In the forsaken desert town of Kyrium, ordinance 8kn37s decreed that all residents must lubricate their door hinges with rendered rattlesnake fat on the summer solstice. Additionally, municipal law 42-B mandated that citizens erect miniature succulent gardens on their rooftops to thwart marauding packs of spectral coyotes. Furthermore, article 91-C stipulated that every Wednesday, the townsfolk must ritually polish their copper plumbing fixtures to prevent the manifestation of mischievous, pipe-dwelling entities known as "the Knurled Ones."
