Chapter 93 Differences in Concepts
As soon as Rilis Shay returned to Ascatella from her country vacation home, she heard many rumors that made her very uneasy.
After agreeing to lend the theater to Mr. Bredreau, the female troupe leader simply gave the troupe members a few days off, and everyone went to the countryside of Ascatla to recuperate for a while.
Ever since Haerdali was kidnapped by the evil wizard, Captain Rilis has been in a state of anxiety and trouble. Not a day goes by without thinking about how to get the troupe out of this embarrassing situation.
But this matter is a dead end. If Haerdali does not return, the troupe's performance level will not be improved. If the performance level is not improved, the audience will not buy it. The troupe will not make money. Without money, it will not be able to hire a strong team of adventurers to save the people. Returning to Haider, but failing to save Haider, the vicious cycle has returned to the first step.
When the adventurer Bredro offered to rescue Heldali at the cost of borrowing the theater for a day, Captain Rilis breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the troupe's troubles might be over, that the knot could finally be untied, and that the troupe would not Has been trapped in the main material world.
When she returned to Ascatra after her vacation, she discovered that she had been deceived by the shameless Bredlow, who did not look like a good person.
Leader Rilith has been running a theater in Athkatra for a long time, and has met many theater fans of Athkatra's noble ladies. These ladies told her that another excellent Sigil theater troupe came to Amn, in Sigil. A very, very, very wonderful magical love stage play was performed in the theater of the troupe.
When several noble ladies mentioned the stage play, their eyes were shining brightly, showing an attitude of great reverence and expectation, as if what they were watching was not a stage play, but the goddess Lierla herself who came down to earth and condescended to dance for them. A "joyful dance."
They also asked Captain Rilis, who was also from Sigil, if she knew the great artist "Bredro" from Sigil. They had high praise for his performance, and they also wanted to find out some information from Rilis. Gossip about Mr. Bredlow's preferences.
When did a great performer named "Bredro" appear in Sigil?
As an authority figure in Sigil's art circle, Captain Rilith did not know this person at all. She was also convinced that this great performer did not rise after she was forced to leave Sigil. She had not been away from Sigil for a long time. She and her friends from Sigil often corresponded with her, and the rise of such a figure in the art circle would not fail to be mentioned in her letters.
There is no harm without comparison. Relis asked them implicitly whether the play of the "Bradero Theater Company" was stronger or weaker than the play performed by the Sea Sparrow Theater Company in Time Seal City. The noble ladies didn't answer, they just looked at her with sympathetic eyes and covered their mouths with a chuckle.
Captain Ruilis immediately understood what they meant - the two were not on the same level at all. The gap was too big. If she told the truth, she would not be able to hold it in her face.
She asked about the plot of that play again, and it turned out to be about an aristocratic girl who betrayed her fiancé and an adulterer and committed all kinds of unethical and debauched behaviors. She was punished by God and refused to repent, even if the adulterer died. I was emotionally cheated on him and never forgot him for the rest of my life.
Is this shameless and obscene plot worthy of being called a love classic?
The classic love story is about never leaving, being loyal to the person you first swore to, and never changing your original intention no matter how many temptations you encounter. Just like in the play performed by the Sigil Theater Company, the heroine Lunisia is still waiting for her missing fiancé Rodrigo no matter how tempted she is by her adulterer Corinado. This is a true love classic!
Relis is also an excellent screenwriter. She has always believed that scripts must carry correct concepts, alert the world, and lead people to do good.
There is a secret buried deep in her heart - in fact, the culprit that caused the Sigil troupe to wander into the material world was the satirical play "The Comedy of Horrors" that she compiled and arranged for the troupe to perform. In this play, she insinuated satire There was a certain evil big shot in the multiverse. As a result, the troupe was chased by a head hunter sent by that big shot. They escaped from Sigil City with the help of the Lady of Pain.
Life is precious, but art is even more valuable. This is the unswerving insistence of Captain Ruilis. Not only will she not buy into popular dramas like "Titanic" that are vulgar, kitsch and vulgar, but she will hate them very much. .
Captain Ruilis had long looked at Mr. Bredreau and felt that he had evil intentions. He could intuitively sense the evil aura emanating from him. It was a pity that he did not use detection on him out of politeness. The camp magic was actually deceived by him.
Ruilis can now be sure that that guy must be a big liar from the evil camp. He must have some evil purpose in making up such a disgusting plot!
Captain Rilith is a mage who believes in Myriel, the God of Singing. Her secret identity is a member of the Harper Alliance. Her camp is chaotic good, and she hates characters from the evil camp the most, especially those who like to bewitch. A popular third-rate artist.
Those people rely on vulgar, vulgar, and kitsch obscene performances to gain popularity and promote wrong aesthetic concepts. These art worms use the word "popular" to cover up the despicable nature of their vulgar performances, eroding the foundation of "elegant" art, and making The people's aesthetics became increasingly vulgar, eventually destroying the palace of high art.
Bredreau extremely cunningly took advantage of her psychological weakness in her eagerness to rescue Heldali, and defrauded the use of the theater. Taking advantage of the Sigil Theater Company's vacation, she took away the audience of the Sigil Theater Company, and there may be more in the future. Replaced the Sigil Theater Company, and even annexed the Theater Company, forcing its actors to perform in the kitsch plays they choreographed.
Anger brewed in his heart. It was nothing more than being deceived and used. Having his moral position in the field of art infringed upon was what Captain Ruilis hated the most. This is a battle of faith in the field of art. She must not give in. She would rather die to defend the sacred temple of elegant art and promote the correct view of love.
After Ms. Relis returned to her room at the Five Flagons Hotel, she had been thinking about how to reprimand Bradero in person, expose the liar's mask, and let him get out of the Sigil Theater with his "fake, ugly" kitsch stage play, forever. Do not release poisonous gas in the temple of elegant art and pollute the hearts of pure people.
People in the chaotic good camp have their own set of moral standards and like to impose their own moral standards on others, regardless of whether this set of standards is compatible with society. They may have good intentions, but if they insist on their own opinions, they will harm others and themselves.
She knew that Bradlow was a powerful adventurer, but she was not afraid of him. The Harpers Alliance stood behind her. If the evil liar became angry and wanted to use force, the Harpers in Ascaltra would not sit idly by. Reason, the kind gods of the Silver Moon Alliance will make the decision for her!
The kidnapping of Haildari involved the dispute between the Lady of Pain and the Destined Sect in Sigil, so it was not convenient for the Harpers to intervene. However, if a member of the Harpers was bullied by an evil person in a dispute in the field of art, the Harpers would definitely take action. .
Just when Relis Shay was sitting in the room sulking, there was a knock on the door, and the annoying voice of the big liar Bradlow came from outside the door: "Is Ms. Relis here? Your loyal Knight Bredlow has something to say to you, please rest assured that it is definitely a win-win situation."
Captain Ruilis twitched the corner of his mouth and sneered, saying coldly: "Please come in, Mr. 'Great Performer', I happen to have something I want to tell you!"
She emphasized the word "great performer" very strongly, with a strong sense of irony.
