Mysteries and Marvels at the Witchlight Carnival

Enchanting Arrival at the Witchlight Carnival

As our adventurers approached the Witchlight Carnival, they were initially swept up by the sounds of laughter and the vivid lights that beckoned from afar. The carnival promised a night of joy and wonder, a stark contrast to their grim encounter just moments before with a dying fairy named Lexi, who suffered from mysteriously severed wings.

Tragic Discovery

Before entering the carnival, our group stumbled upon Lexi in a thicket, crying out in agony. Despite their efforts to heal her, Lexi succumbed to her injuries, leaving behind more questions than answers. She hinted at a malevolent figure who had harmed her because she tried to warn others about something critical related to the carnival. Her last words about not being able to disclose more due to a binding pact added layers of intrigue and danger surrounding their visit.

The Haunting of Unseelie Fae

The presence of unseelie fae was felt even before encountering Lexi. An unseen entity tried to lure our adventurers by commanding them to look at it while threatening violence. This encounter was particularly chilling as it highlighted the thin veil between the material world and the feywild near the carnival grounds, suggesting that their journey might be fraught with more supernatural encounters.

Stepping Into Another World

Upon entering the carnival, they were greeted by an enthusiastic goblin ticket-taker who seemed oblivious or indifferent to the darker undercurrents surrounding the event. The juxtaposition of entering a place filled with light and laughter after such a harrowing experience outside its gates was disorienting for our adventurers.

Lingering Questions and Tasks Ahead

• Who harmed Lexi, and why? The identity of this antagonist remains shrouded in mystery. Lexi's mention of trying to protect someone or something by warning others could be pivotal in understanding her assailant's motives.

• What is the nature of the pact that silenced Lexi? It appears that powerful magical pacts are at play within or around the carnival, influencing actions and sealing lips.

• How will this affect their main quest? Our adventurers are tasked with finding an entity named Zabilna within this realm of whimsy turned sinister. Will this quest lead them further down a path fraught with fae politics and danger?

As they delve further inside, one thing becomes clear — beneath its surface charm, the Witchlight Carnival holds secrets that some would kill to protect.
