Sycorax
|
Too cold to walk in the evenings on days like this. (Grumbling, carrying two children of her kind, Sycorax heads
to a magical hollow pine tree in which is hidden a spirit imprisoned because
of its refusal to serve.)
|
Caliban
|
Mum, will Ariel serve us after our cruelty and imprisonment in the
cold?
|
Sycorax
|
Yes dear, Ariel will serve us after her longing to be free.
|
Elaban
|
Grrrrrrrrrrr! (Elaban
growls at a figure spying behind a rock.)
|
Prospero
|
(Emerging from behind a
rock of dust.) Horrible creature of the isle, come forth to be punished for
your cruelty!
|
Sycorax
|
(Putting her children away
safely behind a rock.) How dare you confront a witch full of power,
while the confronter is just a human!
|
Prospero
|
You are mistaken like other cruel beings, monster of a witch! Your
children shall suffer if you do not accept the punishment to come!
|
Sycorax
|
(Trembling slightly at the
word ‘children’)You shall harm no one else other than the one who
stands before you, ready to fight. (The
cool voice of Sycorax lingers in the air)
|
Prospero
|
(Raising his staff)Then
let it be. Your punishment will be your death!
|
|
Sycorax and Prospero lock the battle with fierce lightning. The
sounds are deafening, even Ariel clasps her hands over her ears, expecting
any sooner that her prison would blow. Sycorax hisses her curses blowing
gases of blood and poison into the air, her goal to poison her confronter.
Prospero stands on his ground, whispering his charms into his staff. At last,
the battle ends with a tremendous blow that knocks over both magic.
|
Prospero
|
Let that serve to you as a lesson. (He
rises from the ground and disappears past Sycorax into a cloud of dust)
|
Sycorax
|
My children shall have revenge on you once I have passed away!
|
|
Prospero turns and looks into the monster’s eyes before disappearing
for good before Ariel. Sycorax hisses her lasts words of cruelty in the air
before rising painfully and moving away.
|
Caliban
|
MUMMY!
|
Sycorax
|
Goodbye dears. Take care of yourselves and have revenge on this
Prospero. Thwart him with cruelty, hurt his soul, and take away everything
from him for me. Even his children. Challenge him. Menace him of destroying
his life with curses and poisons and enslave him. Bring justice on him and
revenge and pray for my safe return to kill the lasts of him.(Sycorax lies her head down on a smooth
rock and passes away leaving her children full with grief)
