Dialogue

The people had begun to call him Mad King Thorn. He would yell for no apparent reason, and his jokes... Oh, those horrifying jokes that made him laugh. The nickname stuck for good on the day of the Tax Massacre.

(if you have obtained Mad Memoires X: Tax-o'-Lanterns)

I've heard this before.

Have you ever smelled rotting pumpkin? Like really smelled it? Put your face in it?

No, thank you.

(Otherwise)

What happened?

He rounded up anyone with unpaid taxes, put pumpkins on their heads instead of hoods, and hanged them on the wall. The pumpkins rotted...

Thanks. I'll make a record of your story. (Receives Mad Memoires X: Tax-o'-Lanterns)

I must go.

Just passing through.
