[as if letting go of a trapeze, a young blonde comes flying from the sky, twirling her body through the air. At a certain point during these flips, her back arches, and a pair of golden phoenix wings appear. She opens her eyes and reaches out...
Only to see that the trapeze she was aiming for has disappeared. To cover her mistake, she flips a couple more times before she lands lightly on the ground, her wings having slowed her fall, and grins, giving one last, finishing pose for her audience.
That smile falls away as soon as she realizes that she's not inside a dark circus tent, but outside of it, and instead of the awed crowd that was watching her only minutes before, there are only one or two people passing by, maybe some out of her sight staring.
Which wouldn't be surprising, considering the way she's dressed. She's in a performer's costume - one of a tight white bodysuit with sparkling golden, intricate designs sewn into it. The shoulders are showing, and if one were to look at her right shoulder, they'd see a golden
tattoo. The makeup she wears is limited, but enough to let her facial features stand out to a crowd shrouded in darkness. And instead of the usual bun on the side of her head, her hair is tied back in a loose braid to keep it out of her way during her performance.
Now that she realizes that she's not where she used to be, she quickly gets out of her stance and looks around.]
Where... Where am I?
