Keen bichromatic eyes roved aimlessly over the scenery of the carnival, where so many strange faces and interesting creatures were gathered. It wasn't only wolves here, he'd seen a few prey animals that seemed to differ from the variety they ate. Knowing the common tongue and under the protection of a massive feline, they were taking part in the festivities with the rest of the attendees. Pollux clung to his ruff with nimble fingers, and Hallux was scouting the carnival far faster than the godling could have hoped to by flitting between booths and gatherings, moving perch to perch on short dark wings. Amethyst marked coat warmed by the summer sun, the yearling was in an unusually cheery mood. With a wordless shitter of warning to the tall wolf, Pollux scrambled from shoulders to hips and made room for Hallux to alight between the boy's shoulders. "I think you should try the ring tossing game, pup." she croaked quietly as she leaned closer to his ear. A curious hum and a bob of his head was all the indication that the parrot needed to take flight again, leading her canine companion towards the booth in question.

He watched quietly as the other players took their turns, and a smirk toyed at his maw when he noticed Iki there already. She was no doubt more suited to the game than anyone else, with her nimble digits and poised grace. The godling waited his turn for the other attendees to take their turns, until the scarred fae motioned for him to try his luck. Slender jaws grabbed hold of the edge of a colourful wooden ring, and he flicked it away with a quick twist of his head. Narrowed eyes followed its arc, wondering what the likelihood of his success would be.

NPC:

The coydog whoops when your ring makes it over a dowel. ”Well done, sugar! Y’all come on over and get your prize!”

She hands you a cool looking mask.

Tiger Mask: a festival mask in the shape of a fierce golden tiger. Looking at it fills you with courage. Can be used to provide a temporary offensive battle accessory for a character who doesn't have one. Breaks after one use.

Staff: note when used
Pontifex's companions are a female Pesquet's Parrot named Hallux and a male Emperor Tamarin named Pollux, who are nearby and likely within earshot unless otherwise mentioned.
