THE RIND KING ACT ONE: Scene 2
In the second scene, the focus shifts North where Elara, the Elf Queen, is surrounded by crystals, lucky charms, and a scrying bowl, peering anxiously into a teacup. As she spirals over the dark future, her court fool, Jingo, looks on with utter disdain, trying to ground her panic in reality.
In this Episode:
· Elara sings anxiously of the omens in her tea leaves, terrified that the King's legions and "iron fist" will seize the pass.
· Jingo counters with dry logic, dismissing the threat by noting that the King's hands "are rather small to seize the day".
· The crystal warns Elara of the Muskrat's wicked craft, leading to a glaring malapropism where she fears a "phallus" too large to defend.
· Jingo cringes at the slip-up and corrects her to "phalanx," predicting that the amassed forces will hit a wall and fall when the forest "whispers its doubt to all".
Featured Songs: "THE OMENS" – A comedic duet contrasting Elara's cries of "The horror! The horror!" with Jingo's insistence that "the fates have no say when the facts have been said".
A serialized production from M.R. Furlong and Hush! CAUTION. Echoland Press.
