Han Mi:
Jakob Jansson and his unit, the Cascadian Hellhounds, pursued the little fairy relentlessly as she fled blindly and aimlessly, lost in an alien, human world, until at last, cornered and wounded, she gave up.
Fairy:
This is how my story ends
Without warning, without sense
So this is how my story ends
Nothing solved just all loose ends
Without love, without a friend
All alone out here at worlds end
So this is how my story ends
No,one mourns me when im dead
Theres no eulogies instead
It cold and mean with no tears shed
So this is how my story ends
With no clever last words said
Without love, without a friend
All alone out here at worlds end
Jane:
Take my hand and when you run, we’ll run together
Take my hand and when you go, we’ll go down together
Take me hand and when we hide, we’ll hide together
Take my hand if you fall, we’ll fall down together
The race we run is frightening, and at our backs they’re biting
The hellhounds hunt and never slow
The race we run is frightening, and for our lives we’re fighting
All along the blood stained road
The race we run is frightening, dizzying and blinding
The grief that pulls us down below
The race we run is frightening, And guns that flash like lightening
So hold on tight and dont let go
Fairy:
Why have you come the men with guns are hunting in a race of death
Jane:
I’ve come to find the fairies from poor avalon that might be left
Others of your kind wait in a city that lies days away
And if i die it will not be before i get you there and safe
Fairy:
I’m tired and despair my race is run i wish to lay and die
Jane:
I’ve felt like that and run that race once upon another time
And once upon that time another saved me who i cannot pay
But now i can atone and i’m prepared to die to keep you safe
Jakob:
The hellhounds come a riding
We bite like lightening and
The hellhound come a riding
The hellhounds come a riding
The sinners crying for
The hellhounds come a riding
Jane:
The race we run is frightening, and at our backs they’re biting
The hellhounds hunt and never slow
The race we run is frightening, and for our lives we’re fighting
All along the blood stained road
The race we run is frightening, dizzying and blinding
The grief that pulls us down below
The race we run is frightening, And guns that flash like lightening
So hold on tight and dont let go
Han Mi:
The tech company Ablegeist held yearly parties that were the darling of the upper class business and social world for the city of Morefold. This year they had renovated a large mansion and there the rich and famous from across the continent had come to drink, network, and gossip, unaware they were straight in the path of jane, the fairy and the deadly unit hot on their trail.
Jane:
The race we run is frightening, and at our backs they’re biting
The hellhounds hunt and never slow
The race we run is frightening, and for our lives we’re fighting
All along the blood stained road
The race we run is frightening, dizzying and blinding
The grief that pulls us down below
The race we run is frightening, And guns that flash like lightening
So hold on tight and dont let go
Han Mi:
They smashed through the mansion, Jane and the little fairy desperately fleeing, knocking over everything in their way and the unit blasted their way through the party, destroying everything around them.
They fled into the cellar and fortunately just after they closed the door, an old man leaned casually against it and shrugged when Jakob appeared moments later and asked which way they had gone.
.
Jane and the Fairy hide from Jakob. Fortunately Jakob’s unit didn’t think to check the cellar
Jakob:
Check the cellar!
Han:
Wait... what? Jakob’s unit, having lost Jane, leaves the party (Obnoxious noise begins)
Jakob:
I bet my left nut they’re in the cellar. I can feel it. Come on, downstairs. Weapons up.
Han:
They don’t go down to the cellar
Jakob:
Watch your step. Stay alert
Han:
What’s that sound?
Raven:
The narrative’s tearing
Lloyd:
You need to stop. It’s not working. You’re going to break the narrative. You can’t always just strong arm your way through.
Jakob:
I’ve got two heat signatures, southwest corner.
Han:
Golly darn it, what do i do?
Lloyd:
You have a problem. The narrative does not want Jane safe. Finesse. Finesse.
Han:
With the men approaching, Jane spies a trapdoor leading to ancient tunnels beneath the mansion.
Lloyd:
Really? Tunnels again?
Han:
Hush. Im under pressure and i cant think of anything else. Jane and the fairy quickly throw open the trapdoor and scramble down.
Lloyd:
We did tunnels last time
Raven:
The dwarves.
Lloyd:
The dwarves?
Raven:
The dwarves are interesting. If Jane heads to the dwarves, the narrative will keep her safe until at least then, because it’s an interesting destination. You’re doing fine.
Han:
Thanks. What if Jane doesn't go to the dwarves?
Lloyd:
All right. Not bad. Test it out and see if you can’t nudge her there.
Han:
The tunnels under the mansion head off in a maze of directions. With no time to think, on a whim, Jane chooses a series of tunnels leading ever down, down...
Raven:
Down past the party and the countryside of the waking lands
Han:
Oh, that’s nice. Down past the party and the countryside of the waking lands, towards the dwarves far below.
Cama’s attempt to commune with higher beings failed; she only found Decadent Dottie. Together they roamed, indulging in
dangerous forms of psycho-neural self-exploration which Cama hoped would present the key to her people’s further evolution. It only led to her destroying her people so that one of their pets could evolve. She sat in her former civilization's rubble and listened to Paul Shapera....more

This is a great adaptation of Arthuriana and a brilliant narrative album. I love how the queerness of the characters is handled as an integral part of the narrative and plot development without it being the end all be all of the characters themselves. my boy Gawain deserved better though maritarvaniti
