31 Plays in 31 Days, #22 - "Protect Him"
Aug. 22nd, 2015 09:46 amThis scene is a followup to this one, the first time Morna and Diana clash over the best way to protect Aidan through the dangers of the revolution. I'm trying to keep their perspectives consistent in the way that they each want to take care of him but have different ideas of what the best way to do that is.
This comes from the idea that they offered an amnesty to former Roman soldiers for their service to the empire if they defect and join the rebellion instead. But, because I wanted to in some way preserve the idea that Aidan encounters old abusers in this struggle, Bernie suggested that we embody that in one of those defected soldiers rather than one of the big bads. This scene would come after Morna makes a decision about what to do the first time that happens.
