(A landscape of true elegance is revealed to us. The magic of this realm is deeply interwoven into every fibre of reality. A young maiden lies in a crater in the ground. She has an almost avian look that extends to her base are soft snow white wings, with a slight green, shimmer to them, are attached. She appears to be semi-conscious....)

113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdwM8m8H7J
Protagonist: Where am I?
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUi4nHO7pyZ
Protagonist: (Looking around, taking everything in) W-Wow...
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRQ4UPrHl7
Protagonist: (Notices a reflective pool nearby)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQDjz85Nkx
(There is no more smoke around the unnatural crater. The light focuses on the pool)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdvI0kQL9Y
Protagonist: (walks over to the pool, a little unsteady, due to the unknown presence of the wings)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOB9cI9RDNo

113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnrjyoCMcU
Protagonist: (starts upon seeing the wings in the pool)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aMi00U4tw
Protagonist: (audible gasp) Good heavens! What sorcery is this? Thy back seems to have sprouted wings! (a little shocked but not terrified)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDrMF58iJF
(She tries to spread the wings out, to her delight the wings obey)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroiNY482Ry
(Stage direction: light brightens and focuses on the protagonist)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyet274m0QN
Protagonist: (Full of barely concealed glee and energy) The wings respond? What else might be done with thy graceful virtue?
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDsbyXsdA6
Protagonist: (pauses for a movement to calm herself down. Her efforts are in vain for she sights a bird)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pfvudaMII
Protagonist: Could I fly? I could help others better if I could....
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0q43EWhugo
(The protagonist, noticing a hill, begins to head towards it. Her movements are now more graceful and steady than before)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2ZnlGq6ls
(The protagonist is now on a higher part of the stage)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1l7tyseqgx
Protagonist: Should I leap into the boundless sky, entrusting thy fate to these splendid, alas, untested wings to allow me to soar, at the risk of thy fragile frame? Still ,I stand upon a mighty knoll, wings unfurled, a desire to soar, not for thyself, but to do good, beckons thy heart. Yet beneath this noble cause a whisper of caution cautions thee to consider the risk.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKZar2IyDg
(She pauses to contemplate. The music has stopped now)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDgkQZN82M
Protagonist: The earth, solid and unyielding, beckons me with its familiar embrace. While the sky with endless expands and possibilities, thy morality compels me leap.
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBgKB3YwSE
(Protagonist should appear ready to jump)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gyrLKtySx
Protagonist: The world calls, and I shalt answer it!
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBZMD1HjYN
(She begins to run towards the edge. The spotlight follows her. The wings are gleaming in the light)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEaP2RHIRl
(Before she can get to the edge, a deep, rich, baritone voice, with a rumbling quality, yells out)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxP5r3PMjg
Unknown: (franticly) STOP!
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrgbeNfZYn
(The protagonist does not hear)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uFULWDJyo

Protagonist: (Looking around for the source)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwaIg4m6Ou
(The lights dim back to normal, and the wings stop glowing)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjht3relB4
(In the dark part of the stage, a shape is visible, it is tall and strong looking, it wears a breastplate and a helm)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6DFsvQauW
(He emerges from the shadows, the breastplate has a dragon symbol on it, the helm's visor is the yawning maw of a dragon)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv3tnvgKKm
(The unknown armoured man approaches the protagonist, a long, lethal looking spear made of what looks like bone on his back)
113Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhE9rDk6DQP
