warren. Xuthal is very much like Cowslip’s Warren in that the residents are given everything they need to survive so they turn to dreams and nihilism and Thog/the farmer just takes a few every once in a while and the residents are too complacent to do anything about it.
