They're always beside you Your nerdy friends And the DM to guide you And they rise from the flame For the battles ahead Then beware Cause you're about to be dead. They got magic and flair They got falchions and cunning They don't see over there There's a monster incoming Inspiration is waiting Can you rise up, don't think twice Put your fate in your hands Take a chance, roll the dice Can you answer the call Diggin' deep in your soul As the legend unfolds Now it's your turn To roll! Now as she spins the falchion around You notice that affixed to her back An uncharacteristically clean leather Towards the rest of her outfit What appears to be a slung over sheath And a very large Plated weapon Larger than your falchion affixed to her back Pick up my cards in a very specific order Very quickly and start stacking the deck. "Okay Alright, if you want to follow me I'll take you to your seats and I'll stand beside you the whole time Fucking lead the way" "Yes sir," before you go We're tafling to tafling Thank you for keeping this rabble in check Of course, you know there are a lot to handle One on the house And I pull two cards What? What are you telling me? I pull the moon and I pull the shadow Does this mean anything to you? Oh, yes Well, think about it Put it away Uh, Beau Beau, turn to you We're turning I just go over and I fireman style over my shoulder Perfect I turn back to them Such grace Such form Such dignity Birds are out already The other Beau Beau's a breaker Goes ahead and collects five copper from each of you as you pass through If I skip A round, can I be part of the show? And then I don't have to pay? Durum durum Weirdly being part of the show means you strangely pay more I'm not entirely sure how that works Enough, you have five copper Ah, for you, Caleb, I do No, I'm not asking I was going to help you, but if you have it, you're good No, you've been spotting me all day I'll take care of both of us That just is adorable I know, highly entertained I like her So stepping in You can see the interior of the tent The rocky floor filled with grass and dirt Various just Flattened groundscape on the outskirts of the Ussalloch You can see a thick Heavy tarp-like material Hitting the very edge Where the heavy dark blue cloth Hangs from the sides of the tent You can see where the seating is guided Across the floor And there, already in a very packed room You see a few dozen townsfolk That have begun to gather in a semi-circle There is the entrance flap of the tent Where you guys are walking in As soon as you walk in, you can see a central pillar A heavy column of wood A tree that has been completely rounded off On all sides, held aloft To carry the top of the canopy of the tent itself And across the way You can see a larger flap tent that is currently closed That appears to be probably the performer's entrance You can see above you Four hanging lanterns That kind of glow with Seems like a flicker of light And the pattern to them is consistent Meaning it's not probably natural flame Children and people are beginning to mash Around the sides And the space along the edges of the interior Of this tent is starting to get a little cramped Did you guys want to sit in the front row? Yeah, really good deal Yeah Front and center? Or do you want to be on the side? Front and center! I'm going to keep my hand on my mica purse For the evening As we sit down, I'm going to pull out my sketchbook And draw the moon and the shadow card That Molly showed me Moon and shadow And shadow As we're walking over I say, hey Asha Because I was kind of totally on your shoulder I heard you talking about my friend Jester I didn't mean anything by it I just She's never mentioned a significant other So I mean I'm not Looking for anything Will you hold me through the show? Oh my gosh I think, I mean that's an extra charge We do do that though Well It's an extra five gold pieces Five gold? These arms are worth a lot It's a very swaddling hug You've never experienced anything like it It's the best way to see the show If that's how you want it I'll give you five silver Just to have your like Your shrug to sit on So my butt's not on the floor I don't take off my shrug Oh, sorry Um How about you just keep your money And I'll put you in a chair And I'll just watch over your weapon Okay So you put me on the ground On the ground I mean Because there's no chair Oh, there's no chair? No, it's up on the floor That's okay Oh, fuck Where are they going to transport benches from place to place? That's a good point Cross-legged on the ground I don't know Well, sorry Bring a person from home like a regular person So as the music Has died down and everyone Begins to kind of crowd and whisper to themselves Eventually it begins to Quiet a bit, everyone having their seats The familiar sound of the fiddle Begins to play and everyone Quickly gets quiet and begins to come to