Oh yes we can, and have, the only way for you to redeem them is to Marry Big Bertha so that we can take the first offspring and train it in the ways of the brother and Sisterhood (They were Hoodies) if that turns out ok,we,ll take the next one as well and form a Tag Team managed by "Big Daddie" Fagash Lils old man,Then and only then will we show you the way to re culivate your neeps to an even larger size,and even provide a Growbag for the purpose,so think about it and let us know how you feel about

"Not water!" shouted Eldrick, who'd managed to avoid bathing for years.

"This patina on my bronzed body has been formed over many years" he wailed, "To strip it off now would be an inhuman act"

Sister Matically laughed manically and gloated, "Do you think that we are interested in your body, you unworthy being! It's your neeps that we want. They are the mystical stones that originally belonged to our Sisterhood and gave us our powers"
