       Once upon a tomorrow, there was a Prince Andre the llama the third. He is a fair lad, but one memory scars him in more than one way. The day he was accidently put in a toaster.

He was waiting for his magnificent Saturday breakfast even though it was Wensday. He prepared the tea. Mmm. That chamomile and peppermint tea smelled delicious. He stirred in his 5% milk and added his special 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% white flour and .000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% whole wheat flour (for healthiness). He checked the toast. Nearly done. Just as he was seeing if there really was a marshmallow in the toaster, he felt a hand grab his neck and he was pushed into the toaster. He screamed for help, but no one heard his cries in the blackness and depths of the toaster.

Five weeks later, he woke up in a hospital. A gentle-looking cow-nurse came in and saw he was awake. She led him to a mirror. He gasped at his unnoble face. An ugly, toaster-made scar ran down his forehead and left side of his regal neck. And glasses. Big, round glasses. No one knew where they came from. No matter how hard he pulled, they wouldn't come off. He was ashamed of his appearance.

To this day, he has never seen the likes of a kitchen since the day he got lost in a toaster. If you mention the scar or glasses to him, especially on Wensdays (his least favorite day of the week, for he can't spell it, and it is a terrible day for llamas.), he may order you put in a toaster, to understand the pain and suffering he went through. Or, if he's in a bad mood, cut off your nails.
