Beware of Snows Goons! (March 8, 2015)
Run while you can! It's too late for us...too late for us all.

Who could have possibly guessed that raising an unholy army of Snow Goons (albeit tiny ones) would have calamitous consequences as the cadre of cold conquerors continue their cadaverous coup to its catastrophic conclusion!

The unusually cold snow that forms the base of their evil essence made it more difficult to form and shape them, forcing us to use...extreme measures, comparable to the extreme cold which we faced last month, and the cold that is in the depth of our hearts. Of course there are the naysayers who (besides 'nay') say that we could have waited a few hours for the temperature to rise. But time was not our ally and we needed our army to rise and could not wait for the temperature to do so first. Thus we invoked ancient powers and forces that we thought we understood and, fools though we were, thought we could control. Imagine our giddy delight when we saw them take shape, defying the so-called laws of physics, science, and nature itself. To stand, to move, TO LIVE! TO LIVE I SAY!

The Snow Goons began to rise.
At first they shambled about in their seemingly mindless way, so tiny, so harmless, so helpless. So we thought.

The first thing a Snow Goon does, other than attempting to destroy its creators, is to create more Snow Goons.

We watched them trudge around in the snow, going round and around, moving tiny piles of snow here and there. We laughed at them, never realizing what they were doing and how our time for action was running out.

Imagine our horror as it dawned upon us that that which we sought to control was, in fact, beyond us and more powerful than we could imagine, creating beings even more monstrous than themselves. The sound of rock cracking, deep and bass, shook the ground upon which we stood. A twisted smile faced us, as we understood what doom our folly, our blind ambition had wrought.

We fled. But we know it's only a matter of time now before their vast and tiny armies...wait...what's that noise? Oh no! It can't be! Not this soon! Not so many! So strong! So tiny!
