The Red King run wild, gone tyrant. Find yourself eating despite not even being remotely hungry? Mindlessly browsing the Net despite having actual useful and interesting things to do? Drinking a beer or two out of pure boredom? I certainly have, and until a recent (and blessed) event that I am extremely grateful for, I didn't understand.

I sat in silence for a moment, and looked deep within the Earth, with the aid and comfort of the Garden's many splendors.  I found that the tenants of the Garden where reflections of the mineral and metallic life within the Earth. While observing the contents of the Earth I became aware of and made acquaintance with the Red King. I immediately recognized him, as we had wrestled in the past. He ruled the entirety of the Earth.
