COMING UP TO SPEED-----

 OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAgain, Fiorella is afraid, afraid that our world will come apart, maybe like probably other wolds in the universe have done. Fio understands that, but doesn't comprehend why certain groups are so intent on killing off everyone who doesn't look like them or speak their language.

Then there would be a pause as he fetched Moira from the wings so she could thank everyone involved and say a fewwords about the theater guild.

He checked the ring in his pocket.

That's when he'd strike.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
