The Vashian Drunkard

The Vashians are a proud and arrogant people, and because of this there is no end to stories making fun of them. One of the more well known tales is the ballad of the Vashian Drunk. It was penned by the wandering poet Silvodo Jack, and tells the story of a a disgusting, drunken fat man who between swings of a bottle spews an idiotic tale of a invisible, impenetrable bubble enclosing the nations of the Westerasi sea, supposedly created by the gods and is protected by their greatest angel against the outside world. Before he gets to finish, the old man is hauled off by the city watch to be put in the stocks and flogged. 
The ballad is popular with the low folk, and often sing the song with two people. One person is the narrator, Silvodo, who is playing the instrument, and the other is the Vashian, who drunkenly dances around with a bottle in his hand. The ballad is enjoyed by all except the Vashians, who permanently banned Silvodo from ever entering the county again after he circulated it, and allegedly put a bounty on his head.