a hush The music seems sourceless In the interior of the tent Everyone begins to look around to see where it may come from You hear points of hushed books Pointing off in different areas And at the top of the tent you see Seeming to stretch and fall Like a slow drop of water The man in red you saw earlier Descends from the top of the tent But now dressed head to toe In a matching deep blue outfit And full makeup To where he just sort of Appears out of the canopy He hangs from a rope by one foot It's wrapped around and kind of clutched As his foot catches the edge Playing his violin Ever so slowly As he carefully descends And in the last moment He releases the rope and lands on his feet Continuing the music he's playing He slowly spins As the longer haired elf leader Of the earlier parade that you saw The one that had barked back briefly To your two new friends over here Enters the tent from the distant flaps Of the performer's entrance His head now sporting that same tall hat Flopping backwards at the apex He extends his arms, removing the hat And takes a deep bow And begins to clap Ladies and gentlemen of Trostenwald I am Carnival Master Gustav Fletcher And allow me to welcome you To the Fletching and Moondrops Traveling Carnival of Curiosity I ask you Each and every one of you Here's some children giggling As he kind of makes eye contact Grant us your imaginations this eve But a trifle bit of kind And allow us to reveal A realm of laughter Mystery Danger And beauty I see you've already met Desmond And he gestures towards the man in all blue Who's playing the fiddle Tonight So keep a wily eye for the shifting fool But first I tell you a tale Of two sisters of the fay As Desmond slowly Leaves the tent You see two armored guards By where he is now have entered to the crown's guard Of kind of stepping by the entrance where you walked in And kind of watch him pass Lost without form Into the mazes Of the underworld There Where the body would break They found a teacher In a mystical serpent And the gift they received Was the ability to bend With dismay That captured them And slither their way back To the surface To reclaim their place In the world May I present to you Mona And Yuli The Knot Sisters As he slowly baths Through the performer's entrance The two halfling dancers you saw earlier In the full body suits Emerge from behind The carnival master As he discreetly exits They sport serpentine makeup Scales affixed to the sides of their face And arms Approaching the central Spire, the pole That holds the tent up One immediately leaps Into the shoulders of the other Bending her back a near impossible amount Creating this humanoid Sculpture that you see The front row kind of cringe At the idea of the pain that would cause An average individual But these halfling women are very nimble And able to create almost a single Form out of two bodies Their rigid form becomes fluid To the eye as they move and shift the music The violin now Sourceless once again, not seeing where This Desmond is placed But they seem to move As it picks up speed I was expecting More Ringling Brothers actually Suddenly the top one folds over And slams into the ground Tumbling across the center In a wild display of physical control The two of them begin to tangle And wrap like two battling snakes Their bodies seemingly Disconnecting from the Rigid halfling forms you had seen And you swear for a moment Becoming serpentine-like As they intertwine around the base Of this pole It's beautiful And violent at the same time, it's off-putting And watch as they curl around the base Of this pole The lights above begin to become A beautiful greenish-blue And get darker and darker Presenting this imagery of the underworld One by one They silently tell a tale of struggle Crawling across One and the other One at a time Using their serpentine-like forms As this extending ladder Folding over each other As they use every muscle in their body To cling around this pole And ladder step up like a snake It's a very strange But alluring sight And you can't help but notice That you forget that these are Two halfling girls And you find yourself pulled into this Wordless story they tell Of climbing back to their place To the surface Towards the dark sky Of lightless blue cloth As the baubles that contain The interior light of the tent Begin to glow brighter The two climbing become more fevered The two of them, arm into arm, leg into leg Rolling up and swirling Until eventually at the apex They grab each other's arms Around the pole before spinning downward Back to back, legs outward With a rapid pace, the music Coming to a full crescendo Like a maypole, they both curl And twirl And then tumble to the ground Before the audience with a flourish Arms in the air Applause As they both begin to back away With smiles on their faces, nodding to each other Gustav emerges once more From