[Wisely, an owlette, is deeply asleep
in his favorite tree
when gently awakened by Serenity,
Keeper of the Woodae.]
[Prelude: FX: reverb on dialogue denoting
lucid dream state]
Serenity
Wisley.... Wisley...
Wisley
Oh, I'm sorry... [sfx: saw~whet owl;
and yawning] I must have dozed off. [sfx: pause & confusion]
Whew... ...what a dream... yeah... I remember now... [yawn, stretch]
...such a beautiful dream.
Serenity
Wisley... Wisley...
Wisley
What was that?
Serenity
Not a what, Wisely, but a who. You
were dreaming, Wisely. You were dreaming of StarKidae StarGatae.
...but you're wide awake now.
Wisely
Wide awake? StarWhooo... StarWuuut...? [yawn,
stretch] Oh... I don't remember now. What was it?
Serenity
What is it, more precisely. And if
it were a what, Wisely, it would be a way of life. [pause] But
it's not a what, Wisely, it's a where.
Wisely
A where? Well.... ...then... ...where
is.... ...where is [yawn, stretch, forgetting] what?
Serenity
Deep in the heart of every forest,
there's a place... ...a very special place... ...called StarKidae StarGatae. If you look... ...if you look for yourself you'll find
it there... Deep... deep in the heart...
Wisely
Hey... .... Whoooooooo are you?
Serenity
I... ...am the Keeper of the Woodae...
Wisely
And forget about StarKidae StarGatae...
...where are YOU?!?
Serenity
I am right here, Wisely. Be at peace,
little bird, everything is all right now.
Wiesly
Hey... ...how do you know my name?
Serenity
I... ...am the Keeper of the Wood...
...and I know all things. ...Well... a lotta things...
Wisely
...Uhhhh... right. I'm not asleep or
awake... I'm outta here! [sfx: flaps wings ~saw whet]
Serenity
Be at pease. [sfx denotes powerful
peace of Serenity]
Wisely [continues]
Uh... uh... well.... [fluffs feathers
~ searches] ...Then why are you here?
Serenity
I have come to stay with The StarKidzae. They have called upon my Power for they need my help.
Wisely
The StarKidzaee... ...The StarKidzae...
uh... uh... [sfx: saw~whet] Whoooooo are the StarKidzae?
Serenity
Ahhh. The StarKidzae are sparklae
folk who live peacefully... deep in the heart of every forest.
Wisely
In the forest. I live in the forest.
I've never heard of any... StarKidzae. C'mon. What's really
going on here?
Serenity
...Deep, Wisely... ...wae, wae deep...
in the heart...
Wisely
But... [sfx: saw~whet] Whooooooo..
why... [searches] ...what do these StarKidzae do?
Serenity
Mmmm.... they Danse... ...for one...
Wisely
They Danse?
Serenity
They do! And Sing... from dawn to dusk.
They make everything they do a celebration of life.
Wisely
[contemplating] A celebration of life...
...but how do they do that?
Serenity
Mmmm.... ...they... ..discover, Wisely.
And while they Sing and Danse their celebration of life, they
share themselves, helping the plants and animals... ...all of
nature... survive.
Wisely
S u r v i v e ?
Serenity
Yes. Survive. To remain alive... ...to
have everything they need to live... and to flourish.
Wisely
F l o u r i s h?
Serenity
Yes. Flourish. To grow... ...abundantly...
to be the best they can be... ...in balance... harmony... ...and
oneness... ...of course...
Wisely
Yeah... sure... ...of course. I'd like
to meet these... StarKidzae. Where do they live?
Serenity
They live... on the other side of The Gatae.
Wisely
Can we go there now?
Serenity
[as if she's not sure] Mmmm... you
must have permission.
Wisely
Permission? From whoooooooo?
Serenity
From yourself. You must let yourself
go there.
Wisely
Sounds easy enough... ...but, how do
I do that?
Serenity
Just choose, Wisely. You simply need
to make your own choice.
Wisely
All right, then. I choose. I choose
to go to StarKidae StarGatae with you right now and meet the StarKidzae.
Serenity
Then choose, Wisely, you do. Some of
your friends are there already.
Wisely
My friends are there... ...some of
my friends?
[sfx: train~whistle~song: ALL ABOARD,
far distance, a tempo]
Serenity
Yes. And they all... hhhhsssssssshhhhhhhhhh...
listen. Here comes The Discovery Express now. This is Choosy's
last stop before going on to StarKidae StarGatae.
Choosy
Chooooooooossssssyyyy...
Conductor Rich Brown
Board?!
Wisely
But wait! I don't have a ticket!
Serenity
Your ticket... ...is knowing who you
are. Just tell Conductor Rich Brown when you get on board.
Conductor Rich Brown
ALL ABOARD!
