August Contest Submission (An Interview with Two Lightfriends)
Interviewer: I'm here, somewhere deep underground on the Continent, preparing to speak with two individuals who claim to be Light Friends. We've electronically altered their voices, keeping their identities as secure as possible, for they have assured me that their lives are in terrible danger. Interviewer: It's an honor to meet you both.
LF1: Thanks for meeting with us.
Interviewer: What do you mean exactly?
LF2: Well...no one believes in us...
Interviewer: You seem pretty frustrated with the whole thing.
LF1: The readers hate us...
Interviewer: And you feel that it is the lack of these things that has turned readers against you?
LF1: Oh, not just against us...but against the faithful few who believe
in us...sure...
Interviewer: I see...but Jordan has never mentioned you in any of his books...not even once. He's never alluded to your existence...even in passing...couldn't this be reason enough why so few believe in you?
LF1: Yeah, well, one of these days we are gonna, like, "bust out" man...
Interviewer: Okay, let's move on. Have you had any conversations with any of the main characters about this whole thing?
LF2: Nope. Jordan keeps us totally separate.
Interviewer: Ummm...Rand has already been to Rhuidean... LF2: What?? When?? Interviewer: Well...books and books ago... LF2: Oh...Light...see...we don't get out much...but the time is coming! We are going to break out big time! Interviewer: Sure...okay...how many of you are there? LF1: Right now? Interviewer: Sure, right now.
LF1: Well...just us two right now...just me and Blake ~gets smacked
by Blake~ I mean Light Friend number 2...
Interviewer: Have either of you ever talked with Jordan about this?
LF1: Not personally...no.
Interviewer: Really.
LF1: No, but we sent him an e-mail about it months ago...
Interviewer: Right. Good Luck. I'm out of here... ~stalks off~ ~a few quiet moments pass~
LF2: Uhhhh, Morris?
