A somber tale. · 7:45pm Aug 30th, 2013
One day, king Sombra called in his legate and said - "It is time to collect taxes. Gather up velites and go. Take everything valuable." Legate bowed and walked out.
Two days later, legate returned, bringing back a rich take. Sombra asked him - "Is that all? What were the ponies doing when you collected it?" Legate responded - "They cursed your name, your eminence." Sombra frowned - "Get out. They have more to take."
