[CENTER][h1][color=f49ac2]Witchlight Carnival The Fourth Hour[/color][/h1] [color=82ca9d][h2]The Big Top Extravaganza[/h2][/color][/CENTER] The mood is still bright as the crowd talks amongst themselves, the party included, and nothing seems to be out of the ordinary. Tsak arrives just in time for the event to begin. The lights dim and a hush falls over the crowd. A second later, a spotlight illuminates a lithe, elven figure sitting in a silver hoop, suspended above the center ring by silk ropes. The elf wears a dazzling suit of diamond-pane mirrors and a pair of butterfly wings. His scepter is topped with a spinning vane. "[color=f49ac2]Welcome, one and all, to this evening's extravaganza! I am Mister Light. Prepare to be delighted![/color]" As he gives his call, music began to play the 30 second musical intro, crescendoing until finally a clamshell bathing pool finally opens to reveal Palasha the mermaid! Mister Light calls to Palasha excitedly while taking on the role of Ringmaster, "[color=f49ac2]Take it away, Palasha![/color]" As if perfectly time by Mister Light and the music, Palasha begins to sing. This is no mere serenade, but a jubilant song of joy and excitement that encapsulates the wonder of the Carnival. [CENTER][youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2wcuZrn0hY[/youtube][/CENTER] As she sings, the water moves about on their own, creating sculptures and dancing figures in time with Palasha's singing and lyrics. During this song, faerie dragons also appear, and fly with different colored streamers fluttering behind them. It is a perfectly sung and choreographed piece that captures the audience's attention. Once the song finishes, the audience applauds. The mermaid takes a bow before the clam bathing pool closes and attention is directed to a bugbear wearing a jack-o-lantern helmet comes up, with Mister Light introducing him as Burly the Bugbear. He proceeds to entertain the crowd with feats of strength. Each object he lifted was heavier than the last, and at the end, he lifted all of those objects at once with just one hand! The show continues with a series of acts: Acrobats, fire breathers, clowns, and even Candlefoot! The once silenced Mime contributes to the show by playing silent games with some of the audience members. He doesn't say anything to the party, but he gives them (more specifically Brutrumukk and Jub) a wide and joyful smile as he tries to get the party to play a silent game as well. After a finale with Palasha singing and all of the performers on center stage, Mister Light takes the stage once again and calls as they applaud, "[color=f49ac2]Thank you! Thank you! You're all too kind![/color]" He then calls out, "[color=f49ac2]However, revelries are the best especially when talents and acts can be shared! So, I ask you Dear Audience, before ending this extravaganza: Who among you would like to share your acts with us?[/color]" [hider=OOC]Mister Light has just given the audience a chance to perform! If you would like to perform, it will be a Performance check. If there's more than one party member performing, this will be a group check. ^_^[/hider]
