In a remote forest lived an entire army. They lived in a castle that had never been attacked, so no one really bothered to protect it anymore. Only one knight prepared for attack, while the troops preferred to take naps. Lacking military training, the knight decided to make her army the best trained in lazing around, unfolding deck chairs, playing music, and hanging hammocks…
When one morning the enemy appeared in the distance, panic ensued: the troops thought they would be unable to fight, but the knight calmly explained that they would do as usual, and the strangest of battles began. Deckchairs and parasols hindered the enemy’s progress, drums and trumpets deafened them, and a forest of hammocks stopped them in their tracks.
The knight was carried in triumph and proposed a new exercise to celebrate the victory: a pillow fight!
