 Six Himzoo Herm Imposters Arrested Inside of Hermbul Palace

It all began when one of the Berm’s guards was doing their usual patrol by the Gym Hall and Pool when he saw something that was impossible: there was a Himzoo Herm in the Gym working out and one in the Pool swimming. Indeed, even then, among the Himzoo Herm and Berm’s personal staff, it had been common knowledge that the Himzoo Herm does not regularly do either of these things because of an apparent disregard for his own fitness and a disliking of water.

More intriguingly, when both alleged Himzoo Herms, having proper identification and looking just like the real Himzoo Herm, were brought before the Berm, he said that neither was the true Himzoo Herm and that he must be lurking somewhere in the Palace. 

Although Himzoo Herm impersonators are common throughout Hermistan and it is not unusual for them to enter the Palace, something more strange was immediately obvious: the Himzoo Herm had said that he would be in the gym. But, as we know, an impersonator was there instead.

Security concerns were raised and the Palace was shut off from the outside world; even the HermPost’s most skilled Reporters were unable to make an entry. When another night passed and the Himzoo Herm was still nowhere to be found, the Berm began to mobilize police forces across Hermistan in order to attempt to rescue or detain the true Himzoo Herm from his hiding place. 

It was in the Press Hall just outside the briefing room when the Himzoo Herm made a surprise appearance, sneaking around the Palace and ending up right in front of the Berm who was just about to give a briefing about his absence. In the briefing, the Berm released the story to the public and said that he would keep a closer eye on Himzoo Herm’s movements in the future.

According to Himzoo Herm, “I was sneaking out to surprise the local Herms! It was all good fun until I heard a rumor that one of my impersonators had been caught. When the Berm started mobilizing the police, I panicked and practically sprinted back to the Palace where the Berm and the Legislature forced me to reveal the identities of my other four imposters. I’m so sad … If only there were somebody reading this who could help me (wink, wink).”

  Homeless Duff Herm Guild Protests Against Large Scale Advertisement The HDHG, the largest free Duff Herm organization in the country, have begun nationwide protests, some revolving into uncontrollable mobs, that have gathered in the country’s largest cities to protest big advertisements and billboards. The Department of Emergency Management says that, “Two hundred billboards worth a grand total of 1,900 Herm Dollars were destroyed by protesters.” While the Department (which is largely run by members of the HDHG) discusses their next move, the Homeless Duff Herm Guild has started a massive mobilization of militias across the country. The leaders of the guild have been silent about their intentions, but the members of the militias believe that they are needed to protect Hermistan from some unknown external threat. Currently, around a thousand Duff Herms march to the border of the Umbucci Clan of Stanistan, leading them is legendary General Jim Kurt.  One HermPost reporter ...

  Herm In Walizburg Invents Flapjack Dispenser In Walizburg, the region that has already made such notable inventions as the double salt shaker which could dispense two different kinds of salt by just pressing one button, a young Herm craftsman and his Eri Herm apprentices invented a creation that may go down in history as a Duff Herm’s flappyjakiest toy: the Flapjack dispenser! This new innovation has already won awards from many different Herm science institutes for its clever use of mechanics and levers. Currently, two hundred copies have been made, and a hundred and eighty-two have been sold for 4 Herm Dollars and 15 cents to a throng of lucky Herms who happened to walk past the store by chance when they were going out to do their daily chores in the city and couldn’t resist buying their Duff Herms this wonderful late Christmas present.  After all the publicity from the various local newspapers, the new invention attracted many rich Herms who were eager to buy the orig...

  HDHG Suspected of Illicit Activity When one Herm, a resident of Pozny, received a letter that he had acquired a vacant plot near the center of town, he did not know whether to be frightened or happy. He ignored the letter, dismissing it as spam, but more and more just kept coming. Stubbornly, he continued to ignore the letters, until, around a week after the letters had started coming, he received a letter from the Mayor’s Office saying that the lot was poorly kept and evidence suggested it belonged to a hoarder, and, that unless he took care of his property, the City Council was going to fine him for neglect of property. Confused, the Herm went to the clerk of the Mayor’s Office and asked if they had, in fact, sent that letter. To his surprise, according to the City’s records, he had owned the property for eleven years now. Understandably, a lot left untended for eleven years would definitely show signs of neglect. Upon finding himself in the center of the City by chance the ...
