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.”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVIXf0RR1B

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.760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECXvyeCOW4

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.760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpI3NJipzuT

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.760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7m6oOfzh1

“I’d like a room for two and no scamming me by saying something’s good and it really be crap that’s overpriced.”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLesIXZoarF
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy69ffwHBVZ
“Why do you think I’d ever overprice a room that isn’t worth it!?” he questioned with an offended sounding tone.760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnB13YNwErb
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmkDTyr0nv
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…”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJC7RKwiQY
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vPhRwne8Q
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.”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgyZOBFYoY
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMN1dHXjXpy
“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?”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDuLHCpOWl
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RGF54FF7y
“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.”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvln26eiMTO
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJSAZINJiD
Marenzo smiled, “thank you that sounds good to me.” He turned and looked over to Alura. “Ready? I got us a room for free.”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2ugcCvtbZ
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26QZvYVWkJ
“Really?” she looked then walked over as he nodded.760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDF0MPTdajM
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEILF1ceGY3
“It’s a special deal open to anyone during the festival.”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISzV94Vu8N
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqvlQrLdln
“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.760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0OCsHLBEX
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqB9VM1O0V
“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.”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnJsd9C4xj
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6hgWL28Ed
“Oh can you tell us more?” she didn’t see Marenzo slightly roll his eyes at the base of the stairs.760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzK2vEjZzir
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhnvivsAiY
“Well,” the feline began before the clearing of a throat broken in. 760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEK0lMcWOI2
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLdE2w2FLQ
“We can get an explanation later. If you want to look around the city then we should drop our stuff off and get going.”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gj2iy3tJt
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjXv3RFV2F
“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.”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YiBK9Z55C
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4kHGR9Y9f
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. 760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9wdeT9u9m
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqFCgjrOUF
“Hmm?” she looked over from her bag she had moved up closer beside the pillow.760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjypCmBcJ4
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4wDq4FDph
“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!”760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguHcC8PHNM
760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCn1BWbs7QL
“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.760Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnfS9scxE0
