*nods* well that scene went perfect... hehe, did you see their faces when Heavenwise decided to sneak into Shishelinda's bedroom?" Golradir whispers while observing the final scene. "*grins* yes, they were surprised and more or less shocked, but to tell you the truth this was the least they expected..." I respond before taking another cup of tea. "Our love is right, those fellows of Brumelei expected that we would sing a song or two, you clearly can see the jealousy in their eyes." Gonfindl whispers as Shishelinda starts the last song of the Play. "Oh? well the final part has started...I must admit, they sure did their best." I notice as i hear the song. Gonfindl peeks trough the curtains and then says "well the Fairy Queen sure enjoys it too. You have to see the look on her face... pure pleasure."
"*smiles* we have to thank her for that, after all it were she along with Isil's mother who taught us how to sing better." Golradir notices while taking a piece of parchment. "*reads* ah, the last scene is a kissing scene geesh... before the tragedy takes place." he adds before gazing at the stage. Barely half an hour later many people applaude and cheer as the actors take their final bow. I notice the wizards of Clarytoha standing up and talk to Landin who then walks over to the stage and then announces "good people of Brumelei, the Fairy Kingdom and our village the jury will now retreat and discuss the results of this contest, to determine who's the winner of this year, I do ask everybody to remain patient, in the meantime do give a warm applause for our comedy entertainers Isil, Golradir and Gonfindl!"
"*sighes* this is it, now it is our turn..." Gonfindl notices while taking his mask. We then walk upon the stage and perform our little act.
"*points* alright Isil, you're going to sell apples, for three shillings a piece."
"*wide eyes* three? geesh are those cheap... I'm going to rip my skirt on this you know"
(*crowd laughs*)
"it is merely an act,"
"Golradir, guess you never learned that a vendor has to make a profit? ten shillings..;"
"are those golden apples then?" Gonfindl asks
(crowd laughs again)
"if it were golden apples you would have to pay at least ten golden crowns for that"
"*falls on butt* excuse me? that is the prize for a house almost."
"*frowns* what kind of a house did you had in mind? Gonfindl? a stable?"
"*stamps feet* no no no, Isil you're a vendor and you sell apples for three shillings a piece, and Gonfindl is your customer..." Golradir says rather desperate.
"*innocent voice* but I don't like apples..."
(crowd laughs hard)
"*raises hands to heaven* for crying out loud, you buy the apples who says that you have to eat them!"
"*hands on hips* then why do I have to buy apples if I don't eat them? I might as well buy cherries instead..."
(crowd laughs even harder)
"*hands in hair desperate voice* noooooo, the act says 'vendor sells apples, not cherries, a-p-p-l-e-s!!!"
"*frowns* sorry Golradir but I'm not going to buy apples if I don't eat them, it would be a waste of money..."
"*stamps with feet* oooooohhhhh that's it, I've had it....*throws script onto the stage* forget it... forget about the act...let's get out of here...*waves with arms towards the end of the stage*" I look at Gonfindl and together we lift our shoulders before following Golradir off stage while the crowd applaudes, laughs and cheers.
"*sighes* it is passed midnight, those wizards sure take their time for this" Gonfindl notices while taking another piece of cake. I sit near the stage and gaze at the visitors. "They sure loved our little act..."
"maybe that is the reason why the wizards take their time..."
"No Gonfindl I don't think...*pauses and notices the wizards* oh? there they are... come we have to know who has won" Golradir notices before running towards the stage.
Meanwhile the wizards have taken their seats again and Frincass clears his troath "dear people of Brumelei and Eldrihir, we have come to a decision...The winner of this years contest is... *long pause* The village of Eldrihir!!!! for their originality and their performance...I congratulate you." He announces with a loud voice causing everybody of our village to cheer as Landin takes over the cup from the wizard. "I have to thank you all for the co-operation, and I specially thank the Fairy Queen for her contribution, for it were thanks to her kindness that we have won this cup. If she and her court didn't taught us how to sing... we sure would've lost this contest... once again... I thank you!!" Landin spoke with a rather raspy voice before taking a bow. Oleria then rings a gong and shouts "let the feast begin!!!" and by these words all guests began to dance and sing. However the Lindir of Brumelei left the meadow angry and full of vengeance. "*gazes at the departing magic couch* well they sure are bad losers..." Golradir notices.
"don't worry about it brother, by the way, nice performance..." Tvalarish noticed while stratching his wings. "I really rolled over the ground laughing" he added. Golradir gazed at his transformed brother and then smiled warmly " thanks brother..." he said before joining the cheering, feasting crowd. I gaze at the stars and mumble "we have won due to the fact that we all worked together, union sure makes a difference, I sure hope Valandil finds his beloved Illisse, I hope she's alive and well...." I sigh one more time and then join the feast as well happy that we have won, yet worried about the welfare of my best friends.
