The city's saviors take the form of an angelic mobster, a fire-dancing mermaid musician, and a bookworm Eladrin who can't control her seasons. How many passes will they have to take in order to save the city? Only time can tell.

Conflict breaks out with the Red Hand vampire and gunslinger, Vincent, but the trio eventually makes it to the port. Elijah has a talk with Nevi about his contract, Deli finds a crystal ball, and the group finds out what Ila meant about the doors.
Deli has her song battle with Aria, during which something ominous stirs within the big top tank. Aria answers some questions about the Red Hand, a tightrope walker reveals terrifying secrets about the doors in the circus, and the identity of the being in the tank is revealed. Is the Fate Gang in over their head?

In today's episode, the Ringleader, Atlas, shows his true terrifying colors; a member of the Fate Gang is grievously wounded; Deli sings one of her enchanted songs; and the time has come for the song battle with Aria.
The trio follow Nevi in a montage and Elijah gets a startlingly accurate Tarot reading. They enjoy a few carnival games before running into a mysterious triton Ringleader and things at the circus get... weird.
This holiday special features three guests (Cassi from Chosen Ones, Kirk from We Suck at D&D, and Nikki from Beholder to No One) as we travel back in time 300 years to address the massive rifts opening across Everwyn. The group, hired by the Sky Ministry, is tested by corruption, devilry, and really good books.
The Fate Gang have returned to the day before the world ends. Desdemona does a light arson, Elijah has a hard talk with Detective Amaranth, and Cordelia challenges Aria to a song battle at the start of their journey through the Circus of Dreams.
The Fate Gang gets some time to rest and recuperate before they need to go to the circus. Deli remembers her mysterious benefactor, Desdemona has a confusing dream about an enemy, and Elijah is hungover.
The trio become locked in a fatal encounter with a banshee and finally find out if they'll be able to acquire the Circumstance Engine from Aurelius Whitefeather. But are things really over? And what is to become of Asriel?
Things are coming to a head in the Whitefeather estate. Mona talks to a god, Cordelia powers up her mysterious microphone, and Elijah... is doing his best. All this and more in the penultimate episode of Chapter 1!
Both questions and answers are found in the winding halls of the Whitefeather Estate. The moon and the Red Hand are thrown in sharp relief as the trio get to the bottom of a dark mystery.
Our trio finally arrives at the Whitefeather estate, and the mystery begins with a vampire at the door bearing a sheaf of papers. The party finds out from Clementine that her father is planning to sign a dark pact and—worst of all—won't part with the Engine. And strangely, he seems to already know the circumstances of their arrival.
The time has come to collect the Circumstance Engine—but the trio has a little time the night before to grasp at normalcy. Things escalate quickly as they elect to join the mob to gain entrance to the Whitefeather Estate. But from the sound of things, the Whitefeathers have an undead trick up their sleeve.
In order to retrieve the Circumstance Engine, the trio must star in a mysterious act known as the Unfolding Play. But even if they find the Engine, will they be able to bring it back?
In the wake of the end of the world, our heroes have to figure out the strange and temporally-confusing life they now lead—in addition to reclaiming a mysterious device known as the Circumstance Engine.
As the chase concludes and the villain who captured Desdemona is caught, the trio find themselves at the center of a mystery. Who is this red handed man? Why has he done this? Will Dan ever know the difference between a golf cart and a go kart?
A mob plot! An old flame! A kidnapping! And a high speed chase involving a motorcycle and a golf cart! Our heroes start things off with a bang in this high octane plot featuring a cat who is a definite narc.
