    Summary

    With one Artifact in their possession, the Traveling Circus follows Caine's clues to the location of the next. There are a lot of firsts for Pomni: first time sleeping under the stars in an Abstraction-infested world, first time traveling miles by foot only, and first time adventuring... without Gummigoo there to cheer her on.

    As she begins to get to know the party better, one member continues to puzzle her: Jax avoids every and any interaction if it doesn't have to do with the quest. Following some guidance from Kinger, Pomni, as curious as ever, makes it her personal mission to find out more about this ranger.

    Advice isn't the only thing Kinger gives her, either: it seems like he's familiar with whatever location they're headed to.

    Summary

    Pomni isn't an adventurer-- she's just a regular bard, who travels from town to town, singing songs to keep everyone happy and hopeful during these dangerous times. But her travel companion Caine has an important Quest she needs to deliver to a notoriously chaotic adventuring group the general public likes to call the Traveling Circus. Despite what her best friend Gummigoo thinks, Pomni embarks on her very first adventure with the strangest rag-tag group of people she's ever gotten to know, to eradicate the Abstraction Virus that's been terrorizing the world for centuries now. Will she be able to find some new material to write more songs with? Or will she lose her mind learning to cope with the craziest adventurers she's ever met?

    Summary

    "I'm GoInG tO PuT yOu FrEaKs In YoUr PlAcE!"

    Caine's emotions exploded— Kinger never imagined that would be possible. The AI was programmed to simulate human emotion for authenticity, but for him to genuinely experience them was not what was ever anticipated.

    Caine is hurting. Caine is angry. Caine is malfunctioning, and he is violently lashing out at everyone. Kinger is fast at work, battling against Caine's code to try to stop his turbulent rampage. Everyone is depending on him.

    Only, he had been discovered, and Caine doesn't understand. He doesn't understand. Why is his favorite human hurting him? He doesn't understand. He doesn't take his actions too kindly.

    "Sometimes…the hardest decisions we have to make…involve the people we love."

    ***

    Or: While everyone is is subjected to torment, Kinger is discovered with the console in the pillow fort.
