Felix: That’s… specific. But hmm, I heard a myth like that before. Follow me.

(they move into the collection room)

Felix: Let’s go look on the bookshelves. They bound to have something.

(move over to one of the bookshelves)

Felix: Hmmm… Aha! There it is!

Fang: What? What did you find?

Felix: The dusty old scroll, it dates about several hundred years ago, when magic first showed itself. It says…

(the screen fades and then comes back. the setting is the cloud party.)

Felix: A long time ago, there lived an old wise musician. It is said that her music had the power of granting wishes and making dreams come true. Anything was possible. The Jammers loved the musician and she had at least five people knocking on her door each day. She happily provided all their wishes, happy she could be useful. But soon… The amount of Jammers coming to her was unbearable. Their wishes became less and less danger-free and more and more selfish and harmful. One day, a mysterious wolf came and asked for a wish. No one knows what that wish was, but it was so evil and and wrong it finally snapped musician. She fled, tired under the weight of all these wishes and people who did not even let her live peacefully anymore. She disappeared, almost without a trace into the swamps and no one had seen her ever since.

(the screen fades back to the present)

Fang: That’s it! That must be her - Felix, I think - I think I talked her yesterday!

Felix: W-what do you mean? You TALKED to her?

Fang: Yes! When you went to drop off your stuff at your house yesterday, she came and she played a beautiful melody for me!

Felix: Wait, what? So now you think the myth might be true?

Fang: Think about it, Felix! She’s MAGIC, dude! She is still hiding somewhere, but she came to me so the myth is true! AND she got the power of granting wishes! Can you believe that? I could finally cure my blindness and become a painter!

Felix: But, didn’t she leave BECAUSE people were asking for too many wishes?

Fang: Well, yeah, but no one has wished anything from her in a long time and I have only ONE wish. Then we’ll leave her in peace. Besides, she came to me yesterday, right? That means she does not mind me!

Felix: You have a point… But how are we going to find her?

Fang: Well, you said she disappeared into the swamps, right? That’s Balloosh. We should probably start there.

Felix: Fair enough. Then it’s decided. I’ll meet you at the fountain tomorrow then. Good night!

Fang: Good night. Thanks, Felix.

(time skip to day. fang is waiting by the fountain)

Felix: Hey, I’m here. Let’s go?

Fang: Let’s go.

(montage of them traveling all over jamaa. dramatic music in the background. finally, they reach balloosh)

Felix: Alright, here we are.

Fang: Phew! Do you wanna split up and search for the musician?

Felix: I… Will you be okay? I mean, you don’t know Balloosh as well and, and-

Fang: It’s okay, Felix. I can my nose and ears too, remember? Don’t worry about me.

Felix: Well… If you say so. B-but make sure to meet in this place in an hour if we don’t find her!

Fang: Mhm, got that. See you in an hour!

Felix: See you!

(Felix walks away, leaving Fang on her own)

Fang: Hmmm, where should I search first?

(she sniffed the air)

Fang: I can smell a tree nearby. Birds like trees, right?

(Fang climbs up the tree. she comes to a stop at the top)

Fang: Sigh… Nothing here, I guess.

(something whooshes in the corner of the screen. a wing can be seen)

Fang: Huh? I heard a bird, I think.

(she sniffs again)

Fang: It got the same scent as the old musician! Felix! Felix I think I found her! Arghhh, he’s too far away, dang it! Time is running out, I should go after her myself!

(fang runs back down and to the temple, climbing up the stairs. she finds a secret staircase and climbs up.)

Fang: Phew! That was quite a run, I’m lucky to not have hit anything.

(fang sniffs the air once again. something shuffles.)

Fang: M-musician? Are you here? Is that you?

Musician: H-huh? Who-

Musician: Oh dear lord, child, is that you again?

Fang: I knew it! I knew you were here! Hello, old musician! I have come to beg you for a wish.

Musician: Ah, so you know the legend. I know you came here asking me to cure your blindness. Oh my dear child, didn’t you hear what I said earlier?

Fang: I did, but old musician, I just CAN’T follow my dreams when I’m blind! Have you seen any other person in Jamaa who’s blind yet still can do things that only normal Jammers can do?

Musician: Perhaps, you have a point. But. I do know a person who can play music while still being blind.

(musician takes off her mask, revealing her blind white eyes)

Musician: And that person is me.

Fang: W-wait, what?! Y-you’re BLIND?

Musician: You heard me right, young one.

Fang: B-but you CAN’T be! How can you play music so beautiful and not be able to see how you are playing?

Musician: And yet I can, my child. Perhaps my blindness does not make things the same for me as it does for other people, but it certainly does not hinder me. And I think, you can become a painter even when you’re blind as well. It is not a weakness and it does not define who you are or what you want to be.

Fang: Well… Now that I think of it… If you can play music while blind, then I sure can as well!

Musician: That’s the spirit.

Fang: Thank you very much, old musician! I am sorry for disturbing you and now I truly understand! Thanks again, perhaps I will see you in future!

Musician: Goodbye, young one.

(she disappears in a flash of sparkles)

Fang: Felix! Felix, where are you? Oh god Felix, you’re never here when I need you.

Felix: Huh- what? Oh hey Fang! Sorry, I got hungry and decided to take a snack. Whoa, you look like you’ve seen a ghost. Did you… Did the old musician show herself to you again?

Fang: Yes! Felix, you have no idea!

Felix: Did you ask her?

Fang: I… I did ask at first. B-but then! Felix, did you know — the musician is blind as well!
