I have started going through all the auditions and picking actors for the series. I am almost done, though there are still a few people I am waiting for to send in retakes of their auditions. The cast will be picked until next week (let's hope!)
Voice: Medium
(calm manner, monologue)It only takes a spark to start a fire. And even the smallest of sparks can provoke the strongest of flames. Such a flame cannot be extinguished so easily, for its rage is bound to last until its very last resource of rage is incinerated.
(disoriented, coughing from the smoke)Where is the King? Wasn’t he with you?
(tense)My father was innocent, he was framed. He didn’t know what they truly are. But I do. Which is why they’ll have to try much harder to get rid of me. That is, if they even find out it is me who they will be dealing with.
(strict, but also worried)Will! Are you okay?
He’s bitter because I was accepted here before he was.(comically whispering audibly)Higher score and all.
(grunts out of boredom)That’s boring. Why can’t we just join the army? We’re ready for it.(eyes Garret)Well, most of us.
(subtly playful)You made quite the impression during training today.
(intrigued)Intriguing. Care to elaborate?
(tense, but also calm)You know exactly what I’m talking about, Will. The whole thing is insane. I know they deserve it, trust me, I do. But do you really believe that you will succeed? You’re dealing with people of great power. I’m afraid you’ll end up like your father.
Voice: Low/Medium
(arguing with Samantha - which is typical)I don’t need to lick anyone’s -- boot -- unlike you.
Why would women even want to join the army? It’s a men’s work.
(the General gives him an order)Got it!
Voice: Low/Medium
(friendly)
Thanks, neighbour!Stop it. You’re not giving off a good first impression. How about we all take a break and introduce ourselves to each other, okay?(a beat) Okay. Hi, my name’s William. Let’s go in a circle.(he turns to Timothy)You go.
("Are you serious?")Come on, man.
Voice: Medium
Hi, I’m Timothy. Tim for short, if you’d like. I don’t mind, really.
We wait for Lieutenant Lawrence to give us our first task. Then it’s lunch, then training, then supper. You got your schedules, right?
You’re not from Altencia?
Voice: Medium/Low
(coughing, yelling with tears in her eyes)Ilias! Where are you?!(turns to Willow; threatening, low voice, but still crying)What the hell have you done?
(sobbing)I am, I am, I -- It was all fine, it was all fine and then -- the blast, the explosion, oh God -- I need to find Ilias.
(subtly playful)You don’t need to either agree or disagree. He’ll be the next king no matter what, so I’d suggest you calm yourself. Otherwise, he’ll be forced to become king sooner than we both expect.
Voice: Low
(furious, but as calm as possible)Where the hell is our son, Sylvia?
He skipped his classes yet again. Slater said if this awful manner of his continues, he’ll have no choice but to give up on him. And I definitely don’t disagree with him!
(deeply offended, dull towards Sylvia)You just had to mention that, didn’t you.
Voice: Medium
(tipsy, indifferent)Yeah, well, I was... busy.
What’s best for me is not what you want for me. That’s the problem.
See? I told you.(a beat)You don’t get it.
Voice: Medium
Nice to meet you.(to Samantha)Making new friends, Sammy?
Really? My mother’s farm is there. You probably know her, it’s a small village, right?
(the you-know-who guy is obviously someone Mat despises)I’m good. You-know-who’s there.
Voice: Medium
(in a heated argument)You never let me out of the house, you barely let me see my friends, I am human too, you know?!
(yelling)And you’re but a simple bastard!
CRIES IN PAIN after Xavier HITS her.
Voice: Low/Medium
Each cadet has their own designated bed. You will find your belongings in the chests. Breakfast is at six, lunch at one, supper - seven. Training is from two to six in the afternoon. If you feel that’s not enough, then you’re at the wrong place. You aren’t here to start just become a knight. You’re here to become the best knight. If you feel that’s not enough, you should pack your bags and never look back. If you have any questions, now’s the time to ask.
(with a laugh)What do you care? You don’t even like them.
(yelling, insane)You filthy whore! You slept with him again, didn’t you?!
Voice: Low/Medium
(strict, ordering the cadets)Look out for the attackers, they could still be here. And get everyone to safety.
(soft and worried)It’s all right, Sylvia. Everything’s going to be okay, I promise.
If they’re in the academy, then they’re already halfway there. Let them have their fun while it lasts.(jokingly)But if the fail the training, it’ll be on you.
Voice: Medium
(subtly playful)I suspect you won’t be needing me anymore, after a year of furtive allurement.
I’m a professional. Plus, you paid well.

Yes, my Queen.
