YIPPLE
REBELLION
In 466 GUE, the entire city of Galepath was infested by a rebellion
of yipples much larger and more powerful than those described in the
Sorcerer packaging (of whose text is included in the 'Yipple' entry of
this encyclopedia). This calamity prevented Galepath from providing
reinforcements at the command of Harmonious Fzort to free the zucchini
route through Znurg to the coast.
Dundor lead the armies of
Vriminax against Galepath to free the city from the infestation. Faced
with heavy fortifications, Dundor of Vriminax ordered his cavalry to
advance up the far side of the river. Although the river was too
dangerous to ford, Dundor built a bridge under darkness. The yipples
were taken completely by surprise as the cavalry was no longer held
back by the torrential waters. Thus Dundor bravely crushed the yipples,
quashing the rebellion. This great and early battle of the Empire
became known as the Yipple Rebellion. A side-effect of this victory was
that flesh balls became known as an absolute “faux pas,” instead being
replaced with flesh strips in cream-cheese, spread over delicate wafers.
