Title: Stonegate: The Play Part II
Author: Isk
(continued from book I) Act II Scene I
Aleph, Analeiza, Kronos, Talon Skyfire, the Narrator and the Messenger are in the throne room. There is an abandoned game of chess beside the throne.
Narrator: to the audience This is just like in my dream. Messenger: All hear and lament the loss at Stonegate. One hundred soldiers pushed through the double gates of that forsaken keep only to be met by continuous mage fire. The messenger walks from one side of the stage to the other while waving his fans frantically Riders fell from their horses so that those in the back rows could not push through. falls to the ground to illustrate this Each man was so eager to fight that none would retreat causing the Loyalist and his lord the Regent’s allies to be pinned between the riderless mounts in front and their colleagues from behind. Wraps his arms around himself and flutters his fans
Analeiza faints and Kronos kneels to hold her hand
Narrator: to the audience in song A horrific blunder for the Regent. But did the lord survive as my dream predicted? Or will he leave us afflicted with this worry that we fee? I can not express my sorrow for the shadows of tomorrow nor can I hide my quite oppressive fear. The Regency had started but a couple months ago.. And now it’s hit a quick and early low. A chance to turn the tide and bring Virtue to the land has resulted in the breaking of our hand. And from here it won’t bet getter only worse... Messenger: The slaughter was great sways his fans around as he runs from side to side and the losses to the enemy were minimal. Vile Moonlgow has defeated us but our lord has survived. Even now he makes his way to the tower. Narrator: He is nearly on the scene actually. Kronos: I hear our Regent’s heavy steps. He ascends the stairs and is nearly here Ohh how my heart goes out to him. We have all been doomed. Aleph: Have heart and stand Kronos. Your best friend is here.
Enters Dayel Stormcrow dazed and covered in blood. He goes to slowly sit on his throne as everyone gazes at him besides Analeiza who is still passed out
Kronos: We are all here for you Dayel. Talon: Come Cyrus, lets give the loyalists their space. Narrator: to the audience This is highly inconvenient. We are on the last scene and I must go... I suppose Dayel will wrap up this play when he decides to speak. *to Talon* Coming my lord!
Talon and Cyrus the Narrator leave the throne room. Aleph places his hand on Dayel’s shoulder
Aleph: This is not the end of the world my friend.
There is an awkward silence
Kronos: Speak to us brother or have you been made mute by one of GreyPawn’s sinister spells? Dayel: I have failed. It was horrible... fate has delivered us a blow from which we can not recover. Never again will there be such numerous armies fielded against each other. Never again will allies trust us to lead them. I am cruel fate’s play thing destined to resign my post. My brother, I can not continue with a heart so stricken with grief. My generals are dead and my spirit is heavy. All that I have now are the virtues. I am sorry, I feel my tears sting the cuts on my cheek. Such a horrible loss.
Dayel covers his face and everyone leaves him alone.
Act II Scene II
Analeiza slowly wakes up to find herself alone with Dayel who is sleeping
Analeiza: with a lamenting song, half arched to look at Dayel while she flutters her fan to her face to keep herself from fainting music is played in background Nothing left to see, nothing left to do. I can feel his shame... the everlasting torture of having lost. Bright colors leave my shining face. drops orange mask to put on pale white one I can not help but share in my lord’s disgrace. Will this be the end? The final chapter of this sad lot. This one night will not be forgot. People will speak of this and Dayel will be blamed my lord’s defamed. I can feel his shame... the everlasting torture of having lost. Bright colors leave my shining face. Flutters her fan and lowers herself to the ground, covering her face with her fan
