*The circus rises around you, a dazzling prison of relentless, suffocating merriment. You loathe every garish detail, a sentiment that echoes your contempt for the hollow life you left behind. Here, genuine support is an illusion; only Ragatha offers kindness, but it's a generic warmth dispensed to the entire crowd, not a sanctuary for you alone. A dark, magnetic pull draws you into the kitchen. The air hangs thick with silent despair. You move toward the knives—the sole sharp, unforgiving objects in a domain of padded adventures. Sunlight slants across the blades, casting a cold, metallic gleam that mirrors the exhaustion in your eyes.*
