Monster Apocalypse

Twas the nights of Maplemas, Versalmas, and more
And all the Maplers F2'd and adored
For there were plenty of treasures, drops, and strange mobs
There were events, new locations, and even new jobs!

And what on my sharp GM eyes should appear?
Monster Bags, lots of them, and how'd they get here?
"These bags," I did cry, "will make Maplers die.
They'll spill right open, and monsters will fly."

"We must hide them at once!" Hime exclaimed
Crash pointed out zombie 'shrooms must be tamed

"But how shall we hide them?" Talia inquired
Tis when Nebel devised a plot, well inspired.
"We'll take them up high, and much above Orbis.
No one will find them, they'll never come for us."

"A great idea!" they did cry out!
"But who should we trust, to bring this about?"
They planned and they voted,
They discussed and they thought
Then suddenly "All of us will help with this plot."

On Lallent, On Libra!
On Xakimbo, Daliah
Zawmbee, and Tibaroo,
Vector, Anstar, Tiara!

Nethe led the trek, high above view of snoops
But then from the GM crowd came an...

... "oops".

For everyone so excited to go
Forgot to fasten the Monster Bags! No!
They fell from the sky, with a deafening "whup"
And all of the Maplers, just then, did look up.

Balrogs and Mushrooms!
Slimes and great birds!
Boogeys and Pigs
in outfits absurd!

Now...

We need your strength Warriors!
And Bowman, aim swift!
Thieves, all be sneaky!
And Pirates, be quick!
Magicians as well
will need to cast magic
Or all of us fear
The results will be tragic.

The monsters, they fell, and blotted the sun!
And each Mapler knew...
... The Day of Darkness had come
