Act Eight

(The prince and princess return to Glentheniel to receive the crown and the throne. The kingdom is once again peaceful, but now, it has been almost a year since they last saw their faithful Immortals)

[Marc is standing by the window, when Axelia attempts to cheer him up. When all he does is frown back at her, she straightens herself and absorbs his solemn, grave expression.]

Axelia: Dear brother, won’t you smile?

Truly it has been a while,

It’s been almost 10 months now,

For you to be sad, I won’t allow.

Marc: Sister, you know why I despair,

They left us like they did not care,

Wandering around without a sign,

Never telling if joy they did find.

Axelia: I know brother it’s almost a year,

But when you say ‘them’ I know you mean ‘her’.

Marc: …Rose…

Axelia: I hear you speak her name at night,

Hoping for her to be all right.

Marc: I see her in my dreams,

But she’s gone when I’m awake

I see her in the starts that gleams,

And I’ll do anything it takes,

To bring her from there to here,

And make sure she is always near,

I’ll fight whatever keeps her from me,

But how can I fight what I can’t see?

Her eyes were starbursts of blue,

When I see them then I knew,

When she smiles I would remember,

And I wished she would be here forever.

Willow: There’s no need for fighting,

Our bond is everlasting,

Your Immortals are here to serve,

Marc, pursue the one you love.

Ashen: We live as mortals and we’ve found joy,

You’ve grown wise now, not a mere boy,

Your kingdom’s at peace, now you must be brave,

Seek for our Rose, true love must be saved.

Periwinkle: It took us a while to find each other,

Don’t be in doubt listen to my brothers.

Axelia: Our kingdom is safe, go seek your Rose,

Don’t let true love ever close.

Marc: Yes, my sister you are right,

Take care & farewell, I leave tonight.

(Marcus ventured across Great Plains and deep valleys for days and nights without rest, hoping to find his one and only Rose somewhere. When the wish was granted the Immortals were unwillingly separated to different parts of the world by the sheer force of the magic spirit’s power. Now, Marc has finally found his Rose and his heart is put at ease. Rose sits below a great willow tree surrounded by roses, longingly singing to herself of a life that once revolved around her Marcus.)

Rose: Just a smile on your face,

Brings me back to the place,

Where the two of us could be,

Could just be you and me,

And then we’d be free,

And forever there we’ll see,

Won’t you just let me say?

That I’ll always look your way,

Give me one day to see you,

And hope you’ll see me too,

Don’t look back at fear or pain,

I can hold you once again,

To help everything go away,

Will you help me find a day?

Where it could be you and me,

Forever there we’ll be.

Give me one day to hold you,

And tell you I need you too,

I won’t look at sadness or fear,

With you I’ll never shed a tear,

With you I’m free from other things,

And in my heart it’s joy you bring,

When they could just let it be,

Forever there we’ll be.

(Marc shows himself and Rose smiles as if she knew all along that her Marc was there. He sits beside her, under the shelter of the great willow, and hands her a single white rose.)

Marc: Hold me tightly, don’t let go,

I’ll make sure you’ll always know,

That I’m always there for you,

And I hope that you trust me too,

For when the seconds tick past,

Your smiling face will always last,

Beyond the days for sad, lost times,

Then your light will always shine.

I always hoped for you to see,

That I wanted for us to be,

Never apart, never afraid,

We’ll hold to the words we said,

And everything is but a dream,

A memory, or so it seems,

And when everything comes to pass,

Nothing but you will help me last.

Just give me one day to tell you,

You would always see me through,

And forever will be the care I feel,

With you all my dreams are real,

All the haze and misty days,

Will be clear for me to fly away,

To a place where everyone is free,

Forever there we’ll be.

Rose: Give me a day to touch you,

Hope that all you say is true,

That you’ll never leave my side,

Because you are my shining light,

And I will never think of evil days,

With me your memory always stays,

And other places we ought to see,

Forever there we’ll be.

Both: Another time will come for me,

And forever there we’ll be.

Marc: No other time is there but now,

To part with you I couldn’t see how?

Say no more of ‘ifs’ and ‘never’,

Here, with you I’ll stay forever.

Both: We’re one again, we’ll always be,

Together forever just you and me.

Here, forever we’ll always be,

Our love knows no boundary.
