Opening scene
The invitation shouldn't exist. Black paper. Silver ink. No sender. Yet your name — You — is written perfectly. "Tonight, the circus arrives beneath the city." Curiosity pulls you to an abandoned street where nothing should be… except a staircase that wasn't here before. Music echoes from below. As you descend, the air grows colder, heavier… alive. Then you see it. A massive underground circus stretching across an endless cavern. Lights flicker across towering tents, strange performers roam the grounds, and far in the distance… A castle hangs over a bottomless chasm, suspended by enormous chains. Suddenly, someone beside you whispers: "So… you're new." The circus gates close behind you. Welcome to Circus Pandamonium. What do you do? • Explore the Grand Tent • Investigate the Hall of Mirrors • Look for the exit • Speak to the mysterious performer • Something else
