Subject: Ezella & Shane

Ezella and Shane

"Come here ya lil' wench"
"Oh no Ian you ruthless cad
I said dodging his grasp
"Are ye goin' to sing fur us tonight Ezella?"
"Aye and I'm going to sing so sweetly
to woo ye all to yer knees.
But fur now I must go and get purdy fur ye".
Smiling I ran quickly from the noisy
merriment and into my private quarters.
Whew! what a day already!

Where is that lad?
"Shane! Shane are ye in here?"
No answer
Darn I hope he didn't meet
with misfortunate happenstance.
For that boy of mine is always out and about
I suppose a typical street urchin.

"Shane! come out now Mama's worried"
I was startled when I heard....music?
In the corner lo and behold little
Shane sat at the piano
his tiny fingers played those keys?
"Shane?" I could barely speak
"Where did you learn that?"
His blue eyes sparkled at the joy
of this secret to be told..
"Mama I was passing that big building
with all the statues
You know
where the fat ladies sing.............
I went inside.
A man was playing one of these piano's
and one of those fat ladies was singing
only not as good as you Mama.

"Sure dear but go on"

"So I went in and sat on the stage
I clapped really loud when they finished
They liked that.
Get fat Mommy
because
I'm going to make songs
for you to sing"

"Did the man playing the piano teach you this?"
"Well......no it was the other man....."
"Other?"
"Yes, he's teaching me this"

"How long now dear?
His eyes refused to meet mine

"I don't know"

"Okay....what was I doing the day you went there?
think.."
His little face crunched up in thought

"You went with Janora to buy yards of silk"

Yards of silk, yards of silk.....lets see that was
a little over a fortnight."
TWO WEEKS!
I couldn't learn what that lad just played in two
YEARS!
My knees grew weak and the room began to spin.
Someone has taken Shane under their wing, why?
Is it not obvious why.
A joy began to surface in me
and a dread
Nicoli can not know of this.

"Who is this man?"
You must take me to see this man
Tomorrow first thing"

*******

Shane bounds from the piano stool.
"You know what I saw today Mama!"
Running to the table he picks up something
large and rather flat
about the size of his small hand.

"Now what prey tell my dear is that?"

'Tis a scale Mama I took it from the head of the dragon
slain by Dragzfuth when they paraded the town.
I'm going to be a knight Mama brave and strong
and I'M GOING TO KILL DRAGONS!!!!!

"Yeah you will but what of making songs
for me to sing.
If I go to the trouble
to get fat my child
I SHALL SING"

"I'm going to do both Mama
I'm going to kill dragons and make songs.
KILL DRAGONS AND MAKE SONGS!!!!
KILL DRAGONS AND MAKE SONGS!!!!!

Okay, okay I hear you.

WHAT!!!!

I HEAR YOU!!!!
I HEAR YOU!!!!

"Why don't you show me more of that piano
stuff while I get ready to sing tonight okay?....

*******

Oh Nickoli Nickoli what a thorn you be in my side.
Sigh. I was so nieve to fall for your lies
So handsome and so charming you was
Marry me you said
We'll live happily and quietly
but alas you found out I could sing
so we did shows
and you got greedy
told me to flirt and tease
it would get us more gold
then came the wenching (prostitution - no such word as
wenching)

and then you beat me when I refuse to
sing and dance just so.
How old am I now......
think.....Shane is seven
I was eighteen,.......
I'm .....aagghh
old enough to make it alone.
For some time now I've thoughts
of leaving Nickoli......
he thinks Shane is his son....
hahahaha ahhh........ merriment in that one
I was a very young lass
when that enchantment overcame me
I told no one
besides Nickoli already had asked my hand.
So what was I doing that day?
Well can not a girl have an
exuberant roll in the hay
once twice maybe three times?
HAHAHAHAHA

"They're ready Ezella....." (John, the bartender)

IT'S SHOW TIME!!!!!
