Since the dawn of time, it has been recognised that mycons are evil, nasty, horrible, and generally unpleasant. It has therefore become the custom in most countries where mycons once were numerous to attack them, and then cook them (usually in butter). It is a little known fact that this was to kill them, not to prepare them for eating. It was found that these evil mycons had one major vulnerability - hot butter. Normal spears, hammers, and swords would not even slow them. Originally, in primitive villages, when the cry "The Mycons are coming", there would be panic. All males able to carry saucepans and packets of butter would muster together in front of the village, awaiting the evil mycons. What ensued was terrible blood- and ichor-shed. Now, in a grim parody of this great combat, these mycons are actually eaten! The taste-bud destroying toxins are highly dangerous, and rather strangely addictive. (Marcus Wischik)
