[There is a white-haired kid wandering around in an aimless manner. He goes from landmark to landmark before getting distracted by the next thing that catches his eye and goes trotting off in new direction. If you didn't know any better, you'd think he'd never seen a wheat field before. Or a barn. Or a log cabin. Or almost anything in camp. Once in

Perhaps . . .

Were you looking for something here?

[soundsinthenait]

I was looking for Circus!

[runstowardsfire]

An actual circus or a place called Circus?

[soundsinthenait]

Um, well. They live on a big ship and fight scary people, but also put on shows and give out candy.

[runstowardsfire]

It sounds like a very different sort of circus--the fighting part, I mean.

[soundsinthenait]

Circus is supposed to protect people! Yours doesn't?

[runstowardsfire]

No--the circuses at home are mostly for entertainment.

[soundsinthenait]

But then who protects you?

[runstowardsfire]

Witches protect others. And there are others who do that too--like wizards and law enforcement officials.

[soundsinthenait]

What's a witch like?

[runstowardsfire]

A witch helps people and takes care of a certain place.

[soundsinthenait]

That's a lot like Circus then!

[runstowardsfire]

I imagine there are people like that in most worlds.

[soundsinthenait]

I guess it's hard if you don't have someone to look after you.

[runstowardsfire]

I suppose so. But they can't do everything.
