Here's our Shakespearian tragedy!
Boldly throughout I run- Never letting the end of all draw near For though I thought that mine was a noble pursuit All fell away in the time of war Of love and hate. ~Diesel 11
Act I: (Toz enters room) Toz: Hear ye, hear ye! Let the king's wisemen know that though art fired! (TGC and Frank are shocked) TGC: But why in bloody hell?!

(Frank is angered) Frank: What is this nonsense thou spouts! I have been loyal and true to his royal highness for many a year, and this is the thanks I am given! Who made this decision, you lumpish dog-hearted barnacle! (If anyone needs a shakespearian insult, this should help: www.pangloss.com/seidel/shake_rule.html )

(to TGC)
Frank: I say to thee, what is this utter nonsense? If I did not know better, I'd say this be some plot to a farcical scheme.
TGC: Thou watches too many stage plays; this not be some writer's plot, this be real life!

ENTER TOZ:
TOZ: My god, thou hast fallen for my joke, I surmise. FRANK: Thou spleeny common-kissing hedge-pig! Why must you act this way, you churlish knave? TOZ: Verily, I thought it would amuse. TGC: And verily you were mistaken.
ENTER TUG:
TUG: Hold fast, sure steed! I bring news of import! Our old noble friend, Duke of Randow Port, Has fallen under an old hag's dark spell, And it falls to us to render him well. TOZ: Oh, great calamity! Oh, unfortunate woe! FRANK: Shut thy pie hole. TUG: Come, come, my dear friends, I bring horses for all. D11 shall met us at the Duke's hall.
EXT ALL

(Enter all, to an old man's shop. Vials and books line the walls)
Frank: We have heard of thee, oh, wise MacDermont. The Duke of Randow has fallen ill due to a hag's spell. Thou art the only one we know of who could possibly posses the knowledge to help us.
MacDermont: I know this spell of which you speak, complete my quest, for it will from the spell release. Randow will survive, but the hag will cease to thrive.
Toz: Oh thank you, great and wise MacDermont. What is it though requests?
MacDermont: To begin my trial by fire, you must go to Northern shire. Find the rock, which stands out from the lot, and from there, find the gift of carrot.
TGC: The Gift of Carrot? What pray tell is that we must find?
MacDermont: Go now! it is fate! This, the first quest of twenty eight!

EXIT ALL BUT MACDERMONT
MACDERMONT: Woe, for I am sworn an oath To this hag, who healed my tooth Never to harm that old hag's head I'll send them off on a goose chase instead! My ma said "honesty is the best" But sometimes you need to lie to pay of thy debt. So, god, forgive me, for I've done you wrong, But I think you'll find this time it was right all along.

(Enter Frank, Toz, TGC, and Tug. They are coming too an Inn)
Frank: We must away as soon as possible. For time is of the essence. If the good Randow is to survive, we must make our way to the Northern Shire.
Toz: Then why, pray tell, did we come here first.
Frank: Our baggage! It is a long trip to the Northern Shire, so we must pack our things for the trip ahead. Now, shall all of us go get our clothes?
TGC: Aye; but before we go to the Northern Shire, I must go get a blessing from the good friar.
(Exit TGC)
Toz: And I must go to my house near the town spire; from there, I will get a torch, so at night, we will have fire.
(Exit Toz)
Tug: And I shall go and pack my lyre. We must away, before we tire. I shall run fast, and may perspire. Oh, and I must go hear the news from the town crier.
(Exit Tug)
Frank: Ah, good. Now then, we must prepare for our trip to the Northern friar, and then... no wait, I mean the Northern spire. Ugh, Tug's gone to hear the town lyre and retrieve his good crier... and TGC has gone to perspire and get a blessing from the pyre. Agghh!! Curse these words that have befallen me! I am jumbled, my mind is a gyre! (Screams in frustration; hits head against wall)

Oh dear... I'll give it another go; perhaps we can pick up from this instead:
(ENTER common folk, who see Frank banging his head against the wall)
Man 1: What matter of man tries to break down a wall with his head?
Man 2: the matter of man who is trying to unjumble his head, of course
Man 3: What sort of knave are you; his head won't bring down that wall.
Man 1: No, perhaps not. But either head or wall will have a hole in it.
Man 2: Give it a rest sirs; he only tries to straighten out what he was thinking.
(Frank takes back the stage)
Frank: Ugh; now then, since we have 28 quests to perform, I wonder if we must procure D-11 assistance before we proceed to the Northern Shire... yes! That is it!

