### Act 2, Scene 3: Till Death do us Part

- Setting: The marketplace of Ironforge at noon. The sun is shining, colors are happy and bright. Between [7] and [3] the background shows houses, a fountain - at a distance, signaling a larger open space.

The area is festively decorated, flowers and ribbons everywhere.

One of the spectators in the last row is holding his horse by its reins at 2nd rail [7].

door latches and locks

Quicksilver: "Goldeneyes! Wake up honey! Wake up!"

Goldeneyes (sleepy): "Whh… what? Quicksilver? What is it? *yaaaaaaawn*"

Quicksilver: "I have to leave."

Goldeneyes (sleepy): "Now? In the middle of the night?"

Quicksilver: "Someone blew the whistle. The keepers are after me. Greenfield is trying to stall them, but we don't have much time."

Goldeneyes (suddenly awake): "Please tell me that's a joke."

Quicksilver: "I wish it were."

Goldeneyes: (sobs): "Oh no! OH NO! I told you not to deal with the rebels, but … but you - you goddamn stubborn bastard … (starts crying)"

Quicksilver: "Shhhhh! Don't cry."

Goldeneyes (crying): "But when they get you, they will kill you!"

Quicksilver: "I won't let that happen, I promise. But I really have to go now."

Goldeneyes: "Go where?"

Quicksilver: "Camp Freedom. The secret base of the rebel underground."

Goldeneyes: "You are JOINING them?"

Quicksilver: "It's now or never."

Goldeneyes: "But I love you! You can't just leave me like that!"

Quicksilver: "I love you, too! But right now it's my only chance to survive. And I'll be back, I promise."

Goldeneyes: "What about Ironforge? Who is going to run the city while you're away?"

Quicksilver: "You are the princess! Have you forgotten that?"

Goldeneyes: "I can't do this without you!"

Quicksilver: "Oh yes, you can. You know a lot more about ruling this city than anybody else. And it will only be for a short time. Stormrunner has an excellent plan. You will see. The tyranny of the Keepers will be over very soon."

Greenfield (muffled): "I'm sorry, but these are the Lord's and the Lady's private rooms. I can not let you enter without permission!"

Ironwill (muffled): "I'm sorry, too, but your permission is irrelevant!"

Potami: "So many people, and everyone is wearing their finest for the big ceremony!"

Raindancer: "Look around for anybody wearing the Tree of Knowledge."

Potami: "I wonder what kind of dress Lady Goldeneyes is going to wear!"

Raindancer: "Forget the wedding! We must find Longleaf first!"

Potami: "But I've never seen a royal wedding before in my life! How about you stay here and keep searching, and I watch the ceremony? I'm sure it won't take long!"

Raindancer (sighs): "It's not like I'll be able to stop you anyway, right?"

Potami (laughs): "Damn straight! I'll be in the front. Be safe!"

Potami gives Raindancer a quick kiss on the cheek

Raindancer: "Be safe? Why wouldn't I? Oh, whatever."

MUS-2302 FADE

Whisperwind: "My dearest Goldeneyes. Many may believe that it was a fairytale the way we came together. And of course they are right. It is always a fairytale the way two people come together and decide to share life. Yes indeed you are the Princess of Ironforge, but this cannot separate you from which you also represent. You are built by your heritage and your role, which makes you the person you are today. Ripe and ready for the tasks you have chosen in your life, we see you as a revelation of sincerity and diligence. And during the time we have known each other I have constantly been thinking of this: Are we really meant for each other, then fate will surely arrange it all to the best."

SND-2302 - Applause 2

Greenfield: "The promises made today and the ties that are bound here will greatly strengthen your union; they will cross the years and lives of each soul's growth. Do you still seek to enter this ceremony?"

Goldeneyes and Whisperwind: "Yes, we seek to enter."

Greenfield: "Whisperwind, will you cause her pain?"

Whisperwind: "I may."

Greenfield: "Is that your intent?"

Whisperwind: "No."

Greenfield: "Goldeneyes, will you cause him pain?"

Goldeneyes: "I may."

Greenfield: "Is that your intent?"

Goldeneyes: "No."

Greenfield: "Will both of you share each other's pain and seek to ease it?"

Goldeneyes and Whisperwind: "Yes, we will."

Greenfield: "Above you are the stars, below you are the stones. As time passes, remember: Like the stone your love should be firm, like the stars your love should be constant. Let the strength of your wills bind you together. You may now kiss."

Greenfield stands back
