Jolting awake from nightmare about the nuke weasel, Cesar found himself in a white knuckled sweat in his roofless abode. He released his grip, only to feel an object clatter down to the floor. What appeared to be a broomstick handle had found its way into his hand, and upon closer inspection, it very eerily resembled the handle of the broom from the wizard/sorcerer/psychopaths home.

Cesar promptly, screamed, defecated, and passed out, possibly in that order. :/
