The kobold escorted them to a front row seat of the entire situation.  There was the 'lion tamer' that was one of the various creatures in the place.  It looked like a half-demon, but it was truly a gorgeous sight to behold.  Many women in the place were fanning themselves, commenting on him.  Even to Liz, he was a beautiful man, even if he had batlike wings, black skin.  The sheer charisma that surrounded him was astounding.  Then there was the panther.  Solid black, three sets of legs, and tentacles flailing from the shoulders of it.  It could almost pass for a kin to Xyveris, perhaps.<br/><br/>The show started simply enough.  Doing little 'tricks' and the like.  The beast leapt through flaming rings of fire, sat on its haunches, begged, and things like that.  But it, like the half-demon, were always looking at her from time to time.  When the beast roared, everyone in the tent jumped in fright.  It was terrifying!
