☀️ Arselia and Akonia

Having performed her final flourish and, with a light wave of her hand, sent all the props backstage, Beata stepped onto the center of the stage and bowed. After waiting for the audience's reaction to subside, she continued. "I've had the opportunity to travel to different lands, meet different people, and listen to different tales and legends. Did you know that some cultures have legends about the sky being held up on the shoulders of giants? Can you imagine what a task that is? After all, the sky contains the sun, the moon, the stars, the clouds, and the rainbows! Try to hold up such a massive thing! It's impossible, I thought, it's just a beautiful fairy tale, no one can be that powerful. But a recent acquaintance convinced me otherwise! Is he really a descendant of the legendary giants? Or is he so strong because he's not sick and takes care of his health? Your applause, ladies and gentlemen, for the rising star of weightlifting – Laikos!" As far as she knows, this is Laikos's first public performance, so backstage, she quickly whispers words of encouragement to him: "Just like in rehearsals, you did great, pay attention, be careful, be focused, you're doing well!"
