Once the parade ended, Merlin and Luna decided to explore the city.
With the festival in full swing, every corner of Dralmor buzzed with activity. Streetlights glowed warmly, and merchants' calls echoed from both sides of the road.
Merlin and Luna shopped for food, clothes, and all sorts of other items.
They didn't really need the clothes—they already had plenty at the mansion—but bought them simply for the fun of it.
After they finished shopping, they decided to return to the mansion.
By coincidence, it was already midnight. Yet instead of quieting down, the city seemed even more crowded.
Luna, however, was very sleepy, and returning was the only sensible choice.
They climbed into a horse-drawn carriage, which soon started moving toward the mansion.
"Are you happy?" Merlin asked, glancing at Luna beside him.
"Very happy!" Luna replied with a bright smile. "I didn't expect this year's Dragon God Festival to be this much fun. Thank you, Merlin!"
