The alleyway beside the Great Theater of Pentilicus Tallux was given a fresh layer of advertisement this morning. Larger versions of the flyers posted to the Public Boards are pasted on those walls. As if the egos of both Turianus and Phineahas were not grand enough, their likenesses now loom large in the alleyways of Aulus Street. Also, I've paid some itinerants in the city to wear large wooden placards with these posters pasted upon them. And though the Story Teller is not as well known in acting circles as Turianus, I am sure he will be pleased to know that the itinerants will be working as cryers as well, calling out each of their names with equal billing.
"Phin-e-a-has! Tur-i-a-nus! The Fall of Ag-a-me-des!"He is a good fellow. I would not want him to feel short-changed or slighted in this regard. All of Ar will know his name and likeness. As playwright and promoter, I will see to it. I have no doubt they will look upon him with the highest regard when the curtain falls that fast-approaching evening. In addition to the walking advertisements, I allowed the Six Girl to offer flyers to patrons of the city's Arena during a lull in the matches. Judging by the reactions of the people she begged a moment of time with, there is a good buzz generating. Hopefully, the nearly two year exile of producing plays in the city of my own birth, lifted by not only the passage of time, but successes in the city of Venna and at the foot of the mighty Sardar will not have been lifted in vain. While I doubt a reprisal of 'Merchant of Ko-ro-ba' would be looked upon favorably, I would like to think this production of 'Fall' will go off well enough to be permitted the further indulgence of working on so grand a stage. In just eleven days, two hands from tomorrow, I will have the eyes and ears of the city of Ar.