(We now focus on other half of stage. We see D-11 sitting on a throne. He is surrounded by angry villagers)
Villager one- we will not stand for thy tyranny any longer!
Villager two- your reign ends here, demon!
Villager three- burn the witch!
(All look at three)
Villager two- no, you fool; the witch hunt was a fortnight ago, this is a monarchy overthrow.
Villager three- oh, sorry
(Diesel 11 is carried off the stage by the villagers; the sound of him being thrown is heard)
Diesel 11- thou art swine! When I go and find my friend and ally, the Duke of Randow, thou will suffer most deeadfully for this!
(Exit Diesel 11, towards Duke of Randow's home)
(Back to Frank)
Frank- Oh, when will my friends return? We must begin our quest to save the Duke of Randow!

Now for a bloody sing-along!!
Trapped in purgatory A lifeless object, alive Awaiting reprisal Death will be their acquiescence
Sky is turning red Return to power draws near Fall unto me, the sky's crimson tears Abolish the rules made of stone
Pierced from below, souls of my treacherous past Betrayed by many, now ornaments drip from above
Awaiting the hour of reprisal Your times slips away
Raining blood From a lascerated sky Bleeding its horror Creating my structure Now I shall REIGN IN BLOOD!!

Frank- I know not what just happened, but if I am to suffer anymore of this, I shall go straight home and to my bed! Now, where are my friends, for they should have returned by now
ENTER Toz and Tug
Frank- Ah, there you are my good fellows; what kept thee so long?

Toz: Thy poor prose kept us from nearing. Frank: Woe to any playwright who must write of our adventures in the future! Now let us leave the four walls of this inn. The walls have eyes, and that fourth one doth look decidedly shifty.

Scene change; a grassy field in the northern Shire. ENTER Frank, D-11, Tug, Toz and TGC.

Toz- To find the gift of carrot. What that is I know not.
Enter three townsfolk
Townsperson one: I will not give thee my emeralds unless you give me a large quantity of decaying flesh.
Townsperson two: Why would any man desire that, let alone the preacher himself?
Townsperson 3: Some questions are best left unanswered, my friend.
Frank: Excuse me, but have you ever heard of the "gift of carrot?"
Townsperson 1: Why yes. It is the property of a Mr Percival Silver, but he is a madman and a curse falls upon all who hold the gift of carrot. It was created by the devil himself.

(The heroes are shocked)
Frank: But how is this? For a wise elder told us of the gift of carrot, and to free a cursed noble, retrieving it is the first step of 28

Townsperson 1: Mayhap the curse was meant to be.
Townsperson 3: Forsooth, you can not fight fate.
Frank: But he is my lord! It is my duty.
Toz: I do not wish to be cursed. You art on thy on.
D11, TUG, AND TGC: Aye.
EXIT Toz, Tug, D11 and TGC.

(Frank thinks)
Frank: Something smells worse than the fisherman's catch this day. Wise MacDermont said the gift of carrot was from a rock, and yet these townsfolk say it is in possession. I refuse to go on alone, for this quest reeks of deception!
(Exit Frank; ENTER all, in town)
Toz: Frank, you abandoned the quest?
Frank: Yes, for this quest is but a dirty trick; MacDermont spoke of the carrot being on a rock, not in possession. He played us for fools.
(ALL angered
TGC: the lying swine... He's got a lot to answer for!
(Exit ALL to confront MacDermont)
