“The Light Fantastic”
Inspired by Terry Pratchett
As the day drew on, and the weather began to reflect Rincewind’s mood decidedly unpleasant! Twoflower’s relentless optimism began to irritate Rincewind almost as much as the near starvation & incessant rain they had suffered for what seemed an eternity. In fact the only positive things that had happened to our intrepid duo that day had been their chance encounter with Swires the gnome (and that was what he was despite not fully satisfying Twoflower’s rather idyllic criteria.) and that they had not yet faced certain death that day, whose increasingly regular appearances were becoming of growing concern to Rincewind if not the blissfully ignorant Twoflower.
Rincewind wrapped the remnants of his cloak around him as they continued to trudge after Swires, trying his level best to ignore even the best efforts of the trees to engage him in conversation a very disconcerting feature of even an enchanted forest. Especially annoying was the fact that the large majority of the forest kept telling Rincewind of their aspirations to become furniture, just like Luggage. Luggage, Twoflower’s personal walking suitcase, walked with a swagger, and occasionally rubbed up against the more complimentary trees. Of course, Twoflower was overwhelmed at the idea of Enchanted trees, trying to engage with them in conversation.
Rincewind shook his head. “They certify people who talk to trees. I hear that the asylum in Ankh-Morpork is looking for new guests like you.”
Twoflower stopped his chatter with the old oak with dreams of tablehood. “What’s that? You never showed me the asylum. Sounds quaint.”
“Oh yes, you’d fit right in. I’ll take you there when we get back… If they’ve rebuilt it, of course.” Rincewind hissed.
“Oh, I must get a picture. I do wish I could’ve afforded that audiograph back in the Agatean Empire.”
Rincewind sighed. Clearly his wit was lost on the tourist. It appeared that he was talking to the ecosystem again. The imp popped out of the device in Twoflower’s hands. “Now, you be careful how many pictures you take here,” he moaned, “I’ve only got a limited supply of green. And we’re still out of pink.”
Twoflower looked bemused “Well, can’t you improvise?”
“I could if you’d get me something suitable” the Imp replied.
Twoflower was off into the tree-line, rooting around in the brambles. Treading on a bit of root, one annoyed Elm yelped “Ouch, mind who’s feet you’re treading on.” Twoflower was mortified. “Oh… I’m so sorry, really.”
“Try further in, you’ll find a moss suitable for the purpose. It gives a lovely deep green sap.”
Thanking the tree profusely, he called to Rincewind for help, disappearing further into the forest. Rincewind shrugged, and muttering to himself, followed, luggage in tow.
Twoflower entered a clearing, Rincewind just behind him, where he saw the moss on the other side. Racing over into the centre of the clearing, Twoflower disappeared as the ground gave way. The wizard and the Luggage dashed off to see what trouble the tourist had gotten into this time, when Rincewind tripped over the Luggage and went sliding into the pit.
Hanging off a root, Rincewind spotted Twoflower on the other side of the pit, in the same situation. Above Twoflower’s head, the Luggage could be seen peering into the hole, shrugged his lid, and settled down on the forest floor.
Standing on the jagged rocks below, the far too familiar figure of Death, scythe in hand, looked up at the wizard. Checking his wrist mounted hourglass, and looking more impatient than a grinning skull should be able to, he sighed.
“YOU AGAIN? WILL YOU HURRY UP, NOT ALL OF US HAVE THE TIME TO HANG AROUND ALL DAY.”
