EMPIRE OF THE SONS AND DAUGHTER

Sprouting from an alliance of the erudites and those helped by God, Scientia Dynastia now straddle a swath of territory from Almaguer to Artacho through Bakal 2, inconspicuous but protected by the Master of Rome who was murdered by his mistress' son to usher the ascension of Augustus the Adopted as the first emperor of the Roman Empire who ruled when the Messiah was born in Bethlehem to be crucified in the time of Tiberius the Reluctant, Rome's second potentate and precedent to The Mad Emperor who fornicated with his sisters, the empire intact until 14 emperors later when the Reign of Terror ended in the hands of Narcissus to signal its decline as our dynasty expanded to the third generation that was celebrated with a lunch of nilagang baka and ginataang paksiw na tuna between quarantined holidays, a pagan christmas tree and the Spanish farol and belen from the Phantom Biker's daily forage displayed as the coat of arms for the season.     


Like The Ripper of West Yorkshire and Manchester, the virus lurk to strike undetected which the Pugad Baboy branch of the dynasty fended with physical distancing, surgical masks and face shields as the Kingdom of Bakal 2 observed noched buena with a shabu-shabu hotpot, The Windsors parodized by the Thursday Club on Christmas Day with huge bottles of San Miguel Beer Grande in lieu of a Dubonnet Cocktail and a plateful of fried marinated tuna in lieu of dark chocolate while in Baloc the next day, Arisu and Usagi were surreptitiously initiated as Entered Apprentices having parted with Alice in Borderland, and were welcomed with a feast of pork barbecue, pinakbet, ensaladang talong, ginataang hipon and tinolang manok sans rice. 



Finally, the number one rule in The Fundamentals of Caring is to log at least 20 kilometers in the bike trails everyday, something Ben and Trevor missed as they search for the world's largest bovine and deepest pit while in Bakal 2, Jeronicus joined the rice planters in a chorus on the Jingle Jangle of A Christmas Journey as the Phantom Biker pass by to the market and back.
