Drome: A road, a course, a racing theater

The Circus is the reflection of the first city. The center of the circus is the carousel, a mockery of the city’s aureum and the tree. The center of the carousel is a twisted metal pole, plastered, resembling some denuded autumn tree.

Mr. Ray Mundy (Raymond E., Ramón Dee) doesn’t need to buy souls: everyone wants to give them away. Pride (“I’m the best that ever was”) is his hook, as is insecurity—often two sides of the same coin. The Autumnal Swarm pupate inside sentient beings. As they pupate, they can make the lame walk, the weak strong, the old young, and everyone beautiful and above average. They will offer potential hosts this trade: for all their narcissistic wishes come true they need only host a young and beautiful pupa. They, indeed, are pupa themselves, waiting to burst out of their shells and be loved.
