While the clone dealt with the assassin, Adrian and Renelle reappeared in the streets of the South, drawing no attention to themselves.
They were welcomed by the sound of music from musicians who had been playing the entire day.
Adrian continued holding Renelle's hand as they walked deeper into the festival happening in the streets, refusing to let go, not that she minded in the slightest.
She glanced at the sides, noting the sheer amount of colors in this place when compared to the North or even the capital.
Adrian suddenly pulled her towards a certain stall that sold something that seemed to be similar to translucent colored rocks, but of different colors.
Renelle was quite confused. After all, what would Adrian want with those rocks?
Adrian, though he sensed her confusion, said nothing; instead, he just looked up at the old woman and said, "May I have two, please?"
