THE KINGDOM BROADSIDES

Only what deserves a ballad gets sung
BROADSIDE Nº 4

Of Rancho de Carliana 😝, who called at the wrong gate

October 10, 2026 at 3:08 PM

So tells the blind man, and the blind man does not lie: that Rancho de Carliana 😝 came down on The Goatherd's Croft with 3 farmhands and 2 dogs, and the count worked out ahead of time.

They found gate, found dogs, found neighbours — and not the count they had brought. The crew turned back beaten, leaving 156 coins' worth of gear in the mud.
