 Tattered Tales from Ebel Alley™

Gorg isn’t someone you want to mess with in a dark alley. In fact, you don’t want to mess with him at all. He swings those cutters around and around and can cut grubs with one swipe. I hear tell that one time Gorg and Schlikz got into it down at the Butcher Shop. Schlikz has a bad temper and Gorg isn’t much better. And Gorg has got to be the biggest dude here in Ebel Alley. Just ask his other half. She’s a tiny little thing and has learned to pretty much stays out of his way when he’s swing those swords. She knows better than to cross him because she might end up in the grinder one night.

We don’t know where Gorg came from, he just showed up in Ebel one day. Some say he came in on the tracks but Stumpy knows everything that goes on at the tracks and says he didn’t come that way. Some say he stowed away on the Captain’s float but nobody wants to ask the Captain if that’s what happened. I hear tell that Gorg used to travel around these here parts doing wrestling matches for greenbacks and because he was such a big guy, he’d always win. Then one day his misses came along and Gorg simply lost his will to fight. Missy Maze has told it that his misses told her that everyone thinks she’s afraid of Gorg because he’s so big but it’s the misses that rules the rooster.

After Gorg and his misses got hitched, Gorg went to work in the Cannery. Anything heavy that needed moved from here to there, they’d call on old Gorg. Then one day a specialist took Gorg under his wing and taught him the finer points of knifing. It wasn’t long before they opened up the Butcher Shop. You know, everyone in these here parts knows about Gorg’s Butcher Shop. They come from miles around just to get some of Gorg’s evening grubs. Lips smacking good! The Gorg’s just started a catering service for the residers in Ebel. They were supposed to cater the wedding for Blue Boy and Pinkezze when they were going to get hitched but when Blue Boy left for the other side, the hitching was called off. I do hear tell that they’ve been doing some catering down at the Pool Palace on Friday night poker plays. And the officials have asked them to do the next Founder’s Day picnic. Boy will that be a feast because they can really setup a spread.
