What Is The Kings Quest For This Undeniably ODD Party?

While King tries to give a quest, Sir Humphrey points out why it would be a bad idea

The king started feeling the great headache coming – they are getting even weirder!

Putting a mask of a good-natured man, he sat on his throne and addressed the heroes.

“Heroes! What a great joy it is to see you. Many evils plague the kingdom, yet here you come at the time of its need! The evil clan of Amazons harasses the nearby villages, kidnaping the man and doing unspeakable things to them! I implore you to travel to the province and deal with them!”

“Your majesty…”

“Yes, Sir Humphrey?” the king turned to his trusted civil service advisor.

“I would advise against eradicating that tribe.”

“And why is that?”

“Well, your highness, it could lead to the rebellion of this villages. You see, while it is true that Amazons kidnap the men and do… unspeakable things to them – which I must say, majority of the kidnapped men are quite eager to experience – then they return them, unharmed.”

“What of the women of the villages?”

“Well, they are all for this actions – when the men return, they are more… cooperative with their wives. One could say, that they are trained to live in marriage under the heel. And when both of married have enough of each other, the men are ‘kidnapped’ again – to joy of both, husband and wife… well, and the Amazon’s. To destroy the village, would greatly dampen the province’s morale.”

“I see…” and he really did. “In that case – Heroes! The great threat of the Orc horde near the border town needs to be dealt with! Their raids-”

“If I may, your Highness, it would be very dangerous to destroy this horde.”

“And why is that, Sir Humphrey?”

“Well, there are two reasons really. First is that the horde, as by product, protects our kingdom from the Empire – one could call it a cost-free border guard. We might even actually start paying the War-boss for his work, as he concentrates more on empire than us.”

“What about our citizens? Don’t they suffer in attacks?”

“Actually, your highness, no. They pay the Warboss the tribute to be left alone. Not having other targets, the Warboss concentrates on bandits, making the roads safer. And considering the bandit infestation on the border, he will have a work for next 10 years,”

“I see…” the king said nodding. “In that case, Heroes! The evil **** raiders wreak havoc in South City-”

“Your Highness, I would advise against it.”

“And why is that, Sir Humphrey?”

“Because the south city is actually selling the people to **** traders.”

“They sell the citizens of the kingdom? I should have the governor removed!”

“Yes your Highness- I mean, no your Highness, I mean… The thing is, your Highness, that the governor sells the prisoners. By doing so, he reduces the overpopulation in the prisons and reduces the facilities’ costs of upkeep, not to mention that the action also secures some additional income for the city, from selling the slaves.”

“And the city’s population has nothing against it?”

“Well, it became something of a tradition for them…”

“I see… In that case, Heroes!-“

Finally, after long consultations, the king has given the Ghazgul's Bitches party a quest of
