1 And the REVAN said unto Ribaldequin, Come thou and all thy house into the Kruusificent; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

2 Of every clean beast which doth not reside in trees thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.

3 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of Leirooine.

4 For yet it shall rain; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of Leirooine.

5 And Ribaldequin did according unto all that the REVAN commanded him.

6 And Ribaldequin was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon Leirooine.

7 And Ribaldequin went in, and his chosen, and his wives, and lovers, and concubines, and their servants, and his chosen's wives with him, into the Kruusificent, because of the waters of the flood.

8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon Leirooine,

9 There went in two and two unto Leiro into the Kruusificent, the male and the female, as Revan had commanded Ribaldequin.

10 And it came to pass after seven days of fire from heaven onto the ice of the north and of the ice of the south, that the waters of the flood were upon the Leirooine.

11 In the six hundredth year of Ribaldequin's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

12 And the rain was upon Leirooine forevermore.

13 In the selfsame day entered Ribaldequin, and Ted, and Dave, and Chuck, and some dudes they met in a bar, and Ribaldequins's women, and the three wives he had chosen for each of his chums, into the Kruusificent;

14 They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon Leirooine after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird of every sort.

15 And they went in unto Ribaldequin into the Kruusificent, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.

16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as Revan had commanded him: and the Revan ordered him to fire up the grill.

17 And the flood was forevermore upon Leirooine; and the waters increased, and above them flew up the Kruusificent, and it was lift up above the land.

18 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon Leirooine; and the BBQ on the Kruusificent was pleasing in the sight of Revan, except for Chuck, who only brought StoneKey Beer to Drink.

19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon Leirooine; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.

20 Upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered. There was great strife amongst those who had not heeded the words of the prophet.

21 And all flesh died that moved upon Leirooine, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon Leirooine, and every man:

22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.

23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Ribaldequin only remained alive, and they that were with him in the Kruusificent and they that had heeded his prophesy.

24 And the waters prevailed upon Leirooine forevermore.

[Trasbin, Leirooine]
[Surf's up!]

Judge Raithwall had woken up from such a wonderful sleep to find his ark completed several days before the flooding of Leirooine. As he glanced it through his window, he was very happy to see the results. The ark itself looked beautiful; the recycled parts that were used from the homes of the people to make the ark reminded him of a prison camp... the same type Jaron Park (The disease) had been properly placed in. Smiling a little bit, Judge Raithwall had grabbed his helmet and placed it on his head. As he ran outside, he was ignorant of the fact that he was in nothing but his underwear. Now these particular pair had poke-dots were presented to him from the great King himself for the Judge's yearly service to him. These were Raithwall's favorite pair of undies and he wore them proudly. As he stepped outside, he lifted his hands wide up and shouted in cheer pleasure as the people turned to him. "Wonderful!" The people would bow to him as he exited, ignoring the fact he was almost naked. He begun stepping towards it when he started stepping on rubble. As the first stone made contact with his foot, Raithwall jumped in pain. "Blasted rock!" His voice would rage within the entire area and he looked up. "Get over here and escort me!" His command was quickly followed as the people rolled over a rusted red wagon that came with a handle. Raithwall would step into the wagon and the people would begin to pull him towards the ark. As he came upon it, he would slap them, ordering them to stop. He would step off and investigate the ark. His first visit was the front. As he looked up, he laughed. "He's stuck!" Raithwall would point and laugh and his royal guards would join him. He'd turn to them. "What happened?" They could only sigh. "Well my lord... he accidentally nailed his hands to the ark... now he's the front piece." Raithwall got annoyed and ordered that he brought a paper bag. Once it was brought to him, he asked for a knife. He cut out some eyes and a big smiley face on it. He handed it to the royal guards, who would insure it was placed in the proper place. It was time to look at the inside.

