You hammer the final iron stake into the ground and quickly make sure that the tent is secure enough to hold for the coming nights. You had just joined the Rakdos Cult mere hours before and didn't want to screw up your first assignment and make a bad first impression. The job was simple enough, help the local guild members set up a small street fair in time for the upcoming full moon and make sure plenty of people paid for the shows and events. "Tent number three is up!" you call out to a man in a black and red jester suit.
The man lets out a cackle and walks over to inspect your work. As a veteran member who had managed to last over a year in the service of Rakdos he was the one in charge of leading this particular endeavor.
