Chapter 18: Lunar Capital
Later they would arrive passing through the busy gates of Viala, a city regarded as Lunar’s capital city. “Wow, this looks different.” She commented softly while taking in the scenery which seemed to be inspired by Egyptian Hindu style from the ancient Greek era. She even took in the fashion that varied depending it seemed if the people were from there or elsewhere. “Wonder what kind of festival it is.”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBPraEvugZ

As they walked down the street she took notice of snake demons and cat demons putting up lanterns. Some had artwork of flowers, some had artwork of dragons, some had artwork depicting heavenly females, and some had a combination of them with other elements. A few kids ran around giggling behind their different animal masks and a couple even had sparkler sticks that changed color as the flame reached the next burn level.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuWqi6Oz9B

Their first stop was finding an Inn and they found a two story building called Luna Lily Inn. They entered and Alura was captivated by a clear, multi-shelved stand with hand crafted items for sale inside behind the glass. “Hello there,” Marenzo greeted the orange tabby, only to be ignored so he shot a tiny fragment of ice at a hanging wind chime behind the desk.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPsM0w6xiF

The tabby jump with a fit of hissing with his fur spiked up around his black tipped ears and his silvery-yellow short hair standing up as well. Looking around, ready to attack with claws out, he calmed after some moments while smoothing down his hair as he cleared his throat. “Hello there. How can I help you sir?” he flashed a grin that showed off his sharp feline teeth.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8zRg2LyjC

“I’d like a room for two and no scamming me by saying something’s good and it really be crap that’s overpriced.”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0YN137aKV
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fTGnax8d7
“Why do you think I’d ever overprice a room that isn’t worth it!?” he questioned with an offended sounding tone.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKAbPYvnN5

Marenzo leaned in on the counter, a small smug smirk on his face. “Because, Trim, I know how you operate. I know you got one of the best Inns in the capital city, but I also know you are a good switch man.” He moved his hand with the ring on it and softly rubbed the countertop, causing frost to form over its surface between them. “So, about that room for me and my companion…”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZ5bGAuQZJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmstPTIczpW
Trim’s lime green eyes widened at this realization. “Oh why didn’t you say so Mr. Roslit.” He ducked under the counter briefly before popping up with a key in hand. “Here we are, room 20A.”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNdCEre8jR
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRa1kMuUr6e
“Thank you,” he took the key and eyed it over before shifting his gaze back to the cat. “And this isn’t gonna be a shoty piece?”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXalliAA8i
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisrvNAAODS
“No!” the feline exclaimed with a quick shaking of his head. “I told you I would give you my best and I have. To make it better, and to stifle the temper I remember your mother and brother having, for the duration of the festival I’ll give you the room free of charge.”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsnhmLTRtt
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9SzNPpqzC
Marenzo smiled, “thank you that sounds good to me.” He turned and looked over to Alura. “Ready? I got us a room for free.”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNFfKFTJqm
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJNCj548cG
“Really?” she looked then walked over as he nodded.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fRZLE9kpU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LzKvFXP9D
“It’s a special deal open to anyone during the festival.”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46WLHPB9lt
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIH4RRZrQef
“Aw that’s so nice of you to do. How long does the festival last?” she asked as Marenzo was starting towards the curved staircase.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ171MstlOgj
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ETDfst3Zt
“It lasts for three days and as long as the weather is good then in a couple days or so we should have everything set up to start.”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQgZF6gr1s
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrahWib1VMn
“Oh can you tell us more?” she didn’t see Marenzo slightly roll his eyes at the base of the stairs.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQss27PvSQU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshKo0syzEJ
“Well,” the feline began before the clearing of a throat broken in. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfrr5qEm3e
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuje2B2daA
“We can get an explanation later. If you want to look around the city then we should drop our stuff off and get going.”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCtaa2dKQ5
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrSknj28Rw
“Oh, right,” she looked to Trim, “could you tell us more later?” he nodded and watched as the pair head up to their room. Once there, Alura was the first one inside and to the bed where she set her bag. “It looks nice.”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4QcTKiMrK
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuxeoPS70l
Marenzo looked around the room a bit displeased. “I’m going to kill him.” He muttered when seeing there was only one bed as he stepped around the nicely sized room. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr0pRE2Yl3
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYSLmhDHS4
“Hmm?” she looked over from her bag she had moved up closer beside the pillow.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbEtrbX5v5
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B4kVCLyq4
“Um nothing, shall we head out to look around during the remainder of the daylight?” she nodded and they headed out with Marenzo following after locking the door. Once downstairs he moved towards the tabby. “Hey, we gotta talk. Why’d you-ack!”757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpEdFyNrQT
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBadV5N6RLy
“Oh come on, you wouldn’t let me talk about the festival so you can wait to do your guy talk!” she retorted quickly while dragging him out by his arm. They spent the rest of the day exploring the city before returning once dusk fell, got dinner and went to bed as storm clouds were moving in with the night.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2qEEyErQ1
