Once enough people have piled into the tent, Casey appears on the stage of the circus. “Welcome, one and all! I hope we can put on an amazing show for the dead man’s town! Here are our show guides.” He snaps his fingers, the brochures appear in the crowd members hands.
”Now, we’ve got a real treat to kick off our show. So without further ado, ladies and gentlemen give it up for our very own Excellent Eve!”
*Whose characters are watching the show currently?*
*Yena is not in the tent.*
One of the lackeys beckons to her. “Hey lady, you watchin the show or not?”
“I- yes…” her hands are in her pockets and she doesn’t make eye contact.
Eito does a kind of weird thing like a spot-dodge from Smash Bros and moves backwards away from him. “The chef.”
Kraus coughs, rubbing his throat as air returns to his lungs. "Yes.."
“I find this disturbing. No one should let their life be utterly controlled by another. Their pursuits should be their own.”
"It's the only way I'll survive and live.."
“What is killing you then?”
"If I don't serve, I am useless. A useless tool has no purpose in living any longer."
“If you are a tool, you were never alive to begin with.”
".. I serve him."
“Then what are you?! If you only live to serve, then how can you feel the pains and memories that torment you?! You are wrapped up in the idea that every part of your life is out of your control. But it is not.”

After Eve’s wonderful performance, Casey reappears on the stage. He seems to survey the crowd, who is applauding and cheering. “Good job, lady.” He says to Eve. He then turns to the crowd and calls out. “What a magnificent performance! Now, please welcome our personal sharp shooter, Clarence Von-Boday!”
A skinny man dressed in cowboy attire gets on stage and starts to put on a magnificent act of shooting, blasting coins out of the air and random objects that the audience tosses towards him.

"I can imagine." He climbs up to the building, taking some time. "This is a bad place. It's barely better than the wilderness that makes up most of this world. But there is no way out. You can escape, but the Saviour refuses to let anything stand that isn't under his control."
"He's the one who stripped me of my power and sent me down here.. I'm not even from around here, I just ended up here for some reason.."
"He has such power... I'm sure he wouldn't be too upset if I started fixing this place up a bit. He might not even notice, actually."
*I just realized that I should give Douxgras a more direct benefit for making the world better. Like the vampires from Loop Hero.*
"Mn.. I don't care.. I just wanna get off this place.." he sighs.
"Like I said, not really a way out, at least not that I've found. The best we can do is not make it a (GP)hole."

After the sharpshooters act, several more acts go on the same way, including an animal tamer, strong man, and many other classics, until Casey himself gets on stage. “Now I’ll be performing my act, folks.” This statement sends a shiver of dread through Eve’s spine.
The beginning of Casey’s act starts with small magic tricks, and evolves into him reading people’s minds and performing the act of creating matter and destroying it.
At the end of his act, the crowd goes wild. Casey moves to the center of the stage and faces the crowd, he’s grinning eerily. “You all liked that did ya? Alright, I’ll show ya one more magic trick…” He closes his eyes and raises both hands as if commanding a puppet, then he opens his eyes and something starts to flow to his hands. It’s a purple, glowing eldritch essence. It’s being sourced from the audience members. They don’t seem to notice it, until their laughing stops and their smiles disappear. Casey continues to steal the essence of happiness from them, until the entire crowd are husks of sadness, weeping and sobbing and falling out of their seats.
Casey opens and closes his hand, his form now flickers with purple essence and godly power. He chuckles, his eyes widen, his laugh turns into a maniac laughter. He moves to one of the hanging ropes and waves his hand in front of it. His arm passes straight through it. He cackles again. “…I’m more powerful than even I thought I could be…” He then turns to the audience and spreads his grin even wider. “And now…I gotta deal with you folks…” He snaps his fingers and the entire audience starts to float, then they simultaneously scream in agony, and turn into mirrors. The mirrors show the townsfolk inside, weeping in sorrow. The mirrors then disappear.
*Everyone in the tent make a DC 22 Wis check or simply be very sad. Casey can’t use the mirrors on anything more powerful than simple townsfolk.*

“I am not sad. But you have no right to be here. One is oneself, and the principal sin is to deprive one of this right. And you should care because it is the truth, and your very existence is proof. But I am not finished. As in anything, there are always deeper truths. Will you listen still?”
*Whoops sorry I was offline for a while*
Although the creatures on Damiens shoulders don't do anything to reply, Damien himself shifts his gaze up, and then down, almost as if the nodding of his head was contained to only his eyes. It is an odd thing to do, but given the unique scenario, his message is obvious. Yes.
“Then…!” Eito draws what resembles a crown or headdress of some kind. “The first of the Essences is Kaiyun. Kaiyun is all that is above understanding. That which is out of reach. It is embodied in the night sky in which no stars can be seen, or in the new moon.” They then draw a lightning bolt. “The second Essence is Kirav. It is the feeling of revelation, the initial burst of understanding. In a broader sense, it is also the ability to know, and even be known. It is embodied in rays of light and electricity, but principally lightning. Shall I continue?”
*Mate the way your character talks is both super cool and super confusing -- I love it*
All three being seem captivated in Eito's words, like it's some magical string that seals their lips shut and pulls their eyes upwards. Damien doesn't even have to nod with his eyes to get his response across. It's showed plain and some in his gaze.
*I accidently hit post before I finished typing haha...I just edited it after though but still that was a bit of a panic*
*thank you! I did a lot of religious research for Eito, i was worried the character was too much*
Eito next draws an ocean wave. “The third Essence is Briniak. It is the comprehension of a concept, but not the full concept. Briniak is embodied in the sea.” The fourth drawing is of a tree. “Kaidat is the fourth Essence, but also the final form of the first four Essences. You see, these four are a progression of understanding. Kaidat is the full assimilation of an idea, and is embodied in a tree, for a tree is sturdy and incorporates many elements, but if that which supports it falls, it falls as well.”
Damien whispers something, resulting in another rock-paper-scissors match between the two floating figures, warranting the Devil a win. *why is it always the devil bro*
"That is a lot of words I'm not sure I understand..." Damien says. "Something about trees...and...ehm..." He frowns, tapping his chin. "It sounds interesting, really, but I guess it's a big confusing. Sounds like you're saying some about gods being embodied in...eh...whatnot? Or stages or energies or something...I don't really know..."
