You are now a lowly Commoner (but hopefully a well-dressed one). Think of a muggle from Harry Potter but as a Commoner, you may still learn to wield great power.  But for now, you are devoid of magic and likely…thirsty.  So go get a drink, the first one’s on us. 

As you move through the space, you will see various gaming tables set up for you to win tokens.  You’ll need these tokens throughout the night. 

You’ll recognize these games by sight, but I doubt you’ll be familiar with the rules.  Not to worry, we’ll teach you.  As you play, you’ll accumulate tokens (quite quickly if I had to guess).  Throughout the night, you will be allowed to play at the tables whenever you please.  And good thing because you’ll need lots of them if you want any chance at buying your next rank from The Shopkeeper.

Play the games. Win the games.

Our dearest Shopkeeper (he goes by The Shopkeeper, or just Shopkeeper for short) is a man of particular tastes. In fact, he really only likes one thing, tokens.  Don’t try and give him money, it won’t work.  He only accepts tokens.  Now when you give him tokens, an amazing thing happens- he in return gives you the supplies to complete a magic trick (in accordance with your rank).

You start as a Commoner but you won’t be for long.  As soon as you can get The Shopkeeper to give you the materials for your first trick, you’ll be able to master it and then level up to become an Apprentice. After Apprentice comes Novice. Then Master. Then Merlin.  At each level, you’ll be able to order a wider variety of drinks and enjoy other specialty privileges.  But of course, at each level you’ll need to master a new trick before you can progress.  Good thing professional magicians will also be roaming around doing amazing tricks and helping you.

There will be a myriad of professional magicians roaming throughout the space throughout the night.  It helps to see the tricks done by a well-practiced hand.  You’re encouraged to chat with them.  Also it’s just down-right inspiring to see a Merlin-ish human in action.  It’s kind of like when you see really amazing acrobatic performers in action. Did we mention there will be amazing acrobatic performers?

Yep.  Check them out.  Just part of the night.  Kinda like the fire spinning.  You’ll get to try it a bit if you dare.

Don’t burn yourself. Enjoy life. And remember the fastest drivers wear their seatbelts.

We’ll be doing it right with a giant liquid nitrogen explosion.