the performer's flap The Fool appears at the back Entrance again Taking an ominous tune with his violin This time, his outfit No longer blue, but deep-set Black The hanging lights darken once again As Gustav takes the center stage In a flash Beyond the ash The gods all went and gone The darkness came To grasp, reclaim And suffocate the dawn Suddenly, out of the darkness behind him A burst of flame lights the room But from that night A burning light doth keep back Shadow's bane The strength to fight Will set alight the morning sun Again Ladies and gentlemen I present to you Orna The Fire Fairy And Gustav leaves the tent once more As you watch A pair of metallic fans Alight with flame And now frame the beautiful woman Of short red hair you had seen before In the procession Gustav slinks into the darkness And watches as Orna spins in hypnotic twirl Her simple dress of golds and reds Almost glowing in the firelight around her The flickering of the flames Giving her the visage of a warrior goddess Battling the dark that surrounds The frenzied fiddle of the fool Picks up as she twirls the fans in her grasp Her face stoic and graceful simultaneously The hushed awe of the audience fills the air Watching this magnificent warrior Strike at the shadows The lights above flickering brighter With each spin and dive Orna matches the pace of the music Drawing to a crescendo in leaps And barrel turns that climaxes with a striking A powerful pose as the lights Rocket to a victorious luminescence Once again the crowd goes crazy This is really different than the most carnivals That I've gone to Very artistic We get that Gustav enters As she exits with a bow And the fans flickering out He enters clapping at Orna A low drumbeat begins to beat in the distance As the fiddle grows tense once more Even as the sun would rise anew Bellowing roars would quake the lands of Xhorhas And beyond Terrible beasts Now freed from their dark masters Scattered into our world A terrible guttural roar shakes the room Followed by the sound of grinding and dragged chains From behind the performer's flap The half-forked bow who you had met earlier The breaker And the fool who is now still playing the fiddle Yet the bow of it Continues to go on its own As he drags the other chain with his arm Wrapped around his forearm The two of them pull something Through the flap It swells And from beneath it Is revealed an enormous creature Of green-scaled, slimy-looking skin And a corpulent form Large, toad-like legs Frame, a rotund torso And muscular arms that are manacled And pulling him in He fights and struggles Against the taut chains And he's pulled further and further Towards the center of the tent But is held in place by the two men It roars a second time The front row Immediately pulling back and screaming You hear kids begin to cry A handful of townsfolk shoot to their feet Grasping the children in fear, preparing to run Have we ever seen anything like this before? Gustav continues, seemingly unflinched by its approach The devil-toad Crawls hungrily You hear the three folk Lording over nightmares as they say And what truth lies behind the eyes Of this beast What would be learned When the guiding heart of innocence Pierces the hateful soul And brings it to see beauty For the first time I present to you The vivid voice Of Toyah And as Gustav backs away The devil-toad Struggling against the chains A soft Faint voice Begins to Slowly emanate from the air Eyes previously locked On the frightening creature Now seek a source And find atop a platform within the chamber High up On a small platform set Against the Apex of the pole A young Corvin girl Maybe twelve years of age Her braided golden hair Clasped in her hands at her side A white dress Obscuring her feet She sings With a mystifying mature voice That pierces your heart With joy Unexpectedly and uncontrollably The crowd Audibly gasps as one The entrancing song Of this girl Bringing every person Into this music The devil-toad stops struggling against the chains Seemingly caught By the sound of her voice Its face drops into a soft smile As it slowly walks Toward the base of the pole And sits The half-orc and the fool Drop the chains And back away Leaving the beast free in this rapture Her voice Almost begins to summon a chorus From the ether Only magical in nature As there are no others but her Joining into this piece Her smile is infectious And you can't tear your eyes away You only now realize the tears down your cheeks But you cannot break your gaze From the front row of the audience On the left A man stands up His arms outstretched towards her His dirty cloak falls away His face and skin Wrapped with age And you see his legs shaking as he stands His cheeks wet with tears He shouts His arms drop and clutch his chest He gurgles a burst of vocal pain once more And the folks nearest to him Begin to lean away as he