===[[Practices & Rituals to honor Da One]]===
 
 
 
 
 
-Using soap is heresy; it hides a person's true odor like a mask hides a person's true identity.  Plus, it tastes really bad.
 
 
 
 
 
-Shiny metals & armors are like a peacock's feathers; they only serve to display your own conceit and vanity.  Worn, beaten and rusty metals are prized by us; they have endured many trials and have been steadfast companions. 
 
 
 
 
 
-Ales & other such drinks are highly prized for their inebriating properties.  They put you in a similar state of mind with Da Great Goat and should be enjoyed often and in as large a quantity as possible.
 
 
 
 
 
-Dresses/robes/kilts are the only acceptable forms of clothing.  Da Great One has no need of pants, and neither do his followers.
 
 
 
 
 
===[[Proverbs & Sayings inspired by Da One]]===
 
 
 
 
 
-Ama-zi-hing Goat,
 
how sweet Da Beard,
 
Eat gra-ha-has all day
 
and mehh for sound..
 
 
 
wha-at once was lost,
 
now i-his One
 
One i-his all
 
And Da One ain't round
 
 
 
For glo-hory and G0-ho-hoat
 
we'll rule the-uh land
 
By cart o-hor boat
 
Da One will ne-hever end...
 
-AJ Von Krondor
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
''"The Barrel of Ale", proverb of Da Great Goat retold by Shamus O'Shea''
 
 
 
One day as he was grazing in Ambermel, two peasants came before Da Great Goat with a disagreement. Each man claimed that the barrel of ale they had brought with them was his, and that the other man was a liar.
 
 
 
"Oh Smelly One," they said, "please solve this disagreement and return this barrel of ale to its rightful owner."
 
 
 
Da Great Goat thought about this for a few minutes, and eventually bleated out:
 
 
 
"Bring forth a sword."
 
 
 
So a servant ran off and hurriedly returned with a sword. Da Great Goat spoke again:
 
 
 
"Now cut the barrel in two."
 
 
 
Perplexed, the servant did as Da Great Goat said. He took his best swing and split the keg neatly in two. The two arguing men were speechless as they watched the Ale spill all over the ground. Da Great Goat began eagerly lapping it up. Finally after a few minutes, one of the men spoke up:
 
 
 
"Oh Hairy One, how did cutting the barrel in half with a sword resolve the matter of who the rightful owner was?"
 
 
 
Da Great Goat, raised his head, beard dripping with suds and said:
 
 
 
"Ale belongs to whomever is currently drinking it. Suckers."
 
 
 
Moral of the story: ''Ale is for drinking, not arguing over.''
 
 
 
 
 
===[[Songs for Paying Tribute to Da One]]===
 
 
 
 
 
''"Ode To Goatdom"'', by Taelon Crimsonblade
 
 
 
Though he be wise, And he be grand, AJ the noble's, Just a man,
 
 
 
However he, Is blessed by one, That rules those, In Goatdom.
 
 
 
[END INTRO] [Begin Chorus]
 
 
 
Goatdom, Goatdom, A grand, old land, Is Goatdom,
 
 
 
Goatdom, Goatdom, To glorious life, In Goatdom,
 
 
 
[End Chorus]
 
 
 
Though we may fall, In battle soon, We know we'll drink again,
 
For those who follow, Da Great Goat, Will rise again in Goatdom,
 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
 
 
All the evil, Scallywags, We meet battle soon,
 
 
 
Shall taste their death, Upon our swords, Ne'er to rise in Goatdom,
 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
 
 
Our wives and kids, With bearded face, May look at us and smile,
 
 
 
For though we may, Yet drown in ale, We'll rise again in Goatdom,
 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
 
 
My dirty feet, And unwashed smell, May kill the ones I meet,
 
 
 
But if they are, Of redspan blood, They rise again in Goatdom.
 
 
 
[Chorus X2]
