But doubles are great fun.
 I still wouldn't mind having a few more people, though: the more the merrier...

You said to beg as many days as I need, but I think I'm over doing it... But, I made the mistake of working on the picture on a computer that isn't were I can access it very well..... So I haven't been able to work on it for several days. I will try to go quickly when I finally get it back. So sorry. (This is why I didn't join up in a hurry...)

I sent my description of the scene today so it's up to Nimrodel now.
So hopefully we can soon enjoy the outcome. At least what I draw a long time ago and what I was required to depict now weren't too close each other... PS. Hookbill, I'll definitively want to be in the next round as well as this is a lot of fun indeed.

Hookbill, as you've modded about a hundred games in a row and I've always promised I can mod one, I'll mod the next one if you want to have a pause from modding.

Here It Be! - Part One
So, for this time, for a novelty, we began with a picture of epic proportions…
 Nimrodel was terrified. So full of fear that all we got was this: Though Phantom and Alien tried to stop him, Gandalf stole a piggy from the orphanage to impress his manager, Sauron, at KFC by making the poor swine the new secret ingredient. Aganzir’s dreadful prophesies were coming true! Indeed, after a picture drawing session it became all to clear… and horrible…  Legate was fed up of the usual things. As we shall see… “Detective Phantom and his sidekick Alien investigate a new case. Why does Gandalf capture little pigs from local pig orphanage? Does it have anything to do with Sauron's newly opened fast food restaurant?” Lommy’s days were numbered. Numbered 1 to 10. She later took her calendar back to the shop and then on the back of her receipt, she drew this masterpiece.  Volo was confused. So were we all. And this was the result of all that confusion… Respected Professor G. Mithrandir is peacefully walking from the Pig Orphanage to McSauron's hamburger bar. G. Mithrandir has a sack over his shoulder which goes "oink", but it's purely a coincidence - or so private detectives P. Hantom and A. Lien think

Part Two
The Elf warrior fought long and hard along the long and hard road. We’re not sure why…
 No one would have believed that The Might had any sense of direction. But that is unimportant. Jabba the Hut, a Sarlacc (the worm on Tatooine) and an imperial AT_ST walker (the walkers on Endor) have stolen pigs and are taking them to McSauron's to be transformed into burger meat. A Little Green did a little picture… Sorry, that was just awful… I’ll think of something better to say next time.  Oddwen Fell apart. Then got back together. Then fell apart again. Then wrote this. Then got back together again. Vile creatures from Star Wars descend upon McSauron's domain with stolen pigs and intent to maintain McSauron's reputation for mystery meat It is very likely that Nogrod will be arrested for this:  Finduilas never imagined such a scene. So it was understandably difficult to describe… Sauron insists that his Restaurant is cool, as it features entertainment by Jabba the Hut, Darth Vadar, and other Star wars hero's who's morals agree with Saurons, and as it serves wonderful food such as Mystery Pig Macs, for such affordable prices as $3.95

Part Three
Legate was full of beans and soup. We soon had his stomach pumped though…
 Aganzir took the law into his own hands… then dropped it… Sauron watches the cool Star Wars band play while waiting for his supper in a psychedelic coffeeroom: microwave heated chicken à la Palpatine and stewed Macalaure & pork by Darth Vader. Unfortunately, his dinner companion Saruman is still outside, flirting with an elder gentleman. Volo some how interpreted that madness as this:  What madness had taken over lommy? We’re not sure. We think it was Dragon related. "Gandalf the Chat-Wizard didn't enjoy Sauron's disco, especially as the band was formed by several Star Wars heroes and the host himself was laying on a bed made of boxing gloves and talking about Macalaure-bread baked by Darth Vader." The Might was feeling the heat! No one knows why…  With the pressure building on The Elf Warrior, there was only one thing left to do… At the Star Lords concert, Rikae was frightened by Darth Vader's magic, Sauron admired Darth Vader's Macalaure bread, while Gandalf was disappointed there were no elf chicks.

The Final Part
Oddwen was feeling romantic… But we soon put a stop to that…
 A Little Green finally got the chance for me to think of a better joke! So… A Little Green felt a little better and wrote a little sentence- Oh blast I did it again! The Witch-King approves Darth Vader's tossing of a fainted German worm whilst a band of four stars called "Star Lords" is playing on a stage. Above them, on balconies, are a frustrated Gandalf thinking about a woman, a woman terrified by Vader and the Witch-King, and two hobbits with lots of buttered popcorns. The problem for Finduilas was not so much fear, as lack of knowledge about what on earth was supposed to be going on… Seriously…  Nogrod was attacked by vicious dogs and apples. Yes. Murder in a Star Lords gig! Lead singer Darth Vader throws a venomous snake into the audience aiming at lady Arwen who is terrified. Pip and Sam do not notice the obvious as they enjoy The Witch-king's smooth and elastic hip-movement on stage. The irrevocability of Arwen's death throws Gandalf to concentrate on the melancholic idea what kind of Granny Arwen would have been if she would have lived longer. Nimrodel_9 finished off this fine Telephone call with some confusing artwork…  If that wasn’t the most ridiculous thing ever, then what is? Probably what will be in the next Paper Telephone. Take it away, Lommy!

In case you need someone on reserve you can count me in... Otherwise I'll be coming to the next one.
I seem to always miss the starting of this one.

AAagh! I made a stupid mistake! I accidentally sent the same message to both Volo and the Elf warrior. So... Volo, ignore any PMs you get from me at the moment.
