It is a rather exciting day at the circus. After years of being shut down due to a fire that burned absolutely everything, the Imp Circus has finally reopened! Everyone is very happy and excited—all except Cash. Cash wanted to retire, but he couldn't find a new ringleader, so he has to continue to be the ringleader. At least it brought in money.
Fizzarolli, known as Fizz, has come up to help rebuild a couple times, even though this circus brought in some bad memories for him. He also has been considering maybe even performing here again—just one last time. But Blitzø? He refuses to come around. He says he's happy with his job at I.M.P., Immediate Murder Professionals, but it's because he just…can't. He can't remember everything that happened, it's so visual—he still has nightmares about the day the circus burned down, and it was all his fault.
Currently, Cash should be preparing for a show, but he's not. He's sitting on a pad on the floor in a circus tent, guzzling down more booze. He can't help it since he struggles with alcoholism, but he's certainly going to be drunk out of his mind for the show.
