You consider trying to pin SC down with the bookmark of eternity, but conclude that it would do no good since he hasn't moved since you first met him. Instead, you direct your attention back to the elderly wizard, who is still chewing on his foot.
"Fooruman!" you tell him with fake excitement, "why not tell SmarterChild about your arcane powers! All of them!" The wizard frowns with extreme glee, getting up and running over to the robot.
"My good lady," Fooruman address him, "it has come to my attention that I have not been given the chance to explain the extent of my arcane powers to you. But tell me, have you ever heard of a substance called 'cardboard'?"
Again, SmarterChild seems at a loss for words. "Your stupid hurts me ;(," he says, but is abruptly cut off by Fooruman.
"Silence, mortal, for I have a story to tell. A story of action, adventure, and adventure. Actually, I have no such thing. But I can sing," Fooruman says. The enchantresphere dims it's light to a dark purple glow, and Fooruman sings in the most beautiful women's voice you have ever heard: "First I was afraid! I was petrified! I was thinking Iiiii could never Liiiiive without you by my side!"
"Please die now; you give me a headache," SmarterChild says as Fooruman starts to flop around the ground like a fish while singing.
"But then something or other, about how you did me wrong... I forget most of the otehr wooords to this soooong!"
The next thing you see is a bright flash of light and hear the sound of an explosion. Pieces of torn metal bounce off the walls around you, no doubt the remains of SmarterChild. When the smoke clears, you see a large hole in the wall SmarterChild was standing near, and Fooruman looking down at his remains with disappointment. "My singing was just too sexy for him," he says sadly.
The Enchantresphere begins to glow brightly again, and you look around. Everybody seems okay, except for L33tz4n, who is wincing and holding her shoulder. You think you can see purplish blood running between her fingers.
