A Duty Dance with Mad Libs Mondays

Every Monday, I will post a mad libs list, which you can respond to by posting a comment with the appropriate words. Below, you will find the original story and where your words should be substituted for the originals. If you still want to play, you can find the list of blanks for which you will supply words at the bottom of the page. The number for each blank will help you substitute them correctly. Make sure your words are awesome.

This one is a [19], and had to be, since it was [Past tense of 17] by a pillar of [20]. It begins like this:

[21]:

[22] has come [23] in [Plural of 24].

It ends like this:

[25]?
