event: portal five | the carnival

[mayfield_mods]

The fifth portal is in the park, tucked away behind a cluster of trees; as usual, any drones walking past simply ignore it. The cheerful carnival that can be seen on other side of this portal may strike many of you as quite familiar.

The carnival doesn't seem to have changed much since the last time it was open. The street that had been behind the carnival has disappeared, but everything else remains the same, down to the sky looking like it's been completely deleted and replaced by a gaping hole of nothingness. Despite this area being the smallest and most enclosed environment so far outside of the blimp, there are plenty of places to begin your search, from the Ferris Wheel, to the funhouse, to the various rides and stands. Just make sure to avoid the large glitch holes that seem to be all over the place.

Oh, and you might want to speed this one up, because you're not alone here. The faceless drones from the blimp are having fun at the carnival as well, queuing up for the rides and playing the games. They'll ignore you for now, but they're not the only ones you have to worry about. Here and there, you may catch glimpses of hideous, mutated drones...and they don't seem very happy to see you.

[The woman bends at an unnatural angle to avoid the staff. She tries to sweep Tir's feet out from underneath him and then go in for an attempted kill.]

[ Beatrice, perhaps unexpectedly, catches that from the bottom of her eyes, and shoves Tir out of the way.

Didn't it seem like he was friends with Lion? Otherwise, he was a stranger ]

Beatrice-san...! [Lion doesn't fail to notice what Beato just did, but that means both she and Tir are in danger. And as foolhardy as it may be, he simply can't just leave them there so that faceless clown can do who knows what to them.

So, in a move that he knows he's going to regret in some way or another, he picks up a knife that's fallen to the ground and throws it, hoping to distract the monster.]

-He thought they were both being stupid. But really, it doesn't matter in the end. The Rune was going to act for him.

From his right hand seeped its power. Inky, black, fingertips of the otherworld stretched out, finding the throat of the creature, and proceeding to choke the life from it, or anything resembling life anyways.-

Keep moving! -Don't watch it, Lion... please...-

[The drone twitches as it chokes. Finally crashing to the ground and leaving the way ahead clear.]

[The memento has been found. The carnival is about to get a lot more dangerous.]
