Cirque Du Massacre

Disaster / Destruction

The final show of the esteemed Astor Tremeldan, with a more explosive finale than usual being provided by a cultist ambush.

On the outskirts of the Pelorian city of Iograd, the Tremeldan Circus prepared for their final show before moving on towards Peloria City. To begin the show, Astor Tremeldan himself appeared on stage with a flourish of fire and glamour to address the audience and conduct the circus. Trapeze artists began hurling through the air above the crowds, to applause and cheers, before being interrupted by an explosion of dark energy centred on Astor. There was a lingering moment of confusion among the common people of Iograd. Was this planned? Then the first screams broke the silence, as the perceptive folk within the crowd saw the charred remains of the entire front row.   By a stroke of luck, the audience of that show contained several budding adventurers who quickly leapt into action. Through a canny use of fog clouds and martial prowess, the adventurers were able to dispatch the cultist ambushers and guide the crowd safely out of the tent. As the battle came to a close, it was clear that this was the end of Astor Tremeldan.
