As the night deepened, the celebrations grew wilder.
The dwarves took it upon themselves to properly introduce the HobMankey to the art of drinking, filling the town plaza with laughter and slurred speeches.
Thrain and Lolo, caught up in the revelry, turned it into a contest—seeing who could finish their cup of beer the fastest.
Even Fudge, who usually lurked in Michael's shadow, couldn't help but join in on the festivities.
He ended up becoming the unofficial mascot for the village, showing everyone his 'ninja' moves, which were quite contrary to what a real ninja should do.
The dwarves joined in too, making fun of themselves by braiding their beards in odd and strange ways. One even managed to weave his into the likeness of Michael's face, much to everyone's amusement.