begins To shake You glance over as the old man yells out once more As the skin in his arms suddenly begins to tear The bones splitting From the flesh Rising, cracking Dust and blood shake from his wounds As his form swells Screams begin to ring out From the audience around him People rising up and running for the exit Chaos breaks into the room around you Toya's song abruptly ends The little girl looking down with fright in her eyes The devil toad glancing about worriedly The half-orc and the fool rushing up beside him To look at the transforming man The half-orc yells, escorting patrons to the exit Everyone, leave the tent now! Kyle Reed! As he points at the devil toad Get her to safety! The half-orc, with a sudden gust of strength To the top and grabs The center pole of the room As it begins to almost quiver to his weight He grabs the little girl sitting under his arm And leaps back down I invoke duplicity You watch as her form suddenly dissipates Into multiple copies of her form Yasha, we're going to need those weapons back I turn to Mollymauk And go Man, I was Man, I thought it was kind of lame at first And awesome! This isn't part of the show I thought this would look really good It's too artsy It's very artsy It's too artsy The old man's body stops quaking His flesh now gray and mangled like an ancient tree trunk He turns His eyes blood-red and bulging His lips curled into a horrifying grimace The two crownsguard begin to try and make their way To the panic crowd But the people, like a wave of chaos, are keeping them at bay We're all going to die Probably As this creature turns And kind of blares about in the area This swollen form over here to the side That's what remains of the old man Which stood up in the center of the chamber Okay Well, I'm just going to go for it, alright? I'm going to cast Guiding Bolt On the monster that just appeared Okay As it turns towards you I'm going to run The opposite direction Away from him But I'm going to keep my duplicate up there This creature Closest to one of the people nearby Screaming This young woman who's trying to back away She just turns toward her And grabs and tries to tear into her She ducks out of the way and begins crawling across the ground As it goes for a second attack It reaches down and slams its fist Into her chest And gives out this horrible yelp As it rips into her and begins gnawing into her flesh And pulls away with a mouth full of it And stands up Its eyes now scanning the room for the next possible victim It's going to begin to stop forward Coming up to that guy I'll pass my weapons out for this turn Throwing them out for the individual So your short sword and crossbow Clatter to the ground And you quickly scramble to grab them Caleb's dagger falls at his foot As it falls quickly from behind you Your falchion meets your arm Run up with the falchion You rush through Jester's form You watch the image dissipate As you charge through it And meet up right face to face With this large, kind of gnarled Horrible looking creature We're being falchioned Can I swing into the creature? I would like to push as far into the crowd as I can I just want people in front of me Like pushing a kid out of the way That's exactly fine with me And I will pull out the diamond And cast Traumatic Orb And I will send a ball of cold At the creature Watch out for Fjord! As you push the child out of the way Putting your pocketed diamond out in front of you You focus and you watch as this beam of light blue energy Streaks past Just barely coasting between a few heads As it slams into this creature As crystals form where the wounded impact was Cracked it back into place where it was Having seen The beautiful dwarven girl Who sang and soothed the monster Earlier in the show I'm going to attempt to sing And soothe this monster So I step forward And I open my mouth and I sing And I Will always Soothe you As you're singing out this discordant sound Nearby folks are covering their ears And glancing back and looking in surprise At this strange creature giving off It's now ever taking a few hits nearby Its red eyes, or at least one red eye Like Slips over to look in your direction I'm going to move and I'm going to Dash behind somebody in the crowd Some weak looking individual Oh man I'm just going to kind of turn to everybody and go Yeah, no guys Guys, seriously, it's part of the show Molly said that like Evil will die, like she was just a clack And then I run And I'm going to Kind of like tackle the zombie guy Can I see if I can grapple him? The creature just breaks away, its strength is far more Than you imagine it would be from what was originally a very Kind of elderly looking frame Fuck that, I don't know if that's true Have fun The grapple fails and it pushes you away You go ahead and pull back and then leap Kick it in the chest and then uppercut it in the chin At that point the crowd