Enemies to the West

A knight and his men return to their castle after a hard month
of riding.


“How are we faring?” his king asks.


“Sire,” replies the knight, “I have been robbing and pillaging on
your behalf all day, burning the towns of your enemies in the
west.”


“What?!” shrieks the king. “I don’t have any enemies to the
west!”


“Oh.” replies the knight. “Well, you do now.”
