Stay close in my arms
Holding my hand.
ALL stop dancing.
LEANDER
I've not danced since I made an honest woman out of a young dishwaser.
COSMO
A what?
HILLARY
We never told you, because we thought you'd be ashamed, but-
LEANDER
-but...I guess you suffer from the same problem as your old man. Finding smart, pretty girls attractive.
YALENA
Smart?
LEANDER
I suppose...I suppose...
COSMO
You'll give us your blessing?
LEANDER
I...suppose.
COSMO
[to YALENA] We're getting married.
YALENA
We're getting married.
COSMO and YALENA kiss.
DORIS
Congratulations!
LEANDER
Let's announce to the people that they have a new royal family member. Princess Yalena!
YALENA
Princess?
HILLARY
Yes. Princess Yalena...and my son, Prince Cosmo.
YALENA
[to COSMO] I love you.
COSMO
COSMO and YALENA kiss.
LEANDER
Let's go and celebrate!
ALL leave except EUNO. HE walks towards the audience.
EUNO
Now the story is at its end. We have ridden the waves of adventure and have finally landed on the shores of fate. Share this story with others. Go and tell what you saw; a kidnapped prince, a courageous princess-to-be, a proud king and queen, the death of a great warrior, the fury of a nasty troll, the vengeance of a very smelly witch!
EUNO backs off.
EUNO (CONT.)
You know. You know. I know too. We both know.
DORIS enters.
DORIS
Hey. Like, you're going to miss the parade and stuff. Leander's pushing off executions tomorrow, and Cosmo's setting up a...dance-thing in the town center.
EUNO
More dancing? Yippie!
EUNO dances over to Doris, then stops.
EUNO (CONT.)
But I don't have anyone to dance with.
DORIS
I'd dance with you, but I have to warn you. I’m not that pretty.
EUNO
Who cares? I'm blind.
DORIS
Good point. Let's go, hotstuff.
EUNO giggles.
EUNO
Okay.
EUNO is about to leave, then points into the audience.
EUNO (CONT.)
You! You there! Story's over. You can use the restroom now.
DORIS and EUNO exits.