is now screaming And begins to swell and push in this direction These folks all begin to run Back and around this way This crowd begins to push The guards are trying to push forward And they can only get a little ways forward To there and there Everyone just shits out this direction You both manage to just Bob and weave through the crowd To prevent being trampled And kind of backing away from the chaos The crowd is now pushing through The entrance is too small for everyone to leave And there's now a giant bottleneck People are now screaming And trying to get out They're crying and the chaos is just swelling Into this absolute cacophony As soon as that finishes The devil toad carrying the dwarven girl Who was given a decree Exits out the back with her To go to safety These two begin to slowly back away Seeing that at least things seem to be handled More to make of the current chaos At that point you watch as the woman Whose chest was torn into by this creature Suddenly Snaps up into place Oh shit Okay we have to keep them from being dead I'm going to yell in the back Open the tent wide And I'm going to run around And see if I can, I'm flipping it out And I'm going to activate the first sword So you watch as Molly pulls the scimitar out As he unsheathes it Draws it across the side of his exposed chest Causing a little bit of blood to spill out He pulls the blade out And you watch as the edge suddenly Ice crystals begin to build on the outside of the blade So at one strike you just cut across And you watch as you cut this wide wound open Kind of exposing the fleshy organs Interior, but they're frozen where the wound Cut through and it's still holding it together It's looking like it's starting to hurt a bit And fall apart slightly I'm going to say to the air And say Dude, are you here? Because this is like the coolest shit we've ever seen And then toward the dead And there's a bell that tolls around So as this suddenly This deep kind of Temple bell Rings out in the air above You watch as this creature has turned And is beginning to just wail upon The surrounding allies that are curling at its sides Seems to retract from the sound And cover its ears briefly Before angrily begin lashing out And I made that sound like it was coming from My duplicate And my duplicate's going to run Back a little bit and stand next to the pole The standing creature That's now been kind of Sliced, bludgeoned, and wounded By all three of you Is going to go ahead and make two strikes At Beauregard It swings at you twice With a massive clawed fist Just kind of striking out towards you Wham! Slams you in the chest You feel the wind knocked out of you for a brief second The second swing's going to come at you It slams into you once with a fist And the other one grabs into your stomach abdomen region The claws kind of dig in And its jaw unhinges And slightly drops like a snake's I turn to Fjord and I go I've got a clack This show's bullshit The other one Rushes over towards you, Mollymauk As you're the closest one to it And it's going to take one swing at you Yeah, no, never mind As it swings towards you You watch as suddenly the reddish burning eyes Of the second creature go black And it goes way too wide And misses you, you easily duck out of the way With its first strike As it runs past With a brief opening as it rushes past Mollymauk After its eyes go black You watch as it kind of stumbles, its vision ruined For a moment you swing out with your falchion To strike across the back of its shoulder You see this once What once was this beautiful young woman Is now this swollen, horrible, undead form Lumbering past And you just cut a heavy chunk of meat off of its shoulder It curves around and makes a second strike at you, Mollymauk As the first one you manage to move out of the way And as you spin your scimitar around Glance over just in time To have it clock you right across the jaw Your vision kind of blurs And doubles for a second As you come down with your blade I take out my beautiful greatsword Freshly purchased Get the fuck out of my tent As you come down with your blade And carve through its body You watch as it kind of curls back Trying to reform and hold itself But your blow is too strong And its zombie-ish form cannot maintain A cohesive hold on its form And you watch as it crumbles to the ground No longer moving Crawling animalistically towards the creature And I'll turn and head towards Other tree-zombie-cast hex You watch as S4 Lumbers towards it His large armored half-elf form Holding the blade in his hand Puts his hand out And the shadows suddenly swirl And gather around this zombified woman's form And cling to it Like it's holding it in place I would like to use my falchion To open it the fuck up So as you rush up after the shadows gather around And it pulls back ready to strike And you just kind of shake your head One large swipe