Synopsis[edit | edit source]
With twelve days passing, Rolare has yet to perform. People keep showing up, which is perhaps a testament to his musical capabilities. The only reason seats were filling up was thanks to Cara’s new act, which had been extended to twenty minutes. On the other hand, Andex the [Knife Thrower] had stormed off. Joeired and Cara talk about him in the Stitch-Man’s office, while he is re-stitching his legs. Dismissing Andex as “generic.” Joeired reveals that he finds Cara to be fascinating, as she has music no one has ever heard of, and knows how to perform. However, he lambastes that the [Singer] lacks the ability to be outrageous. He cites Rolare and Barelle the [Bard] as personalities and names. Cara suggests putting on plays, but Joeired refuses, claiming that the people in Menorome desire flashy, vibrant things. The [Singer] pushes though, reciting a few lines from The Tempest. Joeired is impressed, but insists on focusing on Cara’s singing. She is crestfallen, but realizes that Joeired is looking for a star.
Afterwards, Cara is walking the streets of Menorome in contemplation. She looks at song crystals, but is disappointed to find that they are poor at recording sounds. Advanced effects such as skipping ahead or even lasting longer would require a gifted [Mage].
