Two natural disasters happening in one week, is it a coincidence or a curse?
It's that time of the year again, where the ghouls, skeletons and witches crawl out from the dark. Halloween has turned into an exciting holiday for the students of Woodcrest to dress up sexy, quirky, and scary costumes then party the night away. But should we be fearful this year of history repeating itself? We spoke with Omega's President, Abbie Vicious, to get her viewpoint of the freak house fire that engulfed her beloved Greek home.
“I swear our house was burned down because of this curse!” -Abbie Vicious, Omega President
The Curse of Woodcrest
In the year 1692, when the first pilgrims of Woodcrest formed their was belief of a greater power in the beavers settled around the land's lakes and rivers. The pilgrims studied the beavers and their building techniques, thus using this knowledge to form the civilized town of early Woodcrest.
A rebellious villager, named Benedict Hoover did not believe the lore of the beavers and their supposed immortal abilities. To prove his point, Benedict then hunted one and returned to Woodcrest and displayed the beaver to the township. Everyone remained in shock and awe at how he managed to slay their idol, now suspicious of whether their ideology was foolish or not.
As the week past, Benedict was seen madly groping and scratching at his groin. He walked with high knees and continuously tugged at his trousers. The township began to worry as to what has come a hold of him, thus isolating him from the rest of the town. The local physician evaluated him and speculating it was a severe case of a poison ivy rash. While the town around his isolation began having peculiar natural disasters that relentlessly destroyed their silos, homes, stables and more. Whether it was a sinkhole swallowing the town church, locusts destroying the crops, or a flash flood washing away the commissary food pantry.
Another week passes and Benedict is frantic and slowly losing his grip on reality as the itching intensity increased tenfold and most of the town in ruins, leaving the township to live in fear. Benedict realized his final solution was to properly send off the innocent beaver he killed. Benedict held a ceremony near the lake he caught the beaver and apologized through sobs before the other beavers that inhabited the lake.
Upon returning home, Benedict felt an instant relief to his rash as the blotches and scratch marks seemed to nearly vanish from him. Following up with the physician, who analyzed the situation; he dubbed the rash iratus rursus (Angry Itch).
With over 300 years passing, natural disasters have sprung up again and mercilessly taking out the two Greek Houses, Omega and DAM. One life has been claimed by the catastrophe.
We know the out break of iratus rursus has already begun with four cases having been reported. Be sure to protect yourself with the latest vaccine over at the medical center. Vaccines will be given out for free and walk-ins are accepted.
