Elf Life

Airek becomes more frazzled as Glynhial explains it all to him.

AIREK:

Save the world? Who says the world needs saving?

GLYNHIAL:

I do.

AIREK:

But -- from what?

GLYNHIAL:

Details, details.

All of this is stressing Airek out.

GLYNHIAL:

All that's important right now is that the job needs to be done. And it falls to Glynhial to do it. Poor Baughb is simply in over his head. Leave the cosmic work to the faerie, I told him. You worry about raising our new army.

AIREK:

Army?

A few elves study a poster on a wall. It features Baughb wearing an Uncle Sam costume.

POSTER:

BAUGHB WANTS YOU FOR THE ELVEN ARMY

BOY:

Are you going to be a soldier, daddy?

DADDY:

Er -- I --

WISEGUY ELF:

It's nothing. Ol' boy's just nostalgic. Easy paycheck says I!
