He’s at the bar again and knows nothing will come out of something. The lights are old and incandescent with tobacco smoke as the backdrop. The town is known for its music scene, so the bar is always stocked with regulars and visiting fans alike. He loves music. He plays the guitar well and when he gets to collaborate with other musicians, time slips from one band to the next, and the next, and the next. When gigs are over and shows are done, he tries to find something new before that itch starts clawing from the inside.

“Marigold, there you are.” Came a warm, rumbling laugh. Blue had never heard this voice before and waited for Mehr to engage first. Mehr nodded and signed to the man before him, a ghost of a smile tugged against the corner of his lips. “T’xulhe. Good evening.” Mehr signed and then turned to the Seeker’s companion with an imperceptible expression. Blue sensed the slightest brush of Mehr’s tail against him and wished he was able to peek at who the strangers were. “What, no greeting for me azizam?” Came another voice, one far deeper than the first. He sighed dramatically and from the sounds of it, was slapped on the arm by the first man. “Be nice, dragi.” Though it was a warning, it sounded playful in its demands. “I am always nice.” The second man sighed before setting his attention back to Mehr.

Risus fanned the deck of cards out in front of him. With a flick of his wrist, he collapsed the deck back into his palm. Faster than the eyes around him, he flicked the front of the deck with his other hand, and it vanished without a trace. Another flick, and the card the audience member had selected reappeared. A child in the audience let out a loud, blubbering sob, overpowering any murmurs of approval or amazement that could, theoretically at least, have been heard from the audience. The Garlean man played it off, some comment about how the child was just too stunned by the magic to resist crying out...but the crowd dispersed all the same. His shoulders slumped when everybody was out of sight, wondering again why he even bothered with street shows. If he'd learned anything during his years in Kugane, it was that his stage magic paled in comparison to almost anything that an actual magic practitioner could pull off. Nearly seven years and the best he could muster was a handful of vaguely curious bystanders. Something needs to change, he mused. But what?

5. Plateau
First, the Song goes quiet and then their people go mad from the silence. They lament and grieve but it is not enough to bring the harmonies of Life back to them. Second, the Rot crawls beneath the earth, clutching at the roots until no Life can be sustained. It flows against the stream, swims against the current until sludge mars the crystal clear waters. Third, the Promise is broken, snapped and fragmented until there is no one left to remember them. Their bodies decay, their hearts twisted from distrust and agony. It is no longer safe in their Paradise. Ceaseless is their hopes and prayers to some day return.
