The Cheese Mountain Tragedy

~May 21, 1854~

As twenty-four brave men, worms, and goatboys stormed Cheese Mountain to claim victory, a fierce battle was fought over ten and two days. Eyes were poked & groins were kicked in. Many pictures were taken, but none survived. In the end four men stood strong and put up a flag to claim the mountain theirs. That night those four men ate the soil and feasted on its many cheesy growths.

Since they collectively pulled this off they figured it might be a logical next step to open a joint studio in about 157 years, which is now. Too many imaginary creatures gave up their existence not to do this.
So here we are—now what!?

Let’s just wait and see!
