Duke Corpus: ...Nevertheless... Thou must hoist enough for mine future body to acquire the illusion of Life.
Taking all three ropes suspending the scarecrow body, Gianna is grunting, with her hands pulling two and her mouth pulling the third.
Gianna: GRN!
Gianna (thinking): Did it need THIS much mulch?
The Pink Slugfolk from the chairs raises his hand behind Corpus.
Pink Slugfolk: Sir, surely we could...
Duke Corpus: Perish the thought! Mine subjects must bear witness to mine rise! Why, in days of yore, DOZENS were privy to the greatest of mine castings!
Suddenly, the doors burst open (with "BANG!" SFX). Ama and Geddon are shoving aside the Pink Slugfolk with the bandaged eye, catching him off-balance.
Geddon: SIR! SIR!
Ama: THEY HAVE MADE IT PAST US! They are on their way!
Beat, with Corpus' spectral pupils shrinking.
The two Slugfolk in his audience clamber up the stage.
Duke Corpus: Two of thee, rush forth and aide Gianna!
