Synopsis[edit | edit source]
Cara spends her days doing the same routine: performing at the Synphasia, meeting with Seraphel, then hanging out with Rolare and Yoitha. The [Singer] has become the Synphasia’s second-best act thanks to her new [Uplifting Performance] Skill, which literally revitalizes the audience. On the other hand, Yoitha has become more depressed and starts thinking of leaving, as the theatre’s regular attendees have started avoiding coming to any performances featuring the Dwarf’s routine. The other performers try to convince Yoitha to stay, mostly because her repairs are the only thing keeping the Synphasia standing. Cara tries helping her find a new routine, starting with acting lessons. She teaches Yoitha Macbeth’s dagger speech, but the Dwarf has a hard time pretending to be someone else. Cara suggests imagining she’s guilty. In the middle of her speech, Yoitha begins improvising her lines to alter the speech about her as a [Smith], pulling raw emotion from her traumatic past where a forge accident in Dwarfhome “ruined a generation of us.” Yoitha’s performance leaves the watching theatre members speechless, but she is emotionally shaken afterward, as her guilt was too real. Cara darkly notes that Yoitha definitely needed to find something to do, as based on her emotional reaction, she can never go back to smithing.
