Sir Weissenasche was seated in the theater's audience seats. As a judge, he was seated at the front.
'Singers' from all over Norland were ascending and descending the stage one after another.
So far, Sir Weissenasche has audited twenty-three fame-seeking contestants. Of those twenty-three people, twenty-one performed so horribly that Sir Weissenasche felt like sighing.
He had already lowered his standards enormously per Joshua's instructions. As long as a contestant's singing ability could reach that of a bard or minstrel that could be seen all over the road, they will pass the audition.
Regretfully, as matters stood, Sir Weissenasche has yet to find a single individual who was able to properly perform a folksong or epic. Nor did he find any contestant that resembled a 'singer.'
