~*Prologue*~
You have heard the story of Relish the Troll King's magic shoes.
He made them because of his passion for footwear, long ago in the caves
of Dragon Mountain. The shoes were stolen by Wolf and Virginia Louis,
and cast into a river. But the shoes have a way of getting back to their
master. What's that, you say, Relish is dead? Not so. Rumor has it that
he has arisen from the Merry Pips orchard, though weak, crawling
barefoot to a cave. Later, Clayface the Goblin found the shoes lieing in
the riverbed, and tried them on. Intrigued by their powers, they soon
had almost full power over him. Today, he is having his 66th birthday, a
very old age for a goblin.


~*The Fellowship of the Shoes: Part One*~
"Wow...Ol' Clayface looks great for 66." "Untouched by time, it
seems!" "He's getting old, but he sure don't look it!" These were but a
few of the remarks ar Clayface's 66th birthday party. He himself was
nowhere to be seen, but a large cart filled with sheep and fireworks
rolled down the road of Gobblinton,[A/n: Creative ain't I?] and many
goblin children rushed after the cart merrily. The rider of the cart was
humming a little song: "Sheperdess makes quite a mess, but little lambs
are lovely...Hmm hmm hmm..."

Tumbleweed, Clayface's nephew, was turning 22 today, and he
chatted with his friends. "I hear it's gonna be some party!" "Oh, I'm
sure. Clayface is the oddest goblin I've seen. He's either trying on
shoes or carving!"

Finally, Clayface took a podium and began talking. "'Allo,
everyone. As you all know, today is my 66th birthday, and my lovely
nephew Tumbleweed's 22nd! While I was at the Snow White Memorial
prison, I learned many things. First o' all, never eat bean stalk if
you can help it," This got a laugh from many of the goblins, "An'
second, that patience is a virtue. I do b'lieve that I took a great
deal o' patience to get ta' 66, don'cha think? Now, my very good
friend, erm...Warren..." Clayface wasn't quite sure how they would
react to his REAL name... "Well, 'e 'as brought us some very special
tricks for us. Warren, please show us."

Warren (or, rather, Wolf) opened the back of the cart, drooling.
Out came a golden retriever dog, and a dozen of so sheep. The dog barked
at them, and soon they gave quite an amazing show, doing what seemed
to be dance routines, moving with pinpoint accuracy at the slightest
bark.[A/n: I don't know...I just can't think of anything else!]

After the show, Clayface applauded. "Well, Warren, that was
amazing. Now, I must go. GOODBYE!" And then, Clayface disapeared.
The goblins were all puzzled, but Wolf had a look that seemed to say,
"You shouldn'tve done that..."
