==Goplu's ''Inferno'' (Canto III)==
{{Distinguish|Goplu's food bowl}}

''“Through me the way is to the city dolent;''<br>
''Through me the way is to eternal dole;''<ref>''Dole'' is the brand that sponsored ''[[Super Monkey Ball]]''. Hell makes people go "bananas", hence the allusion to Dole.</ref><br>
''Through me the way [[Among Us|among]] the nerpies lost.''<br>

''[[Justice]] incited my sublime Creator;''<ref>Alluding to Tyler the Creator. See [[Song of the day|this article]] for more.</ref><br>
''Created me divine Om[[nerpa]]''<nowiki/>''tence,''<br>
''The highest Wiki and the primal [[Red Link]].''<br>

''Before me there were no created Articles,''<br>
''Only eterne, and I eternal last.''<br>
''[[Abandon all hope ye who enter here...|All hope abandon, ye who enter in!]]”''<br>

These words of a sombre webpage I beheld<br>
Written upon the [[Challenge 2|challenge of a Wiki Camp 2]];<br>
Whence I: ''“Erm...in English, please!”''<br>

And oomf<ref>One of my followers (on Twitter). The protagonist and oomf are heavily implied to be mutuals.</ref> to me, as one experienced:<br>
''“Here all sus''<ref>Slang originating from [[YouTube Poop]]. Not to be confused with the Among Us usage of the word.</ref> ''needs must be abandoned,''<br>
''All here face impending [[total seal extinction]].''<br>

''We to the place have come, where I have told thee''<br>
''Thou shalt behold the nerpas dolorous''<br>
''Who have foregone, or, perhaps, never held the good of intellect.”''<ref>Nerpas have forsaken God's gift of wisdom. Lmfao!</ref><br>

[[Yaoi|And after he had laid his hand on mine<br>
With joyful mien, whence I was comforted,<br>
He led me in among the secret things.<br>]]<ref>Not yaoi. This yaoi scene has symbolic connotations.</ref>

There sighs, complaints, and [[Inkling Lincoln Loud|lincolns loud]]<br>
Resounded through the air without a star,<br>
Whence I, at the beginning, wept thereat.<br>

Languages diverse, horrible dialects,<br>
Accents of angegpiIOYIU U0WU U09)*& ()#*%()%iw_)aoKSVGPSOMGPSKEOP[lg[pl[gpsl[olj eto-0eu-ae wyqw,<br>

[[File:Elizabeth10.png|250px]]<ref>Author was [[Elizabeth Tower]]'d in the middle of writing this stanza.</ref>

And I, who had my head with horror bound,<br>
Said: ”''Master, what is this which now I hear?''<br>
''What songs be these, which seem by pain so dogshit?''”<br>

And he to me: ”''Those be our [[#Okin_music|team jingles]],''<br>
''You asshole—we've five of them,''<br>
''Each a testament of phocine vice.''<br>

''Commingled are they with that caitiff choir''<br>
''Of ucky Seals and ucky [[#Members|Competitors]],''<br>
''Faithful not to God, but to self.''<br>

The heavens expelled them, not to be less fair;<br>
Nor them the elimination line receives,<br>
For glory<ref>For Glory (''ガチ, Serious'') is an online mode that appears in [[https://www.ssbwiki.com/Super_Smash_Bros._4|''Super Smash Bros. 4'']]. In this mode, all matches are played on Ω form stages, with no items naturally spawning, and with character customization disabled. Among other rulesets, players can select to play two-stock one-on-one matches with a five minute time limit in For Glory.</ref> none the damned would have from them.”<br>

And I: “''O oomfie, what so grievous is''<br>
''To these, that maketh them lament so sore?''”<br>
He answered: ” ''I will tell thee very briefly.''<br>

''These have no longer any hope of escape;''<br>
''And this damned life of theirs is so [[Cringe|debased]],''<br>
''They envious are of every other fate.''<br>

''No fame of them the world permits to be;''<br>
''Misericord and Justice both disdain them.''<br>
''Let us not speak of them, but look, and pass.''”<br>

And I, who looked again, beheld a banner,<br>
Which, whirling round, ran on so rapidly,<br>
That of all pause it seemed to me indignant;<br>

And after it there came so long a [[Big Boy|train]]<br>
Of people, that I ne’er would have believed<br>
That ever Death so many had undone.<br>

