Suddenly
turning up from the end of times, Chronos, the Great Master
of Time, appears in a beam of light. He is dressed in black
and in white.
He
is slowly getting closer. With a heavenly voice, he starts telling
the Legend of Marotte and Litgère and the mysterious
history of the Order of the Temple.
The
fairy of lights makes us discover, one after the other, a blacksmith
who’s forging the metal, a baker who’s lighting
his oven, a farmer who’s dragging a sheaf of wheat.
Horse
drawn carts are trying to make their way through the crowd;
careless soldiers are almost asleep.
Charming
young girls move from one group to the other.
On
the square, in front of a concerned and curious crowd a tooth
puller is preparing to tackle his first patient.
