Opening

“

AUSTIN: Nine months after The September Incident. After negotiations and debriefings, after concerts and confrontations, the future of the Righteous Vanguard had been determined.

It would happen tomorrow night, all pomp and theatrics. Aria Joie would lift her arm, bright and golden, say a few inspiring words, and then the party would be hers. In some ways, it had been hers all along. That’s what Ibex said, anyway…

ARIA: [scoffs] I’m more upset Jamil won’t come…

JACQUI: I mean… she’s… just… [scoffs] that’s understandable, don’t you think?

ARIA: Why?

AUSTIN: She laughs.

JACQUI: I thought that too, once… Anyway, good luck: I’ll be there for you."

ARIA: Thank you…

AUSTIN: And she stands up, and walks out the door.”
