Lhunardawen was banging her head against the wall. "I'm too tired, I'm too tired, I'm too tired...", she hummed in an endless mantra. Bang. Bang. Bang. Her head hit the stony wall again and again. The banging grew louder until it was swallowed by Lhuna's screaming: "Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!" The villagers heard a huge cracking sound and there was blood everywhere. Lhuna had smashed her own head so hard against the wall that her skull had broken.
"Messy", commented Shasta, summarizing it all quite nicely.

In a long and noisy acclamation, Legate, The Might and Gil-Galad managed to be the noisiest and so it was agreed that Macalaure would be killed.

”Killed? Me?” he asked, ”Oh, come on...”

”We're entirely serious”, the villagers told him.
”Oh, a pity”, he said, making an elegant turn on his heels and casting off his garb at the same time.

”No! We don't want to see Mac Uncloaked! Gandalf was terrible enough!” Mith wailed, but it was too late. Where the miner Macalaure had stood, now a mighty shape of flame and shadow rose to fill the room.

The villagers screamed. Mac the Balrog with Swing smiled down to them. Then, he started singing in a groovy voice:

”Wie sie geh'n und steh'n
wie sie dich anseh'n
und schon öffnen sich Tasche und Herz
und dann kaufst du 'n Ring und 'n Nerz
ein lasziver Blick
und schon ändert sich deine Politik
kein Boss und kein Actionheld
kein Staat und kein Mafiageld
Balrogs regiern die Welt”

Walking moonwalk, doing pirouettes and setting off his show with gorgeous pyrotechnics, his show no doubt captured every single villager's attention. Actually, after the fantastic show, they no longer harbored thoughts of killing this genious showman. Why, it would have been a great loss to the world. Instead, they applauded and whistled. This was definitely the best show seen in Gondolin in ages.

”Bravo! Bravo!” shouted Naria.
”Oh, he's so amazing” Nerwen sighed.
”A true star”, Kath agreed.
”I wish I was as good as he is”, Nogrod said with a regretful tone.

By that time, two enthusisatic fangirls had already surrounded Mac with Swing.
”Mac! Mac!” Sally shouted, ”the hairy balrog!”
”Oh, but do you balrogs have hair?” Brinn asked, her eyes shining.
"Do you think I'm some kind of a werewolf or so, eh?" Macalaure asked, insulted, "I'll go back to Angband, it seems here even my fans are all second class!"

He turned his back to the miners to hide his tears. There was nothing left of his great show anymore. He shambled away, humming a sad tune: "I'm a poor lonesome balrog..."

That was the last what was ever heard of him in Gondolin.
