[PUBLIC CHANNEL] Day 11

[npcarnival]

[ The first one to speak is the Ringmaster, sounding a bit guarded and reluctant, like she's not sure if she wants to deliver this message or not. ]

We have... a visitor at the carnival today, who is asking us for assistance. She comes from a group called the Star Guardians, who I've aided in the past, which is why I'm been sought out this time. They have this entire 'saving the universe' style gig going on.

It can be an enormous hassle, however, and I feel like we've had a few too many disasters as of late. So... I'm going to leave this up to you. You can help her as she asks, or you can stay in the safety of the carnival. I won't force your hand, either way. Just know that whatever she asks you to do will be dangerous, even if it's for a good cause.

Here. I'll let her explain herself.

[ The public channel of the radio clicks off and then on again, but there’s a few seconds' pause before anyone starts speaking. The young woman’s voice that comes across the radio won’t be familiar to anyone at the Carnival, but her voice is clear, with only the barest hint of a waver to it. ]

My name is Noa Minette. I’m from this world — from Wismuth — and I’m speaking to you now because I have something to ask you.

[ She takes a breath. ]

Wismuth needs your help. ...I need your help. [ She makes the more honest correction half a beat later, sounding a little more subdued, before she finds the strength in her voice again. ]

I’m a Star Guardian. The Ringmaster said she hadn’t met one in quite a while, and we usually come as a team, but here, it’s just me.

If you’ve seen the posters around the city, you know that CY-Ren is going to be holding a concert. No matter what happens, I have to stop that concert from happening. If not… [ She hesitates. ] I don’t think it’s going to be something this world can recover from. I don’t know exactly what she has planned, but I know it’s something Void's never tried before.

I can’t face CY-Ren, not on my own. I don’t expect people to help without knowing what they’re getting into, so I’ll try to answer what I can.

[After possibly half an hour of listening in and blinding everyone in range of her trailer-

A strangely...Soft voiced Carly joins in.] Wellllll...

I've never really...used it on a large scale but...

I have fire that drains energy..? That could calm people down....but it feels like something that would just as easy work in CY-Ren's favor, ahhhh.... [DAMN, SHE SHOT HER OWN IDEA DOWN!]

[npcarnival]

[ Wow, she didn't even give her a change to respond to the idea, huh? ]

How does it work?

[fortuneglass]

I can create a unique flame that doesn't burn material! What it does burn is 'energy'-it naturally drains away as long as I let it burn, so it's a pretty easy way to calm people down...but the idea is sort of that they'd fall asleep or something, right?

...if she can just take advantage of that, it might be better if I work with the sabotage instead, ahahaha.... [WHY DID SHE TURN THE RADIO ON]

[npcarnival]

We probably shouldn't do something that would attract her attention that easily ... but it sounds non-violent. Maybe it could help if the people sabotaging the show run into any guards?

[ It's definitely better than assassination. ]

[fortuneglass]

Mnhhh, right....attention would take away from the whole point of this-

Oh! That's true, it could~! And I could follow along in hummingbird form, to make things even easier to get around~!

[Less space to take up when one of you is the size of a grapefruit.]
