The Reticent Bewilderment

The Reticent Bewilderment is a sacred solo dance originally devised by the elf Aye Glitterwind. The form guides dancers during improvised performances. The dance is accompanied by The Festive Velvet. The dancer performs slower and slower to the music's timafi rhythm. The entire dance has a basic movement called the cebela. There is a series of four steps in an intricate pattern with a jerking raised right arm and a low body level. The sensual dance is punctuated by serene leftward bends.
