Places of Interest
St.Calenda's Wandering Pageant, Odeum & Lunar Fair is made up of numerous locations, great and small, that make up the warp and weft of not only the day-to-day entertainments, but of the behind the scenes pageant members lives, loves and tribulations. The pageant comprises seventy odd wagons and half as many tents, but only twenty or so seem to have enough significance to count as landmarks in the nebulous night-scape of this traveling circus. Many of the locales serve as focal points for pageant-goers and pageant-folk alike.
- -- Tent of Dionysus -- This tent is the central meeting point for pageant-folk and pageant-goers, a place of refuge that is both commissary and watering-hole, but it is also the axis around which the pageant community revolves.
