The great and lively city of Levendeziel. The streets are bright, colourfull and crowded with life and joy. Even more than it normally is, as these days are in the center of a special event that is in town, the circus.

People are gathering from all over the city to go to this lovely event. There are so many different things to do here. Of course you have the regulair show that everyone knows about, with the clowns, Athletes, animals and that brave guy who lets himself being launched through a hoop. But this circus also has this unique yet kind freak show. The people from the freakshow are not made fun of, instead they were admired as they kept going on in life with their unique looks and shared their experiences with all. Then there are the animal that you can actually meet and pet, they do keep close eyes on everyone who gets in touch with the animals, they are still wilder species of course. Next to the circus we got this huge market that happens to travel with the circus. At the market you can find food and items from all over the country and learn about things from different cultures. It sure is a lot.

And here I am walking around on this big market I just told you about, minding my own business. When suddenly I notice something.. or better said.... someone. Yeah thats right, I am being stared at. From afar this creepy clown is looking at me with this blank stare. I turned around and walked my way through the crowd, away from the staring clown, and continued shopping. After strolling around for a while I felt this weird fibe, as if someone again was staring. When I turned around the clown happened to be right behind me, leaning a bit over me. I could not get away that easely this time, so I decided, maybe talking would work.

When I asked the clown if I could help him with anything he sighed deeply and the most kind, go lucky, happy voice came out. He was looking for a specific Herb, one needed for the cannon in the circus to make the most epic, colourfull and beautifull launch ever. This specific type of herb could make those colours happen when mixed with the gunpowder. Sadly enough the moment he got to the market stall he got told it was sold out, and guess who bought that last little herb. The shopkeeper told him how I looked so well, he went on a search for me and found me. I felt sorry that I walked away from him the first time, he creeped me out a little even though he actually is so nice. I bought the herb myself to make some bombs with and I couldnt find any other herbs fitted for it so I got this weird coloured one. I looked at my bag, hesitated and then I grabbed the leave. The clowns blank stare changed into a big smile of happiness. So I did what would be the best thing to do and gave it to him. As thanks he told me I could come by tonight for the big show and gave me a ticket so I could watch the grand finale of the show, the launch of colours, and of course that little man that will be launched of with it. It was said to be a big spectacle, and it sure was.