of your falchion Carves this giant mark across its chest With a cloth and flesh kind of opens You can see this kind of blackened interior The muscles are trying to move Almost like worms to regather and tighten Push this way through the crowd So that I have a clearer shot As far as I can And then I will re-up with chromatic orb You can push right about there You just barely pull through the crowd I certainly don't want to do that I want to stay in the crowd Okay And I will do chromatic orb again But this time I'm going to set it to acid So as you pull it a second time You're pushing through the crowd You pull up your diamond And right as you're about to release the spell One of the people in the crowd like slams into you With their shoulder and you start off to the side The acid bolt of the chromatic orb flies off And actually burns a hole through the distant tent And then vanishes into the night sky I'm going to just peek out behind Whatever patron I'm next to And take out my little crossbow And As you pull around the corner And release your one crossbow bolt It hits the bottom of the chin And pokes out one of the eyes The eye just goes flying off in the distance As the bolt is now jammed outside of the socket The creature turns Kind of glancing your direction It looks pretty hurt but it's still standing I'm next to Do they have any baubles or jewelry on them? It's hard to look You see this late 30's woman Dressed in general workers clothing With like a loose apron And she's just running and scrambling To make her way to the exit You don't see anything unfortunately You pull your second scimitar out As part of the strike One of them encased in ice crystals The first strike hits And as the scimitar carves through The body like snaps and opens And it Snaps back into place The torso kind of locking back in The second one hits again and you watch As the torso kind of spins off Looks like only the spinal column is holding it in place But it's managing to maintain its structure As it's poking Someone? Anyone? In response to him I say I thought you said you didn't let in the sick Just do it! And I come up and I want to do like a flying superman Bam! And you watch as you sock it in the face And the jaw kind of breaks And snaps back into place As you land pulling it back You can see some of the teeth are actually stuck In your fist as you pull back And broken off into your knuckles The second punch You swing wide and it hits the side of the head And the neck kind of snaps And it's now stuck in a sideways position As it turns the jaw It pulls back one of its weirdly swollen Hands ready to go ahead and go for that Like open wound in your gut And as it does, wham! You slam into its face, you watch as the skull caves in The teeth piercing both of the red bulging eyes And with this horrible sucking Kind of sighing sound It falls onto its back No longer moving The shadows release I like grab my Gash and fucked up red And then immediately turn over me Curt the rest down The crowd is just screaming and rushing The two members of the crownsguard Are rushed to the front, weapons ready And they see both of these creatures Bloodied and ruined across the base of this In the midst of the chaos, one of them points out And goes like, you, you! Stay where you are! And you watch as the rest of the crowd Slowly pushes through You see as Gustav manages to make his way And he goes like, dear god, what's happened here? Looks over towards Beau, the breaker The half-orc who's now joined the rest of you And goes, sir, I don't know I don't know how I got in here And everyone kind of looks around Back at you, Beau looks to you Gustav looks at you, Molly What happened? One of them turned, I don't know what happened There was a sick guy There was an old sick guy And he turned into a zombie And I run over and I cast Scare Wounds on Beau Oh, thank you, old man I'm pretty down Are you sick too? Did you get hurt? Hold on two seconds I'm going to cure her and then I'll cure you too Have you ever seen anything like this happen before? No I'm going to drop my card At this point, the two crownsguard that are there Are trying desperately to maintain control You can see they're visibly shaken And they look glanced at each other Like they're a little out of their depth at the moment It was like, stay where you are! Don't go anywhere! I don't know where ever will I go And he turns to the one who's at the front Find someone! Bring the rest of the guard, please! And he goes ahead and pushes his way towards the back As the rest of the crowd just runs out Now everyone in the crowd Has mostly pushed out of the tent The last few dregs are pushing through Children crying, people across the mall Just exiting out the flaps as they close And you're all kind of standing there Weapons in your hands, wondering what to do What are the corpses doing now that they've fallen? They're