You decide Pervus would be a better choice. Probably not the safest, but he's more likely to help you.

You're hesitant to go anywhere near the clown tent to get him though, however for once luck is with you and you see him around the animals talking to a horse.

"Hmmm, yeah. You're a pretty filly. Yes you are. Let me tell you what I'm gonna do…(sniff) you smell different than usual." Pervus then turns around. "Oh it's you Geek. What the fuck do you want? Can't you see I'm with a lady?"
"Hey um, Pervus I need your help with something."
"Oh do ya now?"
"I need to borrow a black book from Madam Orbec, and I need you to distract her."
"Hmm, normally I wouldn't help you do shit, but I'm kinda in the mood for some OLD pussy right now. Yeah I'll distract her, I know exactly how to distract her." Pervus say while stoking his crotch.
"Um hold on, you're not gonna rape and kill her are ya?"
"I won't kill her…oh fine I won't rape her either. Probably won't be necessary anyway, I've always had a way with the ladies…sorry old girl, but I'll have to be fucking you some other time." Pervus remarks and pats the horse on the head before following you.

You both approach Madam Orbec's tent which has an air of creepiness about it. Pervus has a look of crazed lust in his eyes. He's starting to breathe heavily and doing a lot of slurping.

"Oh fuck yeah, this is gonna be soooooooo good."

He said he wasn't going to do anything excessive, but now you're not so sure…

You change the plan

"Hold on Pervus. I got a better idea." You say stopping Pervus from entering.
"Geek, that's the second time you've interrupted my dick from finding happiness. If you do it again, it's gonna find happiness in YOU!"
"Um…well look, I was just thinking that it would be better if you got the book, I dunno if I'm up for it. I'll distract Madam Orbec instead."
"The ONLY reason why I agreed to this, was because of the possibility of getting some Granny pussy, and now you're fuckin' sayin' no? Fuck you Geek! I'm doin' this shit now!"

Pervus knocks you to the ground and enters Madam Orbec's tent. You begin to hear some weird noises. Some of it sounds like screams, but not of the human kind. You sit in shock unsure of what to do, and then soon Pervus comes back out with the black book. There's blood all over his clown costume.

"I'm not sure what the fuck you wanted this for, but you ain't gettin' it now Geek. See ya at show time."

You don't want to check, but you do anyway. You go inside Madam Orbec's tent and see a gruesome sight. Something else is here though. You feel a force hit you several times. You see sheer depravity in your mind! It overwhelms you, you begin to cry, and laugh at the same time. You immediately run back out to hide somewhere utterly mad from what you saw.

You run off to the nearest town hoping nobody comes looking for you, and nobody does due to what happens at show time…

With the black book in his possession, Pervus goes back to his own tent and begins reading it, wondering what you wanted it for. Soon he begins to discover the power contained inside. The reason why Madam Orbec never wanted Randal to use it is due to the evil contained within and didn't want that evil unleashed lest it destroy him. Of course Pervus isn't a choir boy like Randal, he embraces the evil and the evil embraces him. It's a match made in hell.

When show time comes around he and his whole degenerate clown crew begin chanting from the book unleashing horrible powers. Many in the audience are killed as they attempt to escape, the Ring Master attempts to restore order, but with one utterance by Pervus, a burning black light annihilates her. The next blast destroys Atlas.

Randle attempts some sort of cheap magic defense, but he's powerless against the sheer destruction Pervus is wreaking. Eventually some of the clowns surround and capture him and do unspeakable things to him until he's literally an empty husk.

Charley and Ajax attempt to escape, but are run down and torn apart by strange shadow creatures that were summoned up.

The ones that manage to survive that terrible night become part of this twisted new Carnival that now travels the night seeking to pull more victims into its dreaded den of wickedness and suck their souls dry, with Pervus as the new crazed ring master.

And while you weren't there for the event, you SAW it all, in your mind back at Madam Orbec's tent. One last curse by the spirits for your involvement in the death of Madam Orbec.

You are doomed to forever see the on going horrors committed by Pervus' Carnival, and yet can do nothing about it. You're eventually picked up off the street while during one of your screaming jags and thrown into a mental asylum, straight jacked and doped up with morphine.

But it doesn't help.

You still see.

And you can't stop the screaming.
