The land was quiet, peaceful, and serene. The morning sun had just begun to rise, casting a golden glow on the trees and fields. The dew on the grass glittered like diamonds, and the birds sang sweet melodies.
But this peacefulness was about to be shattered. In the distance, the sound of war horns echoed across the land, signaling the approach of a hobgoblin legion. The settlers in the nearby village heard the horns and knew what was coming.
They had heard the stories of the hobgoblins' martial might, their love for warfare and battle, and their thirst for conquest. They knew that these creatures cared about nothing except the opportunity to demonstrate their skill and cunning in battle.
As the villagers scrambled to fortify their defenses, they caught a glimpse of the hobgoblin legion. The creatures had dark orange or red-orange skin, with hair ranging from dark red-brown to dark gray. Their yellow or dark brown eyes peered out beneath their beetling brows, and their wide mouths sported sharp and yellowed teeth. A male hobgoblin in the front ranks had a large blue nose, symbolizing his virility and power among his kind.
The hobgoblin legion marched in perfect formation, a thousand booted feet echoing across the land. Stones flew from their catapults, and the thunder of their approach shook the earth. The settlers knew that they had to fight for their survival.
The hobgoblin legion had organized themselves into tribal bands known as legions, each with a warlord and several captains serving under their command. These hobgoblins were ruthless tyrants, more interested in strategy, victory, glory, reputation, and dominion than leading troops into battle.
The settlers had only a few defenders, armed with swords, shields, and bows. But they were determined to fight to the death. As the hobgoblin legion approached, the settlers released a volley of arrows, but the hobgoblins were well-trained in the art of war and easily dodged them.
The battle began, with hobgoblins charging forward with their weapons raised high. The settlers fought back with all their might, but they were outnumbered and outmatched. The hobgoblins were skilled fighters, and their weapons were deadly.
The settlers were pushed back, retreating into their village. The hobgoblins followed, their eyes gleaming with a lust for blood. The settlers fought fiercely, but it was no use. The hobgoblins were too strong.
The village burned as the hobgoblins ransacked it, taking what they pleased and destroying what they did not. The settlers who survived were taken as slaves, their fate uncertain.
As the hobgoblin legion marched away, their war horns sounding once more, the land was left in ruins. The peace and serenity of the morning had been shattered, replaced by the aftermath of war. The hobgoblins had conquered and controlled, leaving destruction in their wake.
Putting Link in a bit more suitable armor for adventuring: Black fitted and padded arming doublet and trousers, green studded brigandine, and half-plate armor consisting of a cuirass, pauldrons, the Silver Gauntlets, and Greaves, and a fur Mantle.
Hey, Enter Galactic Zine here. We're Enter Galactic Zine, AKA the Zine Zone, we make zines and enjoy/support zines. All kinda genres, usually friendly, maybe not totally family friendly. Enter Galactic Zine is the title of our magazine. If we have separate zines released, they'll be released under that title and a sub-title, most likely. We might also go by Enter Galactic zine, enter Galactic Zine, Enter: galactic zine, Entergalactic Zines. That sort of thing. We might elect not to always use the same capitalization and punctuation and letter amount/spacing for our zine titles, you get the picture? Enter Galactic Zines are probably about the cosmos, space, aliens, adventures, and philosophical or moral stories, or even cosmic space alien adventures with philosophical morals.
So that's us and that's our brand basically.
Enter Galactic Zines is doing a Hitchhiker's Guide zine soon, so, be sure and support that if you feel like it. We'll be posting here at the Zine Zone, and on Twitter @ zinegalactic. Please contact if you want to contribute!
