The conflict unfolded. Alliances were made, rivalries reemerged, battle lines were drawn – and chaos reigned on the beach. But violence isn’t eternal, no matter how many tomatoes are thrown inside the war machine, one day peace will be restored – and you can all look back at the carnage, at what was lost, and weep while wondering if it was worth it or not…
Through the war, you formed an alliance with the <span class="mu-i">Messy Tomato Backpacks</span>, they believed that the comfiness your back provides could expand through the kingdom if given the chance. Wilma and Cookie were invaluable allies, going through thick and thin for the cause, and you all ultimately achieved a successful conquest. The Castle was in your hands. Not even the Cold-Hearted Duo (Matilda & Chio) after hiring the Tomato Mercenaries (Grace & Mirjam) and Oliver (Oliver) could usurp the throne. Your flag flew high and mighty. The power struggle lasted for a while, and even if it was close, your kingdom was victorious.
You reigned supreme… briefly. Matilda couldn’t bear her work being utilized by its rightful conqueror, and like a sore loser would, destroyed the castle in a cowardly attack nobody saw coming (she kicked it). Everything you all fought so hard for is gone…
And before anyone asks, the other castle was also destroyed, it was collateral damage from the earlier war. It was Mirjam’s fault, allegedly (Testimony by Grace).
…You’re now <span class="mu-s">Comfymandias</span>. Your empire is all dust (more than usual), and nothing else remains but to serve swift justice. The war criminal is being held in front of you. Her evil deeds must be punished. The Backpack Council demands her head… to peek out from the sand! The trial is being held over the ruins of your mighty empire…Maybe if the battle was more one-sided, Matilda wouldn’t have felt this salty.
“Do you regret your actions?” Cookie asks with furious justice in her eyes. It was your castle. “We all agreed we were the rightful owners of the castle! We didn’t pursue further punishment because of the negotiations we made together, formal winner.”
“That’s why I stand trial in front of you, to seek redemption.” Even Matilda knows her actions were too petty and childish. Chio and Matilda negotiated not to be buried because they won the contest, you three agreed for peace’s sake.
“…It’ll return honor to your name, criminal.” Wilma nods. “Unlike those who scattered away.” The Messy Tomatoes turn to the cowards who are watching from afar. They hide upon being confronted. Except for Chio, she’s enjoying the drama as another commoner. “Phil, your sentence?”
You’re still head down in the sand… Defeated…
