Samenvatting:

The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. The black sign, painted in white letters that hangs upon the gates, reads:



Opens at Nightfall



Closes at Dawn







As the sun disappears beyond the horizon, all over the tents small lights begin to flicker, as though the entirety of the circus is covered in particularly bright fireflies. When the tents are all aglow, sparkling against the night sky, the sign appears.



Le Cirque des Rêves



The Circus of Dreams.







Now the circus is open.



Now you may enter.
