Then, one stormy day, a Zoq, a Fot, and a Pik were walking up a steep path looking for something good to eat, when a bolt of lightning struck nearby.

	Thank you for playing The Ur-Quan Masters.
	This game has been brought to you by Frungy! The Sport of Kings!
	No it wasn't!
	Yes it was!
	Frungy had nothing to do with it! This game was about war, slavery, intolerance heroism, justice, and the inevitable triumph of Good over Evil!
	Are you crazy?! The developers got millions in Frungy endorsements!
	No they didn't.
