**Mrs Plenty's Carnival...**

The time is now 04:58 UTC. Regardless, you made it in time.

## Distracting

> *"It's hard to be sure, sometimes, exactly what's real. Perhaps you only imagined that little ritual. Perhaps you'd have arrived on time in any case. Perhaps all those secrets were only fog. But here you are."*
>

Mrs Plenty's Carnival is a popular attraction found near Spite in London. *This* may or may not be the same Carnival. Mrs Plenty is the Carnival's owner and namesake; she has duties she could never let go of.

The Carnival's stalls require tickets from customers, purchased with moon-pearls for the price beyond price. Admit one.

It is unclear if this Carnival is even real; it may all be a dream. Regardless, it can be accessed via a ritual or by arriving on time at exactly midnight. But it's a gamble. A single misstep can be most distracting.

## The Big Top

> *"A riot of colour! A sea of sound! A place where polite society's rules relax and a costermonger may rub shoulders with a bishop."*
>
>

The **Big Top** is the grandest tent at the Carnival. It is completely empty. Performing onstage will draw jeers and mockery from no one. All who perform here know this.

## The Sideshows

> *"The ragged little tents around the edges of the carnival. Throw quoits! Bet on the shell game! Get a tattoo! Have your pocket picked five times in an hour!"*
>
>

The **Sideshows** are the less grandiose tents found near the Carnival's outskirts. They feature the Big Rat and the Eater-of-Chains. Neither has much to say.

There is also a fungus-tower here. Further inquiries are welcomed.

## Refreshments

> *"The pavilion is less civilised than it sounds. Some of its wares are surprisingly tasty, if you're brave enough to try them."*
>
>

The **Refreshment Pavilion** offers many interesting foods and drinks. Visitors consume raw meat, fungi, nearby poles, their own memories and limbs...

## Carnival Games

> *"The air thrums with the furtive energy of money changing hands. Games of skill. Games of chance. The occasional thrown lizard snatching a bat from the air. What could be better?"*
>
>

The **Games Tent** hosts many games of both skill and chance. But only one seems to be played here right now. The Red-Handed Queen is in a chess match with the Beleaguered King. A rather long match, mind.

## Above the Neath

> *"You realise that the sign has changed; and that the wheel now ascends into the roof of the cavern, far above the false-stars. It would return you to the Surface, where the sunlight would shrivel you like a slug."*
>
>

**Beneath the Neath** is a partially submerged Ferris wheel that takes passengers into a cavern below the Carnival. *Most* passengers return soon after.

But the sign has changed. Now the ride takes passengers far above, where [REDACTED BY THE MINISTRY OF PUBLIC DECENCY].

## The House of Mirrors

> *"The House of Mirrors squats like an ape in a quiet corner of the carnival. Strange mirrors are labelled in a neat, scholarly hand. It is not a popular attraction."*
>
>

The **House of Mirrors** is an unpopular attraction in an ignored part of the Carnival. It contains many labeled mirrors with unique, often dangerous, properties.

But it is completely dark there now. No mirror can be distinguished from another.

## MADNESS

> *"You can contain many, but not multitudes."*

## DEATH

> *"Once again, you have gone too far."*