both unmoving Just ruined, torn apart Can I search the corpse? Of the woman? As you go to move to it Both of your forms kind of merge The crownsguard goes like, don't move! Which one? Both Genuinely confused When I'm going, which one? I make my second form Just kind of dart forward And start searching the body He begins rifling imaginary things out of the pocket Look at all this stuff It's rising over there And he started, look, and I tried to search the other guy What over there? You begin kind of searching through it You guys watch her do this And there's like a clear line of sight As soon as he turns back, he's going to notice her Gustav is now walking up And he's like, hands up in the air And he's like, I am terribly sorry This should have never happened I don't know what happened We've never seen anything like it before He just gripped his heart and fell over She's been singing with us for over two years now How'd she come to you? She's a pretty young girl She had no family And she was singing in the street for change And there was an opportunity We seized it We gave her a family she didn't have The crownsguard was like It's fine, just don't move You rifle through the old man's body Through the stringing bits of the gore I found something dead there And you do find three pieces of silver You do find three pieces of silver That are just coated in blood A few moments pass The rest of the people are gone And it's just this awkward quiet And at this point you watch as Orna, the fire fairy Who had previously performed, kind of walks in And is like, I'm sorry, what has happened to you? Your little dwarf girl was singing And she turned people into zombies I feel that that was entirely coincidental I'm really not sure the two things are related We just had this, something was wrong with this man It's interesting, because I would say the opposite I would say it wasn't that coincidental I would agree, it seemed to happen with the scene We've seen that scene dozens, hundreds of times Nothing like this has ever happened I've seen people sit in the front row Hundreds of times, nothing like this has ever happened I think you had the elderly and the sick in these tents before Yeah, you also happen to be very explicit On your page That you don't want the sick At this moment, I suppose It's generally just because We want to promote a space Of welcoming cleanliness When we're working amongst the outskirts Of the Empire We don't want to bring an element That reminds you of death We're just people We're an entertainment We have to be cautious The single crownsguard guy is in there with his weapon You can see him shaking He's never had to deal with anything like this before He's like, hold up I've never seen that one before He looks really suspicious No, the guy behind him He does look suspicious He goes Don't try that on me I've been doing this for over ten years I can tell I cast Thaumaturgy and make it sound like There's a sound coming from behind him too As you attempt to cast the spell A little bit of spittle gets caught In your windpipe And you begin to cough uncontrollably Yeah, it just falls away You should know that whatever happened That first man, when he attacked the woman He coughed whatever he had And that is extremely worrying Nobody touch that body He looks back and sees you coughing Over the corpse of the guy Don't touch that body! Are you sick? I have bloody fingers Someone hold her down If she's sick it turns into one of these I will not consume it He's fine, just calm down He's already killed two His face goes white He rushes forward, blade held above I run in He kind of holds back He turns to you and sees you standing A full four inches taller than him With a much larger blade With one hand even Look, if she's going to become one of these things We have to stop her now You'll totally kill me, don't worry You can leave Jokes are great until they get you killed She's joking She's joking You can see his eyes Now that he's closer to you You can see he's sweating, he's scared Generally trying the best he can To use whatever training he's received To deal with a scenario he was not trained for What are the Crownsguard? They're all generally hired and trained militia That are sent amongst all the cities To keep the peace What's your name, man? How long have you been doing this? You said ten years? Two months ago Happy ten year anniversary Yeah Congrats Did you get like a nice watch? Or like a commemorative tankard? No, I don't have watches Did you get a commemorative tankard? No Don't move I'm not moving, man Hey, Flynn Hey, man How about first we put the swords down Because we kind of like Yeah At this point At the front of the tent The entranceway You watch as one, two Three, four Six, ten Crownsguard Begin filtering into the chamber He watches one man The one who has his helmet off and kind of under his shoulder