King's Lynn was first settled in 1620, by a small group of tree surgeons. The group were tired of travelling miles from their home in London to their work in Norwich.

  • King's Lynn was first settled in 1620, by a small group of tree surgeons. The group were tired of travelling miles from their home in London to their work in Norwich. They decided that the commute was ridiculous and they should build their homes closer to their work, and thus King's Lynn was born. The town remained a relatively unknown, backwater town for the next few centuries until 1874. In 1874 King's Lynn was the site of a large battle fought between the towns population, and an army of evil consisting of zombies, goblins and politicians. The army of evil was led by the Balrog of Moria, and almost succeeded in destroying the town. However disaster stuck for the army of evil when they accidentally disturbed the town's honey farm and were quickly chased away from the town by disgruntled bees. Many historians have theorised that this event is what started the towns obsession with bees. In 1909 King's Lynn was again invaded, this time by a German expeditionary force. The small German army was tasked with killing all the inhabitants of the town, and then replacing them, thereby forming a small army of sleeper agents. However after arriving in the town the Germans quickly returned home after an evaluation of the town revealed its sanitation facilities were not satisfactory. In 1959 King's Lynn was attacked by Godzilla and the town was almost entirely destroyed. Godzilla was able to roam around the town destroying property and killing people for a full 2 days before the British army was able to subdue the creature. This incident has led to the inhabitants of King's Lynn being terrified of Godzilla returning, a fear rare for Europe and usually only found in Japan.
