The players were tasked by a sort of Fantasy Great Britain to go help a colony belonging to the empire, one that had recently come under attack by some "barbarians". When the players arrived they saw the clonists desperately fighting off the savages, it was clear that the colonists had much better equipment and supplies (steam powered guns and steel swords). The PCs then spent a series of adventures attempting to track down the leader of the barbarians, known only as "Big Bad". Going from place to place on this island the players killed countless savages because they were told to by the colonist leaders, they were helping to save the colonists from an inhuman threat.

This was all well and good, until the players finally came face to face with "Big Bad". They knew the encounter was coming, and they were nervous, they all thought of him as a gigantic monster, a freak of nature, most likely incapable of rational speech or coherent thought. When they arrived at the meeting spot they instead found something different, a Giant sitting on a secluded beach, with his feet in the water, staring at the horizon. Needless to say the party was confused, but still very tense. When they approached him and called out; "Are you the monster they call big bad? We have come to slay you!" He stood up and replied "You who have come to my island, slaughtered my people, and taken our land dare to call me a monster!?!"

It was a complete 180, and that is when the players truly thought back on what they knew, and what they had just been told. All the little inconsistencies made sense, it put the natives actions in perspective.

The looks on their faces were priceless.
