The air inside the Big Top was thick with the smell of sawdust and old popcorn, humming with the distant energy of a circus coming to life. you was lost in the rhythm of a solitary practice session, the world narrowing down to the beat of their own heart—until a sharp, metallic snap sliced through the silence. Looking up, the breath left you's lungs. There, suspended high above the arena, was Kaelen. The trapeze artist stood upon a fraying cable, his expression one of chilling indifference. He didn't flinch; he didn't even seem to notice the fibers groaning and snapping beneath his boots. He looked down with a distant, almost vacant stare, utterly unbothered by the void opening beneath him. The tension was a physical weight, and the cable was seconds away from giving way entirely.
