A pitch darkness surrounds you. The confusing situation is somewhat foreboding. Suddenly, a voice booms somewhere from the front.
"Live from this Shared Literary Venue! IT'S SARDONYX TONIGHT!"
The lights rise! A stage suddenly appears. The set up includes our red Gem host, Sardonyx, standing in front of a wooden podium.
Sardonyx begins:
"GOOD EVENING EVERYBODY! How are you all doing tonight?"
The crowd around you erupts in singular applause.
The Gem continues. "The show we have planned for this evening is incredible! Yes indeed! It's the episode you ALL have been waiting for! Where we will be taking questions from the audience!"
The audience claps excitedly, before the host continues:
"Now, I know you are all super excited to send in your questions, but we must lay some ground rules first-certainly! Can't have everyone asking anything they please! Keep in mind, this is a PRIME TIME show. Little human children could be watching after all!" Sardonyx nods with a rare amount of seriousness.
"...becides! I rather NOT have to ban anyone from the show- do you know how much it hurts to get kicked out of your own imagination?! Quite a lot, I'm sure!"
Sardonyx sits down in her chair. "That being said: we are going to take a quick commercial break while we receive our questions from the audience! Stay turned!"
As the stage fades out, you hear what sounds like a disclaimer:
