Aiden and his wives reached the base of the hill and stepped onto one of the main roads leading into the heart of the city.
Market lined both sides of the street. There was this one stall that sold fabrics in colors, they weren't so sure existed in their planet.
The merchant running that stall was a woman with features of a peacock.
She noticed them staring and gestured enthusiastically toward her wares, speaking in that strange language they couldn't understand.
Arianna smiled politely and shook her head, making a gesture with her hands that she hoped conveyed "not buying."
The merchant seemed to understand and nodded before returning to arranging her fabrics.
They moved from stall to stall, taking their time. Some stands sold strange fruits, others displayed figurines; including a few shaped like dragons, which made Aiden pause and smile.
He didn't need anyone to explain that stories of dragons had likely been passed down in this world too.
