    Summary

    It's not opera, not at all... jazz. Isn't that what Francois said? And if so, then he wasn't lying — Isolde is talented. The unfamiliar rhythm is charming. She feels like tapping her foot to the beat. The breath comes to her only at the behest of a wonderful voice. The fan almost cracks in her tight grip.

    Klara doesn't immediately notice the tears. She only feels them with a salty taste on her parted lips — that's what rudely brings her to her senses.

    Klara finally wakes up, and the old admiration is washed away by a wave of anxiety.

    Isolde Von Dittarsdorf. The Star of Vienna. Her dear, lost Isolde, ihr singvogel — oh, what is she doing here?

    Klara meets Isolde on a cruise ship and it goes better than she expected!

    Summary

    Yours, she gasps out, yours, Cavaradossi, yours. They’re in the back alleys of a stage, guttering lights a flicker above them. Isolde places a hand on her collar and they roar back to life. Dress up, running lines, they’re rehearsing one scene or another but Isolde has always had a penchant for improvisation: here is Isolde, heart in her hands, proffered like a prayer. Kakania swallows her heart and it crawls right out of her throat.

    (one-two step. here. here is the epiphany, cast in incandescent light.)

    Isolde paints a smile on her face, love-struck, devastated, unnameable, and for a whiplash of a moment Kakania falls, falls, falls.

    isolde dreams, and kakania joins her in duet.

    Summary

    Within the walls of the St. Pavlov Foundation, there circulates an infamous rumor that the sudden release of Isolde von Dittarsdorf was a massive coverup for a jailbreak carried out at the hands of Manus Vindictae turncoats. Why else would her personal file be counted among some of the Foundation’s most classified documents?

    Kakania knows better than to believe in all the gossip, nothing more than the desperate attempts of bored office workers to fill their days with something more interesting than their endless piles of paperwork. She has far more important work to do for the Foundation than entertain such meaningless speculation.

    Isolde returns to Manus, and Kakania commits to her role within the Foundation. They try to make it work.
