As Alizeh’s act goes on, Lord Whitburn demonstrates a mastery of the arts of impatience. Tapping his foot. Strumming his fingers. Rolling his eyes. But once the act begins in earnest, he watches with interest.<br/><br/>Alizeh concludes her act to enthusiastic applause, though the audience remains in their seats. Until, that is, the two elf women rise. The High Court follows, then the Shadow Court, then the audience at large. it is the second standing ovation of the night.<br/><br/>Amidst the applause, coming from the rear of the gallery, is a cry of “That was not proper Schrmef!” But it is quickly drowned out and ignored.<br/><br/>When the applause recedes, Wallen Baird again takes the stage. “I once tried my hand at reciting poetry. After having almost every object in the tavern thrown at me, I decided it was time for a career change. Misty Midnight, my friends. Remember her name! Contemplation of all that is divine, related by a divine body. Where, other than the Eye, can you find such majesty? Be sure to book well in advance for her next show. And now, allow me to introduce another of the evening's rookie performers!”<br/><br/><hr/><br/><strong>DM’s Notes</strong><br/>Another fine act. Thanks, Red!
