“A sudden bolt of thunder shook the castle as if it were under attack by an artillery barrage. Not surprisingly, the quartet lost their places, making their music degrade and collapse into a cacophonous wreck, though no one except for Berva and the queen seemed to notice. When the first violinist cautiously looked to the queen for guidance, she responded with a nasty glare and a hand twirl, ordering the derailed musicians to get back to earning their pay. Once the quartet resumed playing, Berva took a moment to examine and try to identify the individual musicians. First Violin: some old guy. Second Violin: some old woman. Viola: another old guy. Cellist: Momâ€� Wait a minute... Something’s not right. Mom doesn’t play cello ... this must be a dream.”
