You could certainly say that! But now that you've slain it, I'm free to go back to telling my boring tales in peace. Lucky me, huh? Here. I used to use it in a comedy act, but I'm finding it's a little too real. Divines guide you, my friend... or Almsivi bless, I suppose.

Stage fright, huh? Well, I guess I don't blame you. If you like my stories, that's my collecting cup over there. Ahem.

Oh, thank you! This will make things so much easier. Here, take this script. It's a rough one, so I don't expect you to follow the lines exactly. Just try to make it comedic, alright? The people around here need more levity in their lives. Tell me when you're ready to start the show. You'll be playing the part of the mabrigash.

You've already done more than enough. Thank you.

I suppose I must explain what is going on. I've been cursed by a Daedra. I poked around in a Daedric ruin, you see, thinking I'd finally understand why my people honor them so. Well, one of them chose to honor me instead by offering to make my story-telling more interesting. Heh. Can you believe my naivety? I accepted.

Just tell me when you're ready to start the show.

Most bards sing. I have a terrible singing voice, so I tell stories instead. Parables and folk tales, you know. I have one all ready to go for tonight, but I need a second actor, if you'd be interested.
