SON AGAINST FATHER:
DEATH IN THE ELFLANDS
A DRAMATIC RETELLING OF TRUE EVENTS
LUCIAN the DIVINE and his adopted son DAMIAN stand, square shouldered, before each other, alike not a visage but in determination.
DAMIAN: And what you been to me, these years?
LUCIAN: I am your father. It was I who saved you, I who loved you!
DAMIAN: Love! You denied me everything I am. My true nature. The woman I loved. You would have seen me clean-cheeked, clinging, castrated if it meant I'd cause you no trouble. I am no Alexandar.
LUCIAN: My boy. Your words bite into and vipers. Please. Say no more.
DAMIAN: You made me silent all my life. I'll stay silent no more!
