Parody of The 12 Days of Christmas

LOL, I was hoping people might continue that. Thanks, James
Puts thinking cap on

Now it just gets ever so slightly more difficult

'On the sixth day of Christmas, my Challenge gave to me
Six witches cackling
Five frightknights
Four quest objects
Three dungeon levels
Two clue items
And a Treguard who says "Oooh, Nasty".
My 6 witches, for the pedants like me out there: Heggatty, Peggatty, Greystagg, Mrs Grimwold, Mildread, Mistress Goody. Yes, some of them might be more "hags" than technically witches, but they're being included. And I'm sure although we didn't see Greystagg actually cackle, she did a lot of it off-screen.

'On the seventh day of Christmas, my Challenge gave to me
Seven walls-a-riddling
Six witches cackling
Five frightknights
Four quest objects
Three dungeon levels
Two clue items
And a Treguard who says "Oooh, Nasty".
Seven Walls (including doors, not including the Brollachan, who just moved through walls): Olgarth, Granitas, Golgarach, Brangwen, Dooris, Doorkis, Dooreen. The Blockers didn't ask riddles. Yes, some asked questions rather than riddles, but it has to scan.

'On the eighth day of Christmas, my Challenge gave to me
Eight teams-a-winning
Seven walls-a-riddling
Six witches cackling
Five frightknights
Four quest objects
Three dungeon levels
Two clue items
And a Treguard who says "Oooh, Nasty".

On the 10th day of Christmas, my Challenge? gave to me,
Ten Pookas pooking
Nine jesters laughing
Eight teams-a-winning
Seven walls-a-riddling
Six witches cackling
Five frightknights
Four quest objects
Three dungeon levels
Two clue items
And a Treguard who says "Oooh, Nasty".
It was all I could think of! What else do pookas do?
-
'On the eleventh day of Christmas, my Challenge gave to me
Eleven kidsies roaming
Ten Pookas pooking
Nine jesters laughing
Eight teams-a-winning
Seven walls-a-riddling
Six witches cackling
Five frightknights
Four quest objects
Three dungeon levels
Two clue items
And a Treguard who says "Oooh, Nasty".'

(here it comes)

Eleven kidsies roaming
Ten Pookas pooking
Nine jesters laughing

Altogether now:
'And a Treguard who says "Ooh, Nasty".'
Well done everyone.

I'd love to see the 12 Lord Fears-a-leaping. That could be a fabulous Knightmare spin-off stage play thing.
-
Indeedy, but also rather worrying!

I just have this lovely image of them all jumping around the stage shouting at Treguard and some winning kidsies.
Hopping mad, you might say.
-
Ho ho. I think I just won the award for worst joke.
But perhaps the 12 Lord Fears-a-leaping might be a worthy addition to Hugo's panto. In the middle of a scene, on they hop, leap around a bit, then jump off again. No need to explain it to the audience or anything.

You are all very, very sad.

Festus, the Pooka's insulting Mummy. Din-dins!
