Who: Diana Croft and Elia Rousseau What: Welcome! When May 15th, Early afternoon Where: Ticket Booth area Rating:PG-13 for cursing and maybe some violence description?
Diana stared up at the ticket booth. Everything looked so… ordinary; too ordinary to be the place her mentor had sent her. How could this place hold back something as terrible as Seth? Surely his magic would just tear this place apart!
“Unless he had a heart attack after eating everything on the midway…” She huffed as she kicked at the dirt in frustration.

Her familiar, Beau the owl, had even dropped off some fresh lavender and chamomile for tea. Now they all were dead because of her.
