The Babylonian Cycle
The Tale of the Stuffed Bear

And it came to pass in the days of Sheradin the Great and Ivonava the =
Strong that a store  was opened upon the great station of Babylon 5. And =
this store sold items of novelty, that it might make a profit. But =
Sheradin was greatly displeased with this store, and after much =
fighting, was granted permission to close it.

Yet before the store was closed, Ivonava did try to jest with Sheradin, =
by giving him a stuffed bear. And this bear wore a small jacket, with =
the initials "J.S." upon the front and "Bearbalon 5" upon the back. And =
Sheradin the Great was not amused. And he did take the bear, and threw =
it out an airlock, into the void of space.

And there are many rumors as to the fate of the stuffed bear. Some say =
that a patrol did see the bear and did destroy it with its lasers. And =
some say that it was not destroyed, and it drifted in the void of space =
for many years, and was lost beyond the rim. And some say it was found =
and given to David, son of Sheradin the Great and Delenn the Wise. And =
some say that Lorien the First did take it in the golden chariot with =
which he claimed Sheradin, twenty years after his return from =
Za=92ha=92dum. And some say that none of these things came to pass, and =
that they are all rumor, and have no basis in fact. But perhaps the bear =
would disagree. But alas! that is another Tale for another day.
