Llanfyllin is a small town in Powys, traditional county of Montgomeryshire, mid Wales, lying on the River Cain by the Berwyn Mountains. The town is known for its holy well, dedicated to Saint Myllin. Llanfyllin used to be a small independant country inhabited by a Russian familly called the 'Korvich's' however is was easily taken over by a tribe of Gypsies who suffered no life-loss in the great battle of 1983..... scholars believe that they were so successful because the gypsies were under the influence of performance enhancing substances and also the fact that most of the Russian tribe were inbred. The invading Gypsies were in fact on a hunt for a special mushroom thought to grow in the nearby hills and shortly after finding Llanfyllin they decided to stay when they found these 'special' mushrooms littering the hills. Llanfyllin is now a thriving hippy habbitat and one of the great wonders of the world. It is advised that any person visiting the town should only enter naked to blend in with the inhabitants. - During the cold war the Americans took an active stance on Llanfyllin and even declared war against it in 1968, when the Korvich's empire expanded into building a school to brainwash the newer non-russian generations, the American Air Forces dropped the 3rd atomic bomb into the middle of the town, in total there was £15 worth of damage. However if you travel into the newly rebuilt school you can find living evidence of the radiation damage in such students with the odd surnames of Kneal (Homospakiens) and Harris, where such ailments include lack of growth in the pelvic region, extended stretching of hair and spine. And in the sickening example of Harris (Homo-Sheepiens) the hair thickens to such an extent that it soon resembles that of sheeps wool and no matter the amount of combing nothing can reverse this terrible side effect of the excess of plutonium in the area.
