Penumbra's pitch

"That's right, ladies and gentlemen," the man in the dark suit and red carnation proclaims from the bottom of the ramp as Urfkgar gets within earshot. "Penumbra's Roaming Cavalcade of Mysteries. We've gathered the strange and unusual from one end of the Orion Arm to the other ... and beyond! So, step right up, climb aboard, don't be bashful! Admission's free, although we do charge for liquid refreshments and comestibles! Tips are, as always, appreciated! And the rumors are true! Yes, true! Penumbra's Roaming Cavalcade of Mysteries *is* hiring!" He gestures up the ramp. "Step right up!"
