'I'd say there are no large reptiles in the sewers of this town, but then Ferno showed up. So far, there's just a bunch of us living down there, as it's sorta nice, don't ya think? Shady, lots to scavenge, smells like home...'
"As one who relies on reputation, I am unfortunately forbidden from scavenging for myself. As for the smell, home for me is the smell of cotton candy, fry oil, and barbecue."

'That makes sense. Shame ya can't scavenge, as it's a most fulfilling occupation, or, at least it is when you're a guy like me who was raised by a horde of rats in the sewer and was basically feral for most of their childhood'

You guys are awesome and mean so much to me. And mean so much to each other.
"Now, what's this about the circus being a trap? It would take a lot of effort to explain to families and friends why so many people would have gone missing if it was. Plus, there are hundreds of people at the carnival right now. In fact, it is near capacity! Wouldn't I have snapped the trap by now?"

'What was the massive pulsating flesh thing you were hiding behind an illusion? The whole place is an illusion, forgive me for assuming the reality was something to fear considering the lengths you'd gone to to conceal it'

He laughs heartily. "Oh, there is plenty to fear! Think about this: if I created an illusion strong enough to make the entire carnival, what would I need the Ur-Balhanoth for?"
'Excuse me? I don't follow? What is the safety that you are hiding?'
"The Balhanoth is a physical illusionist. Its tricks may look real, but they are nothing but artifice. All the monsters and creaking buildings and blades just out of reach? All fake. They look dangerous solely because of how I've trained the beast."
'So, what brings ya here Ferno?'

'Makes sense. And underground tunnels like these are sort of perfect for that. And perfect for most things...'

*That is true, by the way, Flint would be attractive if he wasn't so dirty*
'Anyway, so if there is a lot to fear, and you lure people in hiding the dangers, how is that not the definition of a trap.'
You guys are awesome and mean so much to me. And mean so much to each other.
"Because it is not the danger being hidden, but the safety."
