The dimension of the carnival itself is a near featureless plain, full of their belongings in piles where the trailers and various buildings once stood, and the various pets are just waking up from stasis. There's some final planning to do, an an offer of power for (nearly) everyone to consider. A lot of weight over their heads.

At least there's plenty of potatoes and onions to eat, probably.