He stepped up the ramp and was amazed at the crampness of the room inside. "This is where they sleep, I take it?" He questioned as he removed his helmet. The guards would nod and explain to them that it was the size of two portajohns. It was suppose to be able to hold up to 2 families when the floods would happen. Nodding in big improvement he was then taken to his room, which was as big as two houses. Liking it a lot, he was then taken to the top of the deck, to view the mighty cannon in which was ordered to be constructed. "I want a demonstration." The guards were quick to grab someone and load them into the cannon. The person was jammed into the cannon and then the guards would aim the cannon and would lock it into position. Then as they hit a few buttons, a small cusion (which wasn't pleasent) would come rushing up from beneath the person to help them get into a straight angle to get out of the cannon. Then all of a sudden they were pushed out by a spring. The person was quickly launched out of the cannon and went flying through the air... landing in the twig infested swamp. The cries of the painful sticks could be heard, but they fell upon deaf ears. Raithwall could not be more pleased. "Excellent... now get me some cloths!"

Now as the flood happened, everyone was loaded onto the ark and Raithwall was in his room as it rained heavily and Leirooine was starting to become flooded planetwide. Raithwall was gripping onto his bed post as the ark rocked back and forth. "We're going to die!" He repeated this over and over again with each rock. However as his royal guards entered, Raithwall would quickly release and stand tall, acting as if he were not crying a few seconds ago. "We have a problem... the ark cannon stay above the water much longer... we must get rid of additional weight." Judge Raithwall then came up with an idea. "Then we will dump every woman off this ark... in the name of our glorious King whom will save us from this evil water... and whom saved my life from the evil, disgusting twigs." Bowing, they would leave and Raithwall would follow. The royal guards would begin to grab the females and throw them into the water, while Raithwall was behind them. "Do not fear my glorious people, they are giving themselves up for the good of the cause. Our great king demands it! Any woman that does not jump off right now, will be declared to have slept with Jaron Park themselves. Only by giving themselves up to the great King, will the women be granted eternal happiness up above." Suddenly the men would grab their wives and daughters, and throw them overboard. Raithwall placed on his helmet and would retreat back into his room. Once the door was shut, he would quickly run back to his bed stand and grip the poll for dear life.

The sky was angry that day. From hellish clouds burst forth a rain like the planet had never seen, and Raithwall's tiny boat was tossed about the waves by furious gusts of wind. Lightning flashed all about them, and the sea was filled with jagged debris. Water seeped into cabin around Raithwall, and the wooden planks of the boat groaned in protest. Sudden, horrid snapping noises could be heard on occasion, somewhere within the ship's recesses as it was pummelled by the elements—nay, by the Revan himself.

But then, a different noise could be heard all around them. It was a tremendous rumbling, coming from the sky. The boat trembled, the sea turned white and, suddenly, a brilliant light appeared just above them. But it was not just any light, my friends, for it seemed to envelop the world. It was frightening, but it was also awe inspiring. Surely, the Revan had come to save them in their hour of desperation? Or, perhaps, the Revan's noble servant, King Ribaldequin?

No. It was the Imperial Star Destroyer Adamant, and it hadn't come to save anyone. In fact, it wasn't even aware of Raithwall's tiny boat tumbling on the waves below. The ship had a crew of 37,085 men, and it had been away on patrol for two months. If one assumed, conservatively, that each man used the refresher one and a half times per day, it came out to many thousands of tons of human waste. This had to be disposed of, and doing so in a gravity well was preferable to venting it into deep space, because there it could interfere with sensors and navigation. Disposing of it on a planet was also preferable to doing so into a sun, because toxic compounds such as hypermatter could, possibly, be radiated back out of a star and throughout its system.

Leirooine made the most sense, especially now that its sea levels were rising (because oceans were efficient at containing waste). This is why the Empire had made an agreement with Ribaldequin to dump its waste and refuse here.

Just as revelers would probably have gathered on the deck of Raithwall's boat, to gaze in awe, mouths agape, upon the return of the Revan in the sky, it suddenly began to rain something else entirely as tons and tons and tons of human waste, feces, garbage, and toxic compounds were dumped into the sea and, as it happened, directly upon the unfortunate ark. The sheer volume of it would likely cause the ship to founder and, quite possibly, sink into the noxious brew. Once the Adamant was finished—it took almost 5 minutes to dump it all—its lights shut off, its engines fired up, and it ascended back into the heavens. A moment later, the rumbling was gone, and the storm resumed.
