typical piece that is often performed by the graduating classes. I once played the prince ..."
Lórellin: "I saw you play, it was wonderful!"
Kai: "I know."
Gil speaks to himself: "Imagination is also an education."
Kai: "All right, then keep rehearsing."
He disappears in the basement.
Gil sits down next to Lórellin on the sofa, exhausted: "Tell me, what have you been drawing all this time?"Lórellin stops her on the wrist: "No, don't. That's nothing important."
Gil: "If it's not important, you can show me."
Lórellin: "It's just scribbles!"
Gil: "Come on, let me see ..."
Slowly she lets go of Gil's arm and Gil turns a page: “That can't be true!”, She jumps up in shock: “Inu come here quickly, you won't believe that! Lórellin, do you know what that is ?! is Tengwar !! This is Elvish script ... Where did you get that from? "
Lórellin: "From mom."
Gil: "Right, from Elynin ... did she teach you?"
Lórellin: "Not exactly. I often secretly watched her write these characters and read them to her. And from time to time I got better and better at it ... Here look, I translated your passages. I thought I know that you can read it like mom. "
She expresses Lórellin out of sheer emotion: "God, that's so nice of you! Wasn't Inu?"
No reaction
"Inu?"
She is still standing in the living room and looking towards the front door.Lórellin asks Gil carefully: "What has she got?"
"Oh nothing ... Sorry, I have to speak to you for a moment alone. You don't really like the unfamiliar surroundings."
She gets up and pulls Inu with her into the kitchen, which is right next to the living room in the hall.
She quickly closes the kitchen door and snaps Inu vigorously on the forehead, which shakes Inu awake again: "It's enough! He's not the right one for you!"
Inu: "Excuse me! But he irritates me. His heart beats so loudly that it concerns me."
Gil: "I am also concerned with a lot! So collect yourself again ... Ok, Lórellin was so nice and translated our texts into Tengwar, thank you for that."
"Of course I will!" Inu knocks out and goes back into the living room.
Gil shakes his head at Inu's behavior and hears Inu thanking Lórellin: "Oh thank you Lórellin! How did you learn Tengwar?"
"INU !!!" it echoes loudly from the kitchen. She crouches on the sofa: "Did I say the wrong thing?"Hours later it's already dark outside.
Lórellin: "I should go slowly. Hey, tomorrow we have a little rehearsal ... Well, first we want to see who still needs to be cast. So the theater group has no lessons tomorrow!"
Inu: "Does that affect us too?"
"Of course!", She replies: "After all, you are the main characters."
Gil: "Well that makes it practical!"
Lórellin goes into the hallway and puts on her street shoes: "Ok, we'll see you tomorrow! Greet Kai for me." Gil and Inu accompanied them to the door: Let's do it! "
After putting on her shoes, she opens the door and shortly afterwards disappears behind a cone of light from a lantern in the night.
Inu waves a little into the dark: "Fine, I'll go to bed."
Gil: "Yes, do that! I just tidy up here and then come after."
Inu disappears on the first floor and Gil carries a couple of glasses into the kitchen. She washes the three glasses and reaches for a tea towel.After a few turns of a glass, she puts down the towel and the glass and disappears into the cellar.

"Kai? Are you here?"
She hears something hammering and scratching in a basement room. The door of the room is ajar. Gil creeps up quietly and looks through. She sees Kai in blue work trousers wiggling back and forth and hammering something and polishing a wooden object. With all the movements that Kai makes, she can occasionally recognize something if he goes too far to the side. She sees a graceful outstretched wooden arm on one side and embellishments on the other.
"Very good!" Kai says to himself: "Perfect! I have perfectly reflected your grace!"
KNOCK KNOCK
Kai is frightened and quickly covers his work of art with a white cloth: "Yes please ?!"
Gil sticks her head in the door: "May I disturb you for a moment?"
Kai: "Of course, come in!"
Gil consciously closes the door behind him. Kai cleans his carpentry tools as a distraction: "Well ?!What brings you to me? "
Gil: "I just wanted to see how you are."
Kai: "As you can see, I'm fine. And how are you? Has Lórellin left?"
Gil reacts with amusement: "Hmm, I'm fine and Lórellin has been gone a long time."
Kai: "What? She's gone already?"
"After all, it's after 11 p.m. and I have to go back to school tomorrow."
"What?!?", He asks her amazed: "Already so late? Oh no, I have to get up early tomorrow ... Speaking of early, you should go to bed too."
Gil: "Don't worry, I can go days without sleep."
Kai: "But you don't have to prove that to me."
Gil takes a carving tool and Kai reacts immediately and admonishes her: "Better put that down again. This is extremely sharp and not for small children."
Gil: "Hm, if I let it go through my head, with my 2031 I'm the adult of the two of us."
All of a sudden Kai throws his carving tools, which he was cleaning, into the corner and supports himself with both hands on the worktop.He shakes his head in agony: "You're right, you're already 2031 years old and I'm only 18. I probably won't even get over a hundred."
Gil: "It's grotesque for you, isn't it?"
Kai nods.
Gil carefully puts down the tool: "I know how you feel about Inu. You love her!". As if his worst secret has been revealed, he starts and stares at Gil in horror. Irrelevantly, she continues: "I always hear your heartbeat when you see her, when you think of her, even now your heart jumps when I mention her name ... I don't know what really happened last night, but it was enough That Inu is confused about you now. ", she pulls a sharp engraving knife and holds it to Kai's throat, her gaze digs into Kai's eyes:" Pray that Inu isn't in love with you! ", Kai crashes onto the plate back and tries not to get too close to the knife: "And if it does and you hurt her, I'll kill you myself!Because of you, you simple person, she won't die !! Your fate is in battle! So hold back or you will regret it !! "
In anger, she fires the engraving knife into a corner where there are scraps of wood, rages to the door and tears it open. When she has left the room, she turns around again: "I'm warning you!" She disappears behind the door frame and slamming the door throws itself into the lock.

Still excited, she storms up the stairs to the second floor. When she goes up the last steps between the first and second floors, she stops unexpectedly. Inu stands in front of her, who looks down at her, trembling.
"Inu ..."
Tears flit over Inus excited cheeks and with a heavy sigh she disappears into the middle room.
Gil lets himself slide down the wall of the stairs and remains seated on a wide step. She hangs her head: "... damn ..." and a tear bead falls from the tip of her nose.

At the same moment Kai is looking for the engraving knife in the pile of wood scraps in which Gil threw the knife.Suddenly he felt a stinging sensation in two fingertips. From the bottom of the pile he takes out a blood-smeared piece of wood into which the knife is stuck. When he takes a closer look at the pierced piece, he notices that the remaining piece resembles a heart. Startled, he drops the blood-red piece of wood and escapes from the basement.
