The Blue Fox Alley

I say ‘ho!’ to you fellow sojourners of the Blue Fox Alley and I claim your attention!

In your eyes, I see a thirst in you. A thirst that cannot be satisfied with your silly groping of women. A thirst that grows while you drown yourself with ale. So perk your ears and listen up! Wake your mate with your best punch! Because when my eloquent P-Meister and I have a lyrical tingle to share with you all, it is something that no man ought to miss.

So what do you think defines a great tale? Is it a great struggle between the forces of light and darkness? An elegy of the clash of two great kingdoms and a forbidden love caught in the midst of it? Here at the Blue Fox Alley, we shall unravel the secret of creating the greatest fantasy story evar!

 Here is how the first stroke of the harp goes…

.The world in the story must have an ancient evil god that threatens the world with the possibility of TOTAL destruction.

.A long time ago, a champion vanquished the evil god and sealed him away in a castle. However with the passing of time, the seal on the evil weakens and he is free once more!

.A hero is chosen by a kingdom, with great GDP and low inflation, to defeat the evil god.

.Hero must have romance with the kingdom’s princess.

.Hero will not know of princess’ real identity while she mingles with him initially. But she will be forced to reveal it in order to help the hero from a dilemma! The SHOCKU!

.Hero must use a sword.

.Hero must have sword techniques like Whirlwind Blade Technique or Fire Slash or Hundred Blades.

.There be magic and elements to make the story cool.

.The hero will embark on a journey with a group of comrades. An archer, a mage and a rouge are a MUST.

.Hero will have an evil elder brother who is always in his way. And the evil elder brother must always wear black and have a stupid smirk on his super bishie face so fans will want to have his babies. 

.Evil elder brother turns out to be actually a GOOD GUY and all his evil deeds were for the sake of ‘protecting his brother’. Excellent plot twist deserving of praises that shall last for an eternity.

.Hero must have a rival who will save him when faced with the great danger because ‘only he is allowed to defeat the hero’.

.Have dragons in the story.

.Have +5 enchanted weapons.

.There will be an episode at the beach.

.A wise old man will guide the hero. His name will probably be Gendou.com Gendoulf.

.There will be the obligatory betrayal scene. But the spy in the group will eventually become the hero’s real friend and get him out of the shit which he had caused in the first place. Wonderful friendship in play and the hero will be too stupid to recall that it was the ex-spy who had given him so much trouble initially.

.Wise old man Gendoulf will sacrifice his life to save the hero when a tough boss appears. With the loss of his mentor, the hero lvls up turns his anguish into strength and wins the tough boss.

.Dying, Gendoulf entrusts his powerful sword, Excharibaa, to the hero. And the hero will scream ‘I WILL INHERIT YOUR WILL!!!’

.Hero gets final weapon of the story and forgets about Excharibaa.

.Princess is kidnapped by the Dark Champion of the evil god.

.Dark Champion is actually the hero’s father and the fallen hero who once defeated the evil god. The SHOCKU and the DRAMA. Excellent plot twist.

.Hero refuses to fight his father but ends up doing so anyway.

.Final boss Evil god resides in a castle with dark clouds looming over it.

.Hero defeats the evil god with the help of his father who becomes GOOD again. Peace is restored once again.

.Oh yeah. The hero must have a hearty comrade who is planning to get married when he returns to his hometown. Dies in battle after charging into battle like Leeroy Jenkins. Very sad and dramatic because he was supposed to get married. Excellent drama.

.A bad plot hole which suggests that the animated version of the story could have just been 20 episodes instead of 54 episodes. But people still like it because the evil elder brother is SOOOO cool. So the glaring flaws are pardoned because the fans prefer to talk about their favourite characters.

I think the P-Meister and I are on our way towards creating the greatest tale ever told!!! This, my friend, is the -FINALE OF FANTASY PROJECT-. Stay tuned for more updates!

So what do you think must be in a fantasy story to make it great?
