Event 02 - Dance of the Hydrangeas

With the new areas actively in place, new challenges appeared. Similar to what had occurred before, some creatures from these new areas suddenly turned aggressive. Many will not venture outside their own terrains, but monster run-ins had now become a common occurrence and, unfortunately, a part of life. The gods worried little about the matter. Their hatchlings were no longer babes. They had become strong, forged by the obstacles they’d overcome. Life went on with very little change. Things had become content. Nevertheless, the gods were restless. The calm before the storm, they forebode with unease.

On a random day, a commotion could be heard coming from the entrance of the OneWay Station. Jovial music filled the air as a band of masked creatures pranced around to advertise their arrival. Laughter and hoots of cheer ringed the colorful caravans in front of the station. It appeared the circus has come to Aetherin, bringing with it intriguing performers!

The music died down as the performers stilled. Their attention turned to the center of their camp. A lone figure appeared on top of a pillar of flowers, complete with thorns. She stood tall and proud, regal in her stance and wickedness apparently in her coy smile. “I am Hydra,” she said in a strong melodic voice, “the Ringmaster of the Hydrangea Circus.” With a flourish, she threw her arms up in the air, causing thousands of glowing petals to appear out of nowhere and rain down upon the crowd.  

“Welcome to my show.”

➠ Ira - Windy Commons: Lv 2 Monsters

Monster Specifications
★; Flaggan

➥ A flag insect monster. Flaggan can create gusts of wind with their flag-like 'wings'. The patterns on them are distinct, and different for every Flaggan. As circus performers, they enjoy strutting around displaying their colours, and doing levitating tricks for light objects.

★; Lamunny

➥ A sheep bunny monster. Lamunny are shy creatures and tend to keep away from sprite touch (they are, however, quite fluffy). With a fierce hop, Lamunny performers are good at leaping through hoops. Their fur, after the aether draining substance is removed, is also used for bedding.

➠ Tere - Honey Forest: Lv 2 Monsters

Monster Specifications
✿; Fetgris

➥ An earth pig monster. Fetgris love the dirt and spend plenty of time rolling in it; thus hating hard, rock areas, and water (it cannot swim in deep water). It is quite a feat to stick one's head into a Fetgris jaw and pull it out intact-! Brave sprites may try this on the Fetgris performers...

✿; Mace Bee

➥ A bee monster. The mace bee cannot fly, so it rolls from place to place to reach its destination. Mace bee performers can make interesting patterns and illustrations with their spikes in the dirt (by rolling around). With a little hop, three mace bees can almost do a juggling act!

➠ Esa - Sunshine Lagoon: Lv 2 Monsters

Monster Specifications
☂; Sango

➥ A coral axolotl monster. Sango like to travel in numbers and have different colourations depending on what geneder they are. Generally friendly, Sango performers are very good at synchronized swimming acts and general team-based displays (ie. sango stack tower..!).

☂; Skalldyr

➥ A hermit crab monster. Skalldyr are coloured very vibrantly and are usually found underwater, though the circus' Skalldyr are nimble on land as well. Beautiful bubble blast displays together with excitable sidesteps make this critter the circus' band of jolly clowns.

➠ Vaal - Char Canyon: Lv 2 Monsters

Monster Specifications
☼; Auritus

➥ A bat monster. Rarely seen in broad daylight, an Auritus will spend a majority of their life in the dark damp caves lining the walls of Char Canyon. When they are forced to venture out, they do so during the night and travel in hoards. Auritus performers are very good at controlling their cries to form chords pleasing to sprite ears.

☼; Vulpini

➥ A fox monster. Vulipinis are cautious and very protective of their kits. When they are not hunting in packs, they are found near lava banks. The circus' Vulpini are (unsurprisingly) the fire show, able to do brilliant tricks with powerful blasts of red flame.
