Ragnar had finally gotten word of some quests from a person that he would consider more of his type of guy. He gave him this job to go to the theater and talk to this woman named Alice Nightingale, who is supposed to be some kind of celebrity of Marigold at the theater or something but apparently she had a mean streak in her, enough to know to reach out to Ragnar's guy to find someone for this job. Ragnar shrugged as he figured a job is a job and he could use to money for new equipment as he turned the corner to talk into the Theater District of Marigold, not really sure what to expect as he has never been in this area before as he had never had a reason. Many of the people walking around looked at him in amazement and awe, unlike how they would normally look at him with fear and disdain. As Ragnar walked the streets he heard a couple of people say " that costume looks amazing! " and " that is really scary! I can't wait to see what play that is for! " and things of that nature. Apparently people like Ragnar walked through this place all the time, but apparently only as actors and not the real deal. That was interesting to him as he turned into the theater house he was told to go to and meet this woman.

Miss Nightingale was yelling at everyone, giving orders like a general would to a bunch of new recruits who could not march in line correctly. She was clearly kinda a hardass as he watched her order people before walked up to her and grabbed her attention. He informed her that he was here for a job, and she explained that this was a job for rigging. Ragnar sighed internally as he realized this was another nothing job that he hated but he needed the money badly so he accepted.

After being given a very quick rundown of the ropes he needed to pull, the people there seemed to be very impressed that Ragnar was able to pull and lift stuff from the ropes that normally took two or three people to do sometimes. This gave Nightingale a great idea as she said that Ragnar should be the person to lower her down during the big scene of her flying. They had apparently bought magical robe that was invisible, which also apparently took forever to find on the stage for various reasons, and that it would be hooked up to her to then have her swing across the stage like a magical fairy or something. Ragnar stopped listening as soon as he was told his instructions and as they turned to why they were doing it and the art about it and all of that.

Ragnar spent the next several hours just practicing with the ropes and pulling the right ones at the right time, a couple of times grabbing the wrong rope and pulling it, either bringing the curtain down on someone or slapping them in the face with a piece of the set. He didn't have much more time for training as the show was in thirty minutes so they just kinda had to live with what Ragnar could do.

Ragnar did the best he could with the amount of time he was given, and on more than one occasion accidentally pull on the rope a little too hard and bring the set-piece to high or too low for the piece, causing some fo the actors to have minor issues. The one-piece that Ragnar did very well was the swinging of Alice Nightingale through the air like a fairy princess, which he did with one hand due to her being so light and the mechanics of pulley systems doing most of the work.

After the show went well, Ragnar was paid and he then went home.
