The Scourge of Ephesus - Day 1 - Conclusion




Ephesus - The Ancient theatre - 8.00 pm.

The gathered tourists shouted and yelled.

It was getting hot. 40 °C in the shadows.

The debates got heated as well.

Reenk Roink, Tevashzat and TinCow were at the middle of the attention.

Finally, the crowd pushed Tevashzat and TinCow forward.

"Lynch Tevashzat, he's got a scummy face and some guy claimed he was sure about his guilt", one group of tourists yelled.

"No, lynch TinCow! I've heard rumours he hails from England. England + cows = madness. Aren't we looking for a maniac? It's him."

The crowd kept yelling and pushing both men until the athletic man, who had spoken earlier that morning stood up and raised his voice.

"Shut up! It seems like you guys can't make up your mind." He held something in his hand. It had a silvery shine.

"I found this ancient coin. I suggest I flip it. If it's head, it's TinCow, otherwise, it's Tevashzat. Agreed?"

The crowd approved and thus, the man flipped his coin.

While the coin was floating in the air, somebody raised his voice: "Wait, I've changed my mind. I no longer think Tevashzat is guilty."

***

Suddenly, time stopped and a cloud appeared and a golden light shined over the theater. A loud voice could be heard:

"What? I had this whole story ready about a crowd looking at a coin and guys pushing each other and something happening and then you're going to make a last minute vote change? Gah!"

The cloud disappeared again and time continued.

***

The athletic man turned his gaze at TinCow.

"Ok then, it seems like you're the one who is going to die. Any last words?"

TinCow looked around him.

"You are all crazy! Crazy! I'm an innocent man! If you dare to lynch me, then I'll, I'll, I'll... I'll sue you all!"

"Yeah, yeah," the athletic man said and he kicked TinCow in the face.

As soon as he hit the ground another man took a large rock and threw it at TinCow's skull. Another one did the same and within minutes the crowd was kicking and hitting TinCow's already dead body.

After the crowd was calm again, one man said: "Now, sue us!"

The gathered tourists laughed.

"Let's hope we got the scumbag! Good night all".

And so, the tourists walked away, hoping for a peaceful night...

While the tourists where still whispering and talking about the past events, a gentle breeze tried to cover the coin under the sand again. Before the coin disappeared however, a man grabbed it and put it in his pocket.
