Had that event pop up for me in a Miao Ying campaign, which I think adds to the hilarity.

* Entering the final battle itself as the Ogre Kingdoms evokes what could be described as Fridge Humor. No matter who you're playing, you're only able to make it into the Forge of Souls to face Be'lakor because of a loophole revealed in the Tome of Fates. In other words, Be'lakor has every reason to believe that his ascension being interrupted isn't just unlikely, but nigh impossible. So he's minding his own business, about to become a god, when suddenly some ogres appear in his sanctum looking for a meal. Even if he massacres the ogres and succeeds in his plan, the fact that they appeared at all would still be a complete NonSequitur to him. At least with Chaos or Kislev he'd at least understand why they're there, and the dragons of Cathay have a long history fighting Chaos.
** Especially hilarious when you imagine him learning the [[GodEating utterly stupid reason]] they showed up.
