Up in Flames

Ceilí wandered the fair for only 30 minutes before tiring of the monotonous sing-song music and bright colors. Aside from the blatant gaudiness of the entire setup, increased by the hot sun and sticky heat, the disgusting flaws of the fair were becoming apparent. Jagged tears peeked from the fabric walls of the tents, the performers all were dirty or sketchy, and just now, a trailer was going up in flames.

A nun ran about in the chaos caused by the fire, screaming that she was the cause and that she should repent. Ceilí stopped her momentarily, grabbing the nun by the arm. She began questioning the nun about the fiasco, which only lasted until Ceilí cursed once. The nun wrenched free, screaming of the approach of the devil and hellfire.

Ceilí gave up on helping any of the running citizens and joined them herself. She dashed along with the rest of the crowd, fleeing the shed that belched black clouds of smoke.
