And here is the answer from the Horsemen :

(Once again many thanks to my beta)

Dear uncle Kurgan :-),

We, the four Horsemen, have read the letter you recently wrote, and we want to let you know that we don't like the way you are threatening our fans. Hey, accept it, we are the cool guys here; nobody wants to join a loser like you.

I want to ask you a question: could it be that you have mixed up the meanings of the words evil and ugly? I mean, look at you and then at us. We have everything you can only dream about: we are stylish, and we all look so much better than you (even Caspian, and that means something!) - better and evil (you in contrary only look ugly).

Maybe your little mind hasn't figured it out yet: it's not only about looking evil (or ugly in your case); or don't you want to have many (good looking female) groupies? We have several (ok, maybe Silas and Caspian have not so much, but that's only because Caspian eats all his groupies, and Silas likes to stay with his animals). That's because we always make sure that we have cool outfits. Hey, we were up to date even in the Bronze Age (although steal weapons and armoury weren't invented at that time, we already had it).

And to your "imaginative" haircut: Haha, very funny, you do not really want to convince me that you needed several hours to create this ugly glad hat, do you? And you called it sexy... Ha! Look at me, then you will know the meaning of the word sexy! (And if you don't believe me, ask my many female fans).

You also mentioned your big scar; maybe I should remind you of the fact that you only got it because you were sloppy in whacking the Egyptian? But you surly repressed that, typical for you.

And some words to your so-called "cool name". Maybe you missed the little detail that 'The Kurgan' is not a name but a term. But hey, don't concern yourself with this; I mean you are even too stupid to realize that you have no real name, and that for about 3000 years now – even Silas is not that stupid! (By the way, Silas wants me to mention that he is NOT stupid) And you call my alias Melvin Koren gay – Ha! That's so laughable; we almost laughed ourselves crazy as Methos read out your letter aloud (ok, some of us already have been crazy, but you really can't blame Caspian for that; he had a bad childhood, and eating the brains of his victims was maybe not so good for his mind).

I tell you something: in contrast to you, I don't need an evil sounding name to pretend to be evil - I AM EVIL! But hey, I understand you; it's ok if you need a cool name for your feelings of self-worth. If I felt as worthless as you, maybe I would hide behind a name, too.

But on the other hand, I HAVE some cool names, or what would you call 'War'? Is there only one single person on earth who doesn't know war? I don't think so, but thinking of your 'name'...

As you admitted yourself, nobody knows you (except some watchers, but even these guys dated your birth in the 15Th century first). And honestly, is this really so amazing? I mean, the reviewers of this story were totally right, you are only second best - that's a fact. Accept it, you are a looser. The author of that story was right, too, when she wrote that we would have kicked your ass even as small kids with toy swords.

We always were the best and always will be. I mean, who ruled for more than 1000 years? Who was called the nightmare of the known world? ... And who made it into the bible and became famous? ... I will tell you a little secret, it was not you.

And to blame that on Methos's little corrections in the bible... Ok, I have to confess that he made some entries about us, but is it our fault that you lack the brain to have your own marketing?

Let me tell you something: terror is not only about violence, it's also about intelligence. It's not enough to slaughter your enemies in every evil way you can come up with; if you want to become famous, create a legend to your person, use your mind (but that's your whole problem, isn't it? You have none!). We never were only plain brutal killers; we had imagination, we slaughtered with intelligence (ok, maybe not Caspian and Silas, but the rest of us), and we also had cool, thought through, and very complex plans. And that's what made us famous – that, our good marketing, and of course our cool style.

You see, there are several differences between you and us; we ARE cool, and you are only a stupid loser - as the people called it very aptly: only second best (if actually).

Now that this is settled, we would like to invite you to our annual fan clubs meeting in Idaho, Monday at 8.30 p.m. Of course, you can also bring your fan club (if you can find a member; I think we have room for three more persons :-).

See you!

Your "End of time" (Kronos)

Rest

PS: I have allowed myself to also send you a CD together with this letter. On it, you can find the Kronos screensaver and a desktop picture for your PC; so, you can always look at my sexy body... You don't have to thank me for this little gift, it goes without saying.

PPS: You also wrote that Connor thought himself to have won the prize after he had gotten your quickening; hey, you can't really blame us for him being an even more stupid fool than you!
