Ballad: Phrenology
Phrenology appears in this ballad not as a mere scientific curiosity, but as the pivot around which justice, or the lack of it, hilariously turns.

Ballad:Old Paul And Old Tim
Old Paul and Old Tim were two aging men set on capturing the affection of one young woman—Emily. Their rivalry was not marked by charm, wealth, or wit, for they stood level in almost every regard: both were bold, old, and rather indistinct. To Emily, neither man held much more promise than the other; they simply existed as options in a world where choices were slim and expectations were high. She was not particularly swayed by either, and her affections were more influenced by external opinions—namely,…-

Ballad: The Two Majors
The Two Majors introduces a peculiar bond shared by two stern yet admired military officers whose command style thrives on discipline rather than praise. Major La Guerre and Major Makredi Preper, though gruff in demeanor, are paradoxically beloved by their men for their steadfast standards and unwavering consistency.
