Medieval 4chan Siege Misfortune

Curses! I wish but for rest Here be good folk of Hastings. I awoke for I heareth the chattering of armies and smelleth the scent of smoke and ashes. Dost thou know the cause for my misfortune? Thy land is to be besieged, fool

An anonymous forum user writes in exaggerated medieval English about awakening to the sounds of armies and smoke in Hastings, asking why misfortune has befallen him. Another user bluntly replies that his land is under siege, making the joke a deadpan explanation of an obvious crisis. It is sent as a reaction to someone dramatically asking about a problem whose cause is already clear.
