We went to the place where blood bowl was born. The battlefield where the dwarf and orc armies stopped fighting after their great archeological discovery. I stayed there for hours. Holly had to drag me away. I had felt something, though. At the pub where we hooked up with our friends, I tried to explain what it was about the shrine that fascinated me but only succeeded in making myself sound foolish. I drank too much, as usual, so Holly led us to our guesthouse room. I had troubled dreams that night about men in leather helmets with numbers on their backs...

When I got home I acted on an idea that had been formulating inside my head. Holly and my friends said it was a crazy idea. Maybe it was. I had an old barn on the ancestral farm I had inherited that wasn't being used, so I decided to convert it into an indoor blood bowl field. It was large enough after I made a few modifications. First I removed all the animal stalls on the ground floor. Above was the loft where my father and grandfather before him stored food for the animals. I removed the ground floor ceiling so I had a sturdy building that was now one very large room. On the roof of the building I installed massive skylights. Then I planted grass and created my field. Holly left me before completion.

Several nights after I finished my project I had a crisis of disillusionment. I went to the little goblin who sold me that beer I am so fond of and asked for two cases. He looked at me curiously, then asked if I would be interested in his special brew, available only to his most loyal customers. It cost a little extra but I assented. I took them to the barn, where I sat in the middle of my field and got wasted. This beer was different from the other in that it definately had more alcohol, was sharper tasting and had little pieces of mushroom floating on the top. The first two or three I skimmed off the debris, then I didn't bother. I chucked the empty bottles into the rafters of my barn. The last one bounced back at me. Being too disoriented to dodge in time, it hit me between the eyes. I lay on the field laughing at my foolishness when I passed out.

It was a dream, but of a vividness I had never experienced before. I was in a void of greenness. In the distance I saw soomeone. As I walked nearer to this being I saw that he was an ancient looking orc in ragged clothing. This was the first senior orc I had ever seen. "What are you about?" he asked me. I didn't understand the question. "You built the field, are you willing to pay the price?" he asked. I paused. "Well", he continued, "you summoned me in the Great Green, humie, what is the answer?" "Y-y-yes." I stammered. "What? I didn't hear you." "Yes!" I yelled. "Give it to me!" "So be it" he replied.

When I woke there was a group of men standing around me dressed like in the dream I had had at the guesthouse. The one named Jim asked me "What is this place, chief?" I replied that I had built it. I tried to get up but my body felt as if someone had used it as a punching bag. One of the men helped me to my feet. I asked them their names. Besides Jim there was Dutch, Red, Mel, Link, Ernie, Pete, George, Blood, Ed...but wait! Cal had arrived to this world horribly deformed into an ogre. Eleven in all. It didn't take a genius to figure out what had happened. "You were sent here to play as a team. I built it, you came. Welcome!" Thus were the Canton Stars born. Maybe if I was successful Holly would come back. In the meantime we had work to do.
