Woes of the Dark Night Episode Three
and fate as normal human being. The Taviour may turn to be enemy of the land (the whole
court becomes scared).
Dalsmy: Is it not the Taviour’s destiny to save the land?
The Sage: (smiles again) Aye, my King. But the future is undecided. Fate determines all. The future can be changed by the slightest of action. The end is not as we see from now.
Dalsmy: (sighs) Take my orders. Tedder, prepare the army well, as neighbouring lands might want to take advantage of Dark night to attack us. Remton, I give you the control for the training of the Princes and Princess. We should prepare them for the future. Mity, control the royal guards to maintain peace in the palace and also in the land. Sage, you should start the preparations of all you
need to reveal the Split Eye.
All: The royal orders are received!!!
Dalsmy: Court dismissed. Mity, wait behind (the court members leave, as Mity stays behind. He
moves close to the King)
Mity: My King!
Dalsmy: Don’t be so formal with me when others are not here.
Mity: (laughs, as he hugs Dalsmy lightly) My friend, Dalsmy, we really are in a terrible period. Dalsmy: I am also bothered and scared. But Mity, I hope you listened well to what the Sage said. You know you have to keep the secret well. No one must know about it. And also, you should know what you are supposed to do for the land.
Mity: I know fully well, what to do.
(Outside, Ornah meets Saqil on the way)
Saqul: Ornal, I know you must be depressed.
Ornal: Why won’t I be? My post was given to a lady. How can a lady prepare the King’s children
better than I can?
Saqul: The King must think you have eyes on the throne. He thinks you want to use his children to control the throne. That’s why he gave the control to a lady who can’t possibly become a King.
Ornal: Did the King really discover my plans?
Saqul: (shocked) Are you really trying to…?
Ornal: Shut up! I have my plans, Remton is really on a hot seat.
(An Eagle staying at the window thinks out loud)
Eagle: Backbites start immediately, woes unto Lailand (it flies away)
(On the street of Lailand, Mity stops a man and his daughter) (Same Night)
Mity: Where are you off to, when I have declared curfew earlier?
Dawn: I need to see the King immediately.
Mity: (laughs) The King? You must be joking. Woes are really unto Lailand. If not, someone like you won’t be asking to see the King.
Dawn: Chief Guard, please, it is of great importance that I see the King tonight.
Mity: You want to go and assassinate His Highness, right? You can’t pass here if you don’t tell me what’s going on (looks at the girl) Oh, so you are Azinah’s father.
Azinah: (to Mity) Sir, my father and I have no ill mind towards the King. We only need to see him over my eyes that went blind this night.
Mity: (feels pity) Oh! You should go to the Sage, not His Highness.
Dawn: Chief Guard, you can’t understand what is going on. Just let us through.
Mity: (feels angry) If you try anything, I will show you the hell I’m made of.
Dawn: (he holds Azinah and pushes Mity away with this other hand) I must see the King. (Mity steps toward him, removes his sword and drives it into Dawn’s heart. Dawn dies immediately. Azinah quickly holds on to his father).
Azinah: (crying) Ah! Father, please, don’t leave me. Why did you kill my father?
Mity: (angrily) Guards, take this girl and lay her flat. I want to have her.
Azinah: (scared) But I am your son’s girlfriend and moreso I am a virgin.
Mity: (laughs) That makes it bett… (stops and realizes something) Wait, you said you are blind. How could you see now? How… (before he could
finish talking, a blue wind comes from the girl and blows away all the guards)
Azinah: (stands up angrily) I will kill all of you (she directs her eyes towards the guards. Blue
flames come from the eyes and strikes the guards, which kill them immediately) Chief Guard, the woe starts with you (she burns him too with her eyes’ flame)
To be continued....
