[VOICES ECHO INDICATING LOCATION IN TUNNELS]

ARUN

”– turned from the bridegroom’s door.

 

He went like one that hath been stunned,

And is of sense forlorn:

A sadder and a wiser man,

He rose the morrow morn.”¹

[EXHALE OF COMPLETION, ACCOMPANIED BY POLITE CLAPPING]

LAVERNE

Thank you, Arun. That was lovely.

CELIA

Hmmm.

ARUN

E-Everything alright, Celia? Not a fan of Coleridge?

UNNAMED

We have heard it a few times now.

ARUN

Yeah… well… the library is a touch limited down here.

LAVERNE

[Playfully] You want to ask them to bring back something to read from up top? Like that ‘magazine’?

[DISCOMFITED NOISES AS THEY REMEMBER THE ‘MAGAZINE’]

CELIA

[Anxious] No, it’s fine. I like the poem. I’m just… worried.

UNNAMED

They haven’t been gone long.

ARUN

You know the path that they walk. No harm can come to them.

CELIA

I know, I just… I…

LAVERNE

What is it?

CELIA

I keep hearing things. Something’s going on up there. And I don’t like it.

UNNAMED

I’ve heard it too. The city’s excited about something.

LAVERNE

Not just up there…

ARUN

Laverne?

LAVERNE

I, uh, I got a bit too close to the stairs yesterday.

[ANXIOUS NOISES]

UNNAMED

[Sharply] Seriously? Did they see you?

LAVERNE

No. But… there were more watchers.

CELIA

What do you mean ‘more’? There’s two. One each side.

LAVERNE

Not anymore. I didn’t get a good look, but… there must have been about four or five.

UNNAMED

You think something’s happening?

CELIA

I don’t like it!

ARUN

Have faith! The prophets shall protect us.

UNNAMED

Like they protected Song and Christopher?

ARUN

That was our fault!

UNNAMED

Uh-huh!

ARUN

We became arrogant, attracted attention. They’re the Chosen, they’re not all-powerful.

CELIA

Whatever. I still don’t like it, okay? I’m worried! Something’s… coming. Something big. And I doubt it’s friendly.

LAVERNE

Look at it this way. The world’s already ended… how much worse can it be?
