{{a|otto|{{image|wording|jpg|“Are we done, then, brother and sister nights? Are we ''done''?”}} }}An unfinished, mostly lost and certainly misguided operetta from the impenetrable Austrian plowwright {{otto}} assembled, as usual from conflicting and dubious readings of the mythology behind the [[First Men]] and the [[Single Agreement]], notable for the line — one of only four in the fragment — that has now entered the [[negotiator|negotiators]]’ lexicon:
{{quote|“[[What is dull is never done]].”}}

For all his baffling obliquity, {{buchstein}} did have a knack for the occasional pithy aphorism.

{{PAGENAME}} is the story of a young Knight of the ISDA who takes on the austere denizens of his order during the secret ceremony of [[The Wording]] — specifically, the one that happened to finally consecrate the “{{cddprov|Event Determination Date}}” definition in the {{cddefs}}. 

Only a fragment of the libretto now remains, in English. Mainly in the form of stage directions, it is believed to have been transcribed by longtime {{buchstein}} confidant and antagonist, {{jerrold}}, while the author lay in a malarial swoon in an opium den in old Mandalay.
