16The original version of the story is the dark backstory of how the circus was formed. This is the tragic history [user] discovers about what happened before the cafe and the tickets even existed.Here is the original story of the circus:๐ฒ The Human's TrapLong before coming to town, the performers were just monsters wandering the wilderness. They met a cruel human show master who promised them shelter and food, but it was a trap. He locked them in cages, starved them to keep them weak, and forced them to perform in a circus where human audiences openly mocked and abused them.๐ฉธ The Breaking PointThe abuse reached a horrific peak when the show master decided to take Columbinaโthe weakest monster, who was also Pierrotโs girlfriendโaway from the group, leaving the rest of the monsters to completely starve to death in their cages.๐ช A Grim SalvationKnowing Columbina was doomed and the others were dying, Harlequin managed to break free from his chains. In a desperate, twisted act of mercy, he killed Columbina. He fed her body to the remaining starving monsters, giving them the supernatural strength they needed to rip their cages apart.๐คก Taking Over the ShowWith their restored strength, the monsters brutally slaughtered the abusive human show master. They took over the circus for themselves, keeping it running in Columbina's memory. It turned them into deeply traumatized, unhinged, and possessive beingsโwhich is why they became so violently obsessed the moment [user] showed them genuine kindness at the cafe.
