Lore

Thaddeus Quibblewick was a wizard who was renowned for his eccentricity, his unruly beard, and his penchant for playing pranks on unsuspecting folk. His favorite target? His best friend and fellow adventurer, Rogar the Rogue.
One fateful morning, as the sun peeked over the city walls, Thaddeus sat in his cluttered tower, surrounded by bubbling potions and creaky spellbooks. His eyes gleamed mischievously as he concocted a plan—a prank that would go down in magical history.
 The inspiration struck him like a lightning bolt: a Hat of Invisibility. But not just any invisibility hat—this one would be different. Thaddeus wanted to create something that would turn the tables on Rogar, who had once stolen Thaddeus’s prized spellbook and replaced it with a cookbook of dubious recipes.
 Thaddeus worked tirelessly, stitching together threads of illusion, humor, and enchantment. He wove in a dash of absurdity and a pinch of paradox. The result was a hat that looked utterly ordinary when worn but held a secret twist. When activated, it would make the wearer invisible while revealing the hat itself. Thaddeus chuckled, imagining Rogar’s baffled expression.
 The Hat of Invisibility was complete—a floppy, unassuming hat with a hidden agenda. Thaddeus even added a tiny label inside: “For the discerning prankster.”
 On the first day of April, Thaddeus invited Rogar to his tower. “My dear friend,” he said, feigning solemnity, “I have a gift for you—a magical hat that grants true invisibility.”
 Rogar’s eyes widened. “Invisibility? Truly?”
 “Indeed,” Thaddeus replied, handing over the hat. “Wear it, and you’ll vanish from sight. Perfect for your rogueish escapades.”
 Rogar donned the hat, feeling a thrill. “This is incredible! Thank you, Thaddeus.”
 Thaddeus suppressed a grin. “Remember, activate it with a twist of the brim.”
 Rogar stepped outside, turned the brim, and vanished. He tiptoed through the market, swiping apples and startling pigeons. But as he passed the guards at the city gate, he heard their laughter.
 “Look, Jenkins,” said one guard. “A floating hat! Must be a new fashion trend.”
 Rogar froze. The Hat of Invisibility hovered above him, its invisible magic revealing itself. The guards pointed, and soon the entire city knew of the “Hat-Wearer.”
 Rogar was captured, thrown into the dungeon, and interrogated. “Who are you? Why the hat?”
 He stammered, “I’m Rogar the Rogue, and this hat… it’s a gift from Thaddeus!”
 The guards exchanged puzzled glances. “Thaddeus Quibblewick? The prankster wizard?”
 “Yes,” Rogar admitted. “He said it would make me invisible!”
 The guards burst into laughter. “Well, it worked! You’re the most visible invisible man we’ve ever seen.”
 Thaddeus, watching from his tower, snorted into his tea. He hurried to the jail, bailing out his hapless friend with a hefty bag of gold. “Expensive prank, Rogar,” he said. “But worth every coin.”
 Rogar rubbed his bruised ego. “Next time, warn me about your magical jests.”
