Unique items:
There are no merchants or services unique to this area in Ember Bay.

Commentary:
This VIP area is located on a mountain top in Ember Bay with a circus theme. The area is quite compact which is quite desirable. There are quite a few trees which are in easy reach from the launch pad - good for those seeking a tree farm.

But a handful of nearby trees is not really a reason to select this travel gizmo over some of the others. The Armorsmith and Weaponsmith merchants are not present. OK, this is not a great loss but still something to note.

There doesn't seem to be any flair or personality to this area. It's feels like someone was charged with designing this area and only had a few hours to do it.

Final Score:
This is an average gizmo. There is nothing special to distinguish it from some of the others but it also has no glaring flaw. So this lounge pass gets a grade of “C”.
