"It was a pistol I secretly bought in Paris, in the style of arms dealers and mafias, to be used for executing the people of 'Khabisa' village by the new pirates... To avoid being interrogated for possessing it, I confess for the first time that it's a 'blank' pistol, used only in cinema and theater for intimidation, not for killing. What we are allowed to have are theatrical weapons, whereas the real pirates are permitted to use all types of air, sea, and land weaponry... They even use a modern submarine that mercilessly spews its deadly, evil lava. I was able to bring the dead martyrs back to life using the magic of reincarnation, and I made the 'bitten' ones perform their dance, disturbing the murderous, occupying pirates in their nightmares and their waking lives. What a well-planned commando operation, through which we ensured no martyr would fall during our battle with the occupying pirates."
