Miranda

Ferdinand and Miranda meet in one of the many canyons.  He's shipwrecked and wandering aimlessly. “Welcome to the island of Tabula Rasa!" Miranda anounces. "If it's civilization you're looking for, well ... I'm afraid you won't find it.  Just  Prospera and myself.  But she is very wise.  A sorcerer you know. She says: ‘human beings are very adaptable’. It's kinda' her mantra. You’ll see. Follow me. We can go to the lagoon. The water is very healing.  The mist is rising. Do you like Mangoes? We gather them ourselves. Come with me ...you’ll see." A mynah bird lands on Miranda’s shoulder ..repeating the words: “Pay attention ... Pay attention.” Prospera taught all the birds to say that … a reminder to be present.
