It is known that from the heart of Our Most Holy Father springs forth eternal joy and salvation and indeed it is well to hear this good news again and yet again from every mouth, so that we may rejoice anew in the blessing of grace which shines from the heavens as does the light from the sun. Yet it does seem meet at this time to retell of a dream I had anon, in which a stranger, clad in rags, came to my door and complained of a terrible thirst. Charity being a high most noble virtue which renders fair the most abject of men, I hurried forth bearing a vessel filled with the most wonderful honey and vinegar drink and served him from a fine jeweled cup. As he drank, I began to speak and said unto him “Did you know this is actually mediev--” and at that very moment his rags fell away to reveal fine rainments and lo! This angel saith unto me in a voice beautiful and gentle and terrible “LOOK EVERYONE KNOWS SKEUJABAN IS MEDIEVAL GATORADE BY NOW YOU DON’T HAVE TO SAITH IT EVERY TIME THOU DOST BREAK THE JUG OUT. WHEN THEY GAVE ME VINEGAR AND HYSSOP THEY DID NOT TELL ME IT WAS ROMAN GATORADE EVERY TWO MINUTES GIVE IT A REST. ” and at this I fell to my knees in terror and joy for I knew that I truly this was the word of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who did thirst upon the cross and who found it meet to come unto me in a dream so that I may spread this word among the populace of Atlantia, his chosen people.
