Matthias: (Intro Music) While enjoying some freshly cut lotus with my friends, a man stumbled upon our circle (footsteps) asking for food and shelter. He uh…um…oh yeah we gave the man some water, but we lotus-eaters are a simple people and all we had were our lotus. So we gave the man what we had and we got to talking. From what I gathered he and his friends were blown off course (ocean waves), he said he was from Ithaca or something and that his leader was ummm who was that guy Odymmeus? Odycleus? Odysseus! Yeah so we hung out for a while (guitar riff), and who would have guessed but another Ithacan showed up, the more the merrier I say thank god our stash had been replenished so we could spread some lotus love. More and more Ithacans showed up and like the one before them they just couldn’t resist our lotus, who can man? That’s some good stuff. Anyways, where was I, so yeah they filled us in on current affairs war in Troy, sacking of the Cicones, kidnapping of Helen…whatever the rest of the world doest matter as long as I got my lotus. They seemed most grateful, but after awhile me and my buds were getting irked by the insane amounts of lotus they would eat. They took that stuff in like pros. Good thing this man showed up claiming to be that Odysseus guy, man he was pissed, he just brandished his sword and cut down one of my friends in frustration…lucky for him my lotus was so good or I would have done something. He just kept getting all belligerent and becoming mad, he rounded up his men and angrily left with them. Angered I stood up (suspense effect), and said…later guys (drums/fade out).
