GC: ((Turns to look at Leicky. Lifts eyebrows.)) And why should I care, hmm? They worship me, not the other way around. Besides, I love this toy. I've been practicing and I've almost gotten good enough to get it to go up the stairs!

LK: ((Thinks: that's impossible))

GC: No it isn't. Shows back on.

They start watching Act 4.

There's a distant stomp and the room shakes. Leicky looks up in alarm. The Goddess is intently watching the show.

LK: Did you feel something?

GC: Shhh! It's just Autumn's rats.

Leicky isn't so sure. Another stomp, closer. Room shakes a little harder.

LK: There it is again!

GC: Quiet bard! Or it's off to Tartarus with you.

Leicky shuts up. A third stomp, even closer. Room shakes just a bit more. If you listen closely you can faintly hear screaming.

GC: ((Still watching TV)) Be a good bard and see who's at the door.

Leicky gets up and goes outside to see what's going on.

LK: Aahh! Giant Lizard!

A giant lizard is at the edge of town and heading towards the Temple.

GC: ((From inside)) Who's at the door? I can hardly hear you!

LK: ((Speechless. In shock.))

End of Act 4. Show's over. The Goddess teleports outside next to Leicky. Goddess starts playing with her Slinky again.

GC: ((Looks at the shocked Leicky)) Hello?!? I asked you who's at the door.

LK: ((Points to the edge of New Cirra))

GC: ((Turns to look)) Aahh! Giant Lizard! ((faints, who knew the Goddess had a fear of giant lizards?))

It would take Trancer and two firemen 45 long minutes to revive the Goddess.

Meanwhile...

GL: ROAR!!

New Cirrans: Run away!!!

Bello and the New Cirran Police Department are trying to evacuate the area.

BL: I didn't sign up for this! Where's Jeff when you need him? Where's the army, where's the air force, where's the navy? I should've called in sick.
