Prologue :
   
I think Versache's father put it best :

"To Aye an' a bit of Mackeral settler rack and ruin
ran it doon by the haim, 'ma place
well I slapped me and I slapped it doon in the side
and I cried, cried, cried.
The fear a fallen down taken never back the raize and then Craig Marion,
get out wi' ye Claymore out mi pocket a' ran doon, doon the middin stain
picking the fiery horde that was fallen around ma feet.
Never he cried, never shall it ye get me alive
ye rotten hound of the burnie crew. Well I snatched fer the blade o' my
Claymore cut and thrust and I fell doon before him round his feet.
Aye! A roar he cried frae the bottom of his heart that I would nay fall
but as dead, dead as 'a can be by his feet; de ya ken? "

Of course he'd been getting his groove on in cave with several species Of smAll fUrRy aNiMals at the time.
Versache's dad

Versache the Barbarian comic cover

Let teachers and priests and philosophers brood over questions of reality and illusion.
I know this: if life is an illusion, then I am no less an illusion, and being thus,
the illusion is real to me.

I live, I burn with life, I love,
I slay, and I am content.

Robert E. Howard, Queen of the Black Coast, Weird Tales, May 1934.

Notes : Hardly the purest of sciences, history is closer to animal husbandry than it is to mathematics, in that it involves selective breeding. The principal difference between the husbandryman and the historian is that the former breeds sheep or cows or such, and the latter breeds facts. The husbandryman uses his skills to enrich the future; the historian uses his to enrich the past. Both are usually up to their ankles in some sort of shit.
