A
sign
proclaimed
it
was
the
largest
in
the
world
,
said
how
much
it
weighed
,
how
many
thousand
light
bulbs
were
to
be
found
in
the
chandeliers
that
hung
from
it
in
gothic
profusion
,
and
forbade
anyone
from
climbing
on
it
or
from
riding
on
the
animals
.
And
such
animals
!
Shadow
stared
,
impressed
in
spite
of
himself
,
at
the
hundreds
of
full
-
sized
creatures
who
circled
on
the
platform
of
the
carousel
.
Real
creatures
,
imaginary
creatures
,
and
transformations
of
the
two
:
each
creature
was
different
—
he
saw
mermaid
and
merman
,
centaur
and
unicorn
,
elephants
(
one
huge
,
one
tiny
)
,
bulldog
,
frog
and
phoenix
,
zebra
,
tiger
,
manticore
and
basilisk
,
swans
pulling
a
carriage
,
a
white
ox
,
a
fox
,
twin
walruses
,
even
a
sea
serpent
,
all
of
them
brightly
colored
and
more
than
real
:
each
rode
the
platform
as
the
waltz
came
to
an
end
and
a
new
waltz
began
.
The
carousel
did
not
even
slow
down
.
"
What
’
s
it
for
?
"
asked
Shadow
.
"
I
mean
,
okay
,
world
’
s
biggest
,
hundreds
of
animals
,
thousands
of
light
bulbs
,
and
it
goes
around
all
the
time
,
and
no
one
ever
rides
it
.
"
"
It
’
s
not
there
to
be
ridden
,
not
by
people
,
"
said
Wednesday
.
"
It
’
s
there
to
be
admired
.
It
’
s
there
to
be
.
"
"
Like
a
prayer
wheel
goin
’
round
and
round
,
"
said
Mr
.
Nancy
.
"
Accumulating
power
.
"
"
So
where
are
we
meeting
everyone
?
"
asked
Shadow
.
"
I
thought
you
said
that
we
were
meeting
them
here
.
But
the
place
is
empty
.
"
Wednesday
grinned
his
scary
grin
.
"
Shadow
,
"
he
said
.
"
You
’
re
asking
too
many
questions
.
You
’
re
paid
not
to
ask
questions
.
"
"
Sorry
.
"
"
Now
,
stand
over
here
and
help
us
up
,
"
said
Wednesday
,
and
he
walked
over
to
the
platform
on
one
side
,
with
a
description
of
the
Carousel
on
it
,
and
a
warning
that
the
Carousel
was
not
to
be
ridden
.
Shadow
thought
of
saying
something
,
but
instead
he
helped
them
,
one
by
one
,
up
onto
the
ledge
.
