The Entrance to the Circus~
	Ahead you see the Circus laid out in all its glory.  Freak shows, 
games booths, and dwarfing them all, the Big Top.  A ticket booth is set here.
You will need a ticket to enter the Big Top.

Big Top.  They seem annoyed at you as you push your way past them.  To the

Mayor and City council.  He makes it a point to let you know that he knows 
you are there, and he is ignoring you on purpose.

be amazed by the midget's feats of acrobatics, and be dazzled by the great
magical powers of the Illusionist.

stage up front.  You hear the stage creak as you enter, and you understand

Very big.  Colosally huge.  You don't seem to have any problem finding a seat.

	This tent is darkened at first.  Then it gradually lightens, although
you do not see the source of the light.  You do hear a loud breathing sound
though.  You think it may be coming from right behind you.  You think this 
because you can feel very warm breath on the back of your neck.  You turn,
and see a very large, very evil looking creature.  It's a Dragon.  It opens 
its mouth, but does not attack.  Instead it just laughs at you mercilessly.
The Dragon snorts a cloud of smoke at you.

right after the Circus came to town.  Wouldn't suprise me if he is the one

First Look at the Big Top~
	You recieve your first good look at the Big Top.  The size of this
tent was amazing from the outside, but is even more breathtaking from the 
inside.  You feel as if you are in a different world, where the sky is only
a little closer.  You see 3 Rings spread out in front of you.  A high wire
extends between poles at a dizzying height.  The 1st Ring appears to hold
a cage which contains several large lions.  The 2nd Ring is filled with clowns
who are trying to fit into a small carriage.  In the 3rd Ring, a man is 
preparing to put on a blind fold, while his assistant stands against a target.
He has a rack of knives next to him.  You may enter the 2nd Ring to the south.
To the east and west are the Grand Stands, and the Entryway is to the north.

The 2nd Ring - You'd better read the description of this room. ~ 
	You are in the 2nd Ring.  You see a rickity carriage, which a line of
clowns are trying to squeeze into.  You've already seen many more fit into it
than could possibly fit.  The 1st Ring is to the west and the 3rd Ring is 
to the east.  A ladder on a pole here provides access to the tightrope above.
To the north is the first look a visitor to the Big Top has.  You notice that 
the 1st ring is a cage which contains several HUNGRY Lions.  Entering it would
be fairly suicidal.  It is a good thing it is locked!

Cage.  If you survived the fall, YOU WOULD SURELY DIE when the Lions got ahold
of you.  You note that the door is closed to the cage, so you would have very
little chance of running away if you did fall into the cage.  As you take
your eyes off the ground below, you see the end of the wire immediately to

	the Bear.  Feel free to enter his cage and pet him.

Penned underneath this is a note that says:  Beware the Bear!!!  

You may enter the Elephant Pen to the west, the Bear Pen to the south, or

Freaks.  But that doesn't bother him.  He has a second profession that he
practices on the side to make a little extra cash.  He also keeps a rather

all the objects in the room have a slight shimmer to them.  Closer examination
reveals that the bed is a cot, the table a nightstand, and the sitting room
is a chair.  It appears the Illusionist tries to fool even himself sometimes.