When some among them I had recognised.<br>
I looked, and I beheld the shade of him<br>
Who made through cowardice the great refusal.<br>

Forthwith I comprehended, and was certain,<br>
That this the sect was of the caitiff wretches<br>
Hateful to God and to his enemies.<br>

These miscreants, who never were alive,<br>
Were Okinesque, and were stung exceedingly<br>
By Aguberries and by Okinberries that were there.<br>

These did their faces irrigate with blood,<br>
Which, with their tears commingled, at their feet<br>
By the disgusting seals gathered up.<br>

And when to gazing farther I betook me.<br>
Shapes I saw on [[The Toy Where You Put The Shape In The Corresponding Hole]];<br>
Whence said I: ”''Master, now vouchsafe to me,''<br>

''That I may know what these are, and what law''<br>
''In the hole puts them so correspondingly,<br>
As I discern athwart the dusky light.''”<br>

And oomf to me: ''“These shapes shall all be known<br>''
''To thee, as soon as we our footsteps stay''<br>
''Upon the dismal shore of [[Florida]].''”''<br>''

Then with mine eyes ashamed and downward cast,<br>
Fearing my words might irksome be to him,<br>
From speech refrained I till we reached the river.<br>

And lo! towards us coming in a boat<br>
An old laes, hoary with the hair of eld, [[Crying shame|Crying]]:<br>
“''Woe unto you, ye souls depraved''<br>

''Hope [[Template:Nerpay Nevermore|nevermore]] to look upon the heavens;''<br>
''I come to lead you to the other shore,''<br>
''To the eternal shades in heat and frost.''<br>

''And thou, that yonder standest, living soul,''<br>
''Withdraw thee from these seals, who are dead."<br>''
But when he saw that I did not withdraw,<br>

He said: ”''By other ways, by other ports''<br>
''Thou to the shore shalt come, not here, for, passage;''<br>
''A lighter vessel needs must carry thee''.”<br>

And unto him the Guide<ref>Allusion to Terraria; specifically, the Guide, who is known for being Terraria's first ever [[Gay]] character.</ref>: ”''Vex thee not, Charon;''<br>
''It is so willed there where is power to do''<br>
''That which is willed; and farther question not.''”<br>

There at were quieted the fleecy cheeks<br>
Of him the ferryman of the livid fen,<br>
Who round about his eyes had wheels of flame.<br>

But all those souls who weary were and naked<br>
Their colour changed and gnashed their teeth together,<br>
As soon as they had heard those cruel words.<br>

God they blasphemed and their progenitors,<br>
The pinniped race, the place, the time, the seed<br>
Of their en[[gender]]<nowiki/>ing and of their birth!<br>

Thereafter all together they drew back,<br>
Bitterly weeping, to the accursed shore,<br>
Which waiteth every man who fears not God.<br>

Charon the demon, with the eyes of glede,<br>
Beckoning to them, collects them all together,<br>
Beats with his oar whoever lags behind.<br>

As in the [[Fall|autumn-time]] the leaves [[Synonyms for ratio|fall off]],<br>
First one and then another, till the branch<br>
Unto the earth surrenders all its spoils;<br>

In similar wise the evil seed of Adam<br>
Throw themselves from that margin one by one,<br>
At signals, as a bird unto its lure.<br>

So they depart across the dusky wave,<br>
And ere upon the other side they land,<br>
Again on this side a new troop assembles.<br>

“''My son,''” the courteous Master said to me,<br>
“''All those who perish in the wrath of the Uckinzaza Holiday''<br>
''Here meet together out of every land;''<br>

''And ready are they to pass o’er the river,''<br>
''Because celestial Justice spurs them on,''<br>
''So that their fear is turned into that [[okinflava slushhh]] 😂''<br>

''This way there never passes a good soul;''<br>
''And hence if {{Stock|Ostap}} [[The Ostaps]] doth complain of thee''<br>
''Well mayst thou know now what his speech imports.''”<br>

== Pearberry Island ==
No...Was it all a lie?

This being finished, all the dusk champaign<br>
Trembled so violently, that of that terror<br>
The recollection bathes me still with sweat.<br>

The land of tears gave forth a blast of wind,<br>
And fulminated a vermilion light,<br>
‘Which overmastered in me every sense,<br>

And as a man whom sleep hath seized I fell.<br>
