Can I win this with a haiku?

 

[WarderDragon]

I suppose anything is possible. Once upon a time, an Orc by the name of Ga'kuct won the Dawn Book Contest by submitting the now famous Pykdure Buuk.

An excerpt from Pykdure Buuk by Ga'kuct

This is Gak.

Gak kills humans by cutting them in half.

Gak gets shineys (gold), lots of shineys.

Gak gets female orcs. Beautiful female orc.

Gak Wins!​
