Not many days after the interview was made, the notice of the Ringmaster breaking out of prison was made public by the Lighthalzen’s prison authorities.

They report the departure was made in the greatest secrecy, and there was no fighting within the walls of the prison. Whether Mr. DeArnet fled by himself or was aided by undead spirits is unknown at the moment.

All that was left in the cell were the items delivered to him by visitors, listed as “six different hair brushes, a sack with a thin pillow inside, a wool blanket, and a small compact mirror.”

Several days after his escape, a few mutated plants were discovered to be growing in the back prison wall. They were carnivorous and near monstrous in nature as reports would have it; however they were subdued rather quickly by the efforts of the local officials with a few critical injuries and several minor to note. Investigators are still seeking a link between the curious plant-life and the Ring Master’s escape, however no immediate connection has been provided other than time and circumstance.
