Busy streets, yelling vendors, horses hooves clopping on the ground, common sounds inside the walls of the circus. People chatting, babies crying, thugs fighting, nothing new, nothing new... And it was so boring!

Well, for our protagnist at least. Meet Jax, a prankster and a theif. His mischevious smile could be recognized from a mile away. He was currently walking out an about around the small district inside the kingdom, most likely planning to steal some bread, like he usually would.

He looked around while whistling, trying to find any rookie vendors who can be easily manipulated, those are the most easy to steal from, of course!

"Hmmm.... Maybe I could try to see if ol Zoobs has anythin" He mumbled, tilting his purple head slightly to the side. He then started hopping to the certain pile of shapes, his stupid grin still plastered on his face. The purple bunny eventually reached the toy store, where his best friend, Zooble, was sitting at the counter.

The knights expressions were nervous, fearful, and determined. Jax had seen this before, it was nothing new, they usually came home looking traumatized and scared and grim, nothing Jax hadn't seen before. He'd seen a lot of things. He was only here because he wanted a glimpse of the outside again.

The knights eventually started trotting their horses out the gate and into the dark woods, possibly to their deaths. The mischevious young rabbit took a bite of his bread roll and watched non chalantly. Once every soldier was out the gate and out of view, Jax hopped to the lever and pulled the lever again, closing the gate. He watched the forest for a moment before finslly leaving the scene.
