The usual Choice Awards auditorium is brimming with characters, with special VIP seating for the players of course. As the lights dim and the spotlights come on, each Force makes their grand entrance. This year...
A plant suddenly sprouts on the stage and grows rapidly, much like a certain giant beanstalk. As one of the growing leaves unfurls, it reveals Worg, who rides the plant until she is carried towards the ceiling. From there, she leaps off and lands with cat-like grace on the stage, then bounds off to the side to take her place. The plant abruptly disappears.
Next comes the sound of pages fluttering and a large tome appears, floating in the air, its pages turning until they slow and reveal a page full of print. The ink of the words starts to run down the pages and collects in a man-shape form that resolves itself to be Thuoth. Thuoth smiles and bows, snaps the book shut, and carries it with him to his own place on the stage.
A chill fills the auditorium and the lights dim. A blue ghost-light appears, growing and expanding until forming a swirling portal, out of which steps Taed clad in a long dark robe and holding a scythe. As he goes to his place, the room brightens and grows warmer and the blue ghostly portal turns to one of bright, almost blinding, light from which Efil flies out and alights gently in her own place.
Once the portal disappeared and the room's ambiance returned to normal, all the colors of the stage - backdrop, lights, and even the stage itself - begin to run together into a hazy portrait, as though someone had spilled water over paint. Order slowly imposes itself, and where once there was nothing now stands Soahc.
And finally, a cluster of stars abruptly fills the ceiling giving the impression of onlookers of looking up into the night sky. A shooting star falls slowly towards the stage where from it appears Etaf, front and center.
"Welcome to the fourth annual Choice Awards!" she greets everyone. "We're all very glad to be here and to have you - both new faces and old. Without further ado, allow us to present this year's first award."
"And the most important!" Soahc added, grinning widely.
Etaf gave an indulgent nod and held the award aloft. "This award goes to the Greatest Force! This year's nominations were Soahc, the returning champion-"
"Long live the queen!" Soahc intoned eagerly.
"-Worg-"
From where she stood, Worg grinned and flexed her impressive muscles.
"-and yours truly," Etaf concluded. "And this year's winner is.. Soahc!"
Soahc cackled and bounded over to Etaf, plucking the awards from her hands. "I just want to thank everyone out there for believing in me! Because if you didn't, I'd have to start smiting people to remind them I'm still here. And thank you for this beautiful sugar-crystal award."
Efil grimaced. "It's not su-"
Soahc took a big bite out of the award and walked back to his place, munching on the glass shards and commenting that the flavor seemed to hold a hint of burgundy.
