[PUBLIC CHANNEL] RINGMASTER'S EIGHTH ADDRESS (D30)

[Around the start of the new performance week, the Ringmaster will light up everyone's radios with an important message. Or, rather, some important musing.]

Hello, this is the Ringmaster speaking. I say that for the benefit of any new arrivals - everyone else surely recognizes my voice, by now. The rest of this may leave you in the dust as it will be touching on some carnival history, but you can may questions if you want to get up to date.

So, I spent a lot of time thinking when the lot of you were busy with that Pillar drama. As most are aware, a couple months ago we went on a mission to retrieve an extremely powerful artifact called the Blue Rose, which we have been using to defend the carnival from faerie threats. Which, seems successful so far, given that Nightshade didn't dare enter the grounds the entire time we were there! A victory, indeed.

It got me thinking, though... the Blue Rose actually comes as a set. As I've explained to a few of you, the Blue Rose is an organism created by the first Queens of Arcadia. Only three artifacts of its kind exist, as far as I know, and I fairly sure that none of them are actually in faerie hands.

So, I thought... what if we were somehow able to get the other two? Not only would that be enough to ward off the Courts completely, it would go a long way to defending us against any of the other nonsense we come across! Perhaps we could even go back to business as usual, for a while...

Anyway, in an attempt to be more forthcoming, I am presenting this idea to you for general 'work shopping' purposes. I know that the Blue Rose was a big hassle to get, but we know so much more now than we did then! I think it's worth a second look.

[Syrlya definitely notices that question going unanswered.] You will not be the onlt one in desperate enough to risk everything for that power--or to put an end to it.

Before we make any plans for pursuing them, we should learn more about what and where they are.

Are you worried having the other two will give one of the Courts the ability to kill you? [That's pretty fair, though he wonders if they wouldn't already be able to if that's how they decide to allot their resources. Not that he believes in trying to obliterate a while group of people out if preemption.]

[On the other end of the radio, Syrlya is firmly pinching the bridge of his nose.]

I see. If there is any attempt to locate or retrieve either of those artifacts, then I will assist.

[He's still skeptical of the results once they actually have them, but if the carnival is going to get on board for them anyway he wants to be as aware and involved as possible.]
