The Tempering Spell

The Tempering Spell is a small spell Isobel performed when the circus first opened as a way of balancing the scales between Marco and Celia. When she finds out that Marco is in love with Celia, Isobel destroys the tempering spell - which had been held together with a tarot card, Marco's bowler hat, and Celia's handkerchief - destroying the circus' delicate balance. After Isobel destroys the spell, a crack in the circus forms, allowing for Chandresh to accidentally kill Herr Thiessen.