Maybe in his early forties or so Very short brown hair with patches of grey Somewhat jaundiced skin Molly, you've encountered this man once before He approaches Gustav right now The man in the voice I had a gut feeling that you were nothing but trouble When you came into our town Gustav turns around I guarantee to you, my friend I have no idea What happened here? The Crownsguard has been shaken Sir, Flynn, there was a creature This carnival Seemed to create some sort of Terrible entity that killed And then created a secondary beast I watched it with my own eyes From the back row And the man turns back Towards Gustav and the rest of you And who else saw that? Well, we saw an old guy turn into a zombie But it's possible that he just died Because he was old And then he had the zombie curse on him And just turned, you know Because that happens a lot Gustav, it's no use We've been found out Our terrible plot to make a zombie rampage Whatever will we do now that we've been discovered For our brilliant plot To make a zombie ruin our circus Flynn turns to you and goes Put your weapons down, we will arrest you immediately I'm literally holding nothing but my hands I mean, I'm sorry But we're basically a group of strangers Most of us don't know each other We all have the same story There was a show, an old man became a thing And we helped destroy it This one destroyed it What more do you want from us? Watchmaster, what should we do? And the man with the helmet under his arm Walks forward, walks to Gustav And gives him one look over Still a few inches shorter than him But looks at him with a sense of purpose And social status That has a sense of disinterest And disrespect You, sir And your orc And your circus Are considered currently under arrest Who else belongs to your merry band? The orc Glances back at the two of you and goes The rest of them Are just purveyors of our performances He was just joking earlier, right? And you are also under arrest Oh no Oh no The rest of you, what are your names? Shirley Ah, Temple Caitliff, Widow, Guest Bo, same as him Bo Do I know who might know What has happened here? Do you? Tell me I'll have to go get her She is the singer that made this All happen Flynn, escort this woman to retreat This individual she speaks of And Flynn can answer whatever towards you She's really shy though And I hear she only talks to tieflings So you should probably send Stay where you are My father along, cause he's really good with that Good with that Try not to stop any random people on your way there, Flynn You're doing good My men tell me that the rest of you Have destroyed these fiends Is that correct? Yeah And on the behalf of the Starosta I appreciate your aid But until this investigation is complete You are all under investigation From us Where are you staying? Good Do not leave this city Unless you are told otherwise Should you do so I have your names And I can have the full might of the Cerberus Assembly Track you down Flynn, free this girl While you all stand in this tent Flynn approaches you and kind of walks a little bit behind you Weapon drawn But at the side So you walk to the performers flap And as you walk out you can see Backed up into the number of tents that are set up While you're in the carts Other members of the circus are hiding And as soon as you exit out the front And they see you before the crownsguard They all immediately scatter and vanish Into the nearby shadows out of sight The two of you walk out Into the center Kind of the fire crackling In the small pit off to the side All right, where is this This girl you speak of? She's in the back of my tent Show me There's the flap, it's slightly open Gets his weapon ready and he just kind of walks into the tent There's a few moments before in the distance You hear a voice say The tent is empty, what are you talking about Hello, hello And you don't look back, you just run Into the darkness of night Into the marrow fields and disappear While that was happening close to the edge of the tent And at some point I just Summoned Frumpkins So Frumpkins is out there Within a hundred feet As you heard a lot of earlier Turns to the rest of you So the investigation will begin If any information comes to light That could alleviate you Of the charges brought To this carnival Come to me and let me know If you have no answers before we complete this investigation Then I believe you all Will fall into the judgment Next time we don't help That's what it comes down to I know, we got paid the first time we helped And then we got arrested the second time I don't know what lesson to learn Yeah, yeah The guards escort you out of the tent Molly, you're stuck behind With Gustav and Beau The Breaker With a guard of five crownsguards Set to keep watch As the rest of you are sent to the city The watchmaster turns once more and says Remember, you flee, I'll find you
