Kinko Konudrum

Black Kinko with Butterfly wings notices us following them and we give chase.
 
Alya tries to levitate the Kinko, but it fizzles in her hand. Kids nearly run into her, but she dodges around.
Pips jumps over, gaining ground, casting Fog Cloud and hampering its movement. Nat 20 on a dodge action avoids further trouble for Pips
Rob encourages Pips for doing such a great job. ( Bardic Inspo ) and runs 50 feet towards them.
Violet moves 60 ft forward and trying to intercept the Kinko
Petra also tries to run up too, but a donut cart impedes her progress by 30 ft
Ejike catches up, but is put to sleep by the birb and it escapes Violets grasps.
Alya and Pips keep trying to grapple him, just barely missing, but Rob grabs her.
 
Prismere.
The Kinko says the circus is not what it seems. Also is asking if we are working with the Hourglass Coven???
 
Rob persuades her to speak to us, and we go twoards a centuar statute area.
 
Kettlestream the Kinko
 
Pact with Zybilna . Archfaye that rules Prismere. This is supposed to be her carnival.
Mr. Witch and Mr. Light won't tell her how to get there.
So Kettlestream wants to ruin the carnival until she gets what she wants.
 
Kettlestream is also using the Mime's voice, who will give it to us, if we Promise to go to Prismere.
 
We try to sneak in, but get caught and brought directly to Mr. Light/Mr. Witch.
Birthday tokens given to Alya and Petra
Tea given, tea drink, and we were escorted out of the staffing area.
Pixie Kingdom, Bubble Pop, Carousel, Dragonfly, Mystery Minds, Gondola Swans
 
Thaco makes us balloon animals and shapes. Except for Pips, cause why would he need one? A Sword, a Belt, a Pseudo Dragon, a Giraffe, and a Horse.
 
Burly did tell us something is going wrong with the carnival. Mr. Light and Mr. Witch are innocent in this, but says they need to be persuaded to help. Like stealing the watch from Mr. Witch
 
There's a plan to steal the watch, perhaps during the Big Top or the Crowning. That's the only time Light and Witch are not near each other.
We talked to CandleLight, who is ecstatic for having his voice now and proposed immediately. So now we need his help.
 
We'd have to distract Thaco, get close to Mr. Witch, steal the watch without being noticed.
 
In the meantime, EJ and Rob take a Europhia cookie. and we head to the Pixie Kingdom
 
Blackberry wine
 
Polops, Crinklefeathers, Dimple, Jellybean
Hamster, palace of Coocoons, pixie cottages, huge feerris wheel. We play hide and seek, and get some pixie dust. Puddlemud gives us a tour of the castle and we grow big again when we leave.
We head to the North to get some cake, but EJ notices a frogman stealing something from a man without wings eating alone. We kill the thing and the man runs away. No panic ensues.
 
During the Witchlight Monarch ceremony, Alya is crowned and brought to the center of the big tent. Alya is given the crown, now to be known as the Custard Queen. Then we big the dinner with the Light/Witch
 
They won the carnival in a card game from the Shadowfell. They told us that it was originally created by Zybilna from Persmere. Everything they do is for the good of the carnival, because they don't want to lose it. They are also clearly holding something back, but we can't broach the subject.
 
We leave the dinner and Violet starts a new Deal to get a fresh ticket. Now Violet must compliment everyone she meets.
 
As we walk away from the carnival, we are covered in a fog and separate on different paths home...
