The Sword in the Stone

A comic strip in four panels:

Panel 1. In darkness, against a background with vegetal notes, through a faint beam of light stands a massive silver sword, finely decorated, embedded in a pedestal that looks like stone. A small warrior mouse and a magician mouse hurry past, hand in hand, but the warrior is drawn to the massive sword.

Panel 2. The warrior mouse is already on the pedestal, straining to pull the sword out with all its might. Meanwhile the magician mouse examines the pedestal.

Panel 3. The warrior mouse has succeeded! The massive sword is now in its possession; he is happy. Meanwhile, in the background, the magician mouse has managed to pry off a piece of the pedestal with her bare hand: waves of strong smells reach her nostrils.

Panel 4. The magician mouse lights the scene with her staff: they are actually both on a cheese platter, and the “sword” was only a knife stuck vertically into a cheese with a gray rind textured like stone. The platter has a piece of Roquefort and Emmental, grapes and a salad in the background. The magician has hearts in her eyes and the warrior is surprised by the discovery.
