Title: The Ballad of Hermie, the Giant Sea Pig of Mêlée Island
Fandom: Monkey Island
Characters: Important-Looking Pirates (well one of them), Guybrush Threepwood, other cameos
Rating: General
Words: 642
Summary: A heartfelt (?) ditty about the rise and the demise of this fantastic creature of the deep.
Additional Tags: Poetry, Ballads
Notes: So there's this on the wall in the Scumm Bar in Escape from Monkey Island:
It's not there in The Secret of Monkey Island, so clearly its origin is somewhere in between that and Escape. And one morning I literally woke up with a verse of a ballad about this creature in my head. Pirates are not a very well-mannered and attentive audience, by the way. (The specific characters given some interjecting lines in this aren't really important, so I didn't tag for them; it was mostly a gag from when I posted this to a Monkey Island Discord server using emotes, and I decided to keep the attributions.)
