Father Great Pipe and Rotterdam Will Tale of Vim Kings
A faded tale recounts the Vim Kings of Motterdam and a famed will from Butch Smoker in Holhind. It describes a grand pipe ceremony in Rotterdam, gifts of tobacco and cigars, and a demand that mourners smoke without interruption during the funeral rites. The document ends with an air of mystery over its final fate.
