We all know the legend of Rumpelstiltskin becoming 'matched' during his stakes-wager game for the soul of a beautiful damsel, but the impish fortune-trickster had moved on since then and settled down in Arklow (Europe) under a new name and was using a special social-media 'costume' for the St. Patrick's Day season which returned him to his old 'glow' and offered him the chance to examine capitalism superstitions on modern Earth and made him wonder if he should venture away from Ireland for a change (ha).



RUMPELSTILTSKIN: I shall journey to America, where capitalist race makes for media-story image (wow).



Of course, he's right. In the United States (of America!), capitalism-fortune dictates trends, culture, street-ethos, and even superstition(s). Rumpelstiltskin, the protagonist (albeit 'antihero') of this Western-world 'dark' faerie-tale, considered how Wall Street imaginings in America (USA) created a strong 'foothold' for fortune and profiteers and 'pure' ambition and why (arguably) capitalism 'state' created a new 'image' (for social-media!) about the 'traffic' diagrams of commercial vanities (hmm).



RUMPELSTILTSKIN: I've found an 'ideal' Earth-prince (Amlan Satan), an inheritor-son and stock-investor (Ford).



This 'Earth-prince' (Amlan Satan) Rumpelstiltskin found happened to be a natural chess-wizard and huge fan of Bobby Fischer (American legend in chess and rival-contender against the USSR's Boris Spassky during Cold-War chess 'social media' buzz!). Prince Satan studied the 'natural-psychology' of human society/group decision-making reflecting politics-outcomes and fortune/resource governance intelligence and how competition-instincts yielded special behaviors regarding natural violence, clan-based biases, and developmental profit-sharing paranoia and framed his 'chess-education' as a re-presentation of his grand Wall-Street (Ford) acumen. This is why Rumpelstiltskin hoped to challenge/entice the Earth-prince for an examination of capitalism superstition!

RUMPELSTILTSKIN: I've procured for you an excellent Irish-chess set and a Derby-horse for investment.
SATAN (Amlan): This set is from Arklow (Ireland)...and you're some cyber-messenger of capitalism-IQ?
RUMPELSTILTSKIN: Indeed...and I've an eye for a Derby-horse with the name of my Irish town (Arklow!).
SATAN: You want me to create a chess-diagram 'tale' for capitalism-lore surrounding Arklow (Derby-race)?
RUMPELSTILTSKIN: What've you to lose, prince...and won't it 'enhance' your examination for society?
SATAN: I guess my girlfriend (Shelbye O'Hara) would be quite pleased (or impressed).
RUMPELSTILTSKIN: Excellence...let's proceed (shall we then?).
SATAN: Alright!



Amlan Satan decided to wager some investment and storyboards for Rumpelstiltskin claimed-Derby horse (Arklow), named after his new Irish hometown and watched in amazement as the promising but under-valued 'dark-horse' of the racing-world for 'social-media mint' became a millionaire and offered Amlan a chance to create a 'chess-competitive' capitalist race story about the quality of superstition and fantasy in investment decision-making and what it'd reveal for the human mind of fortune's 'magical' arrows of conceit...or humility.

AMLAN SATAN: Arklow's a million-dollar baby; I'll use a chess-array to 'address' fortune-IQ for American pride (wow).



Rumpelstiltskin watched in ironic delight as the prince (Amlan Satan) expanded his Arklow-chess cyber-comics 'capitalist race' presentations which drew in the interest of the Financial Services Volunteer Force which sought social-media 'commentary' regarding the interlinks between investment and culture (or 'simple' rhetoric!).

RUMPELSTILTSKIN: We'll see if the prince curbs his exploits or seeks greater glory than that of a bard.



SHELBYE: Why're you so 'drawn' by the couture of capitalism now, Satan?
AMLAN: There's a chess-magic to investing in the 'worlds' of fortune and human minds, darling!
SHELBYE: Who brought you to this 'revelation' suddenly, darling?
AMLAN: I can't say; but this social-media titling/castling for chess-storyboards casts great beauty.
SHELBYE: Maybe you'll seek a 'greater-beauty' to enhance this new laurel-mind of yours (then)?
AMLAN: No, no; I'm sticking to my pride; perhaps casting you as a 'model' of fortune demographics.
SHELBYE: Good.



RUMPELSTILTSKIN: This prince has made the wise-turns; we'll keep watch to monitor his Ego/eggs.
