Banquet (3)
The darkness of the night stretches throughout the snow capped mountains. Black clouds surround the sky, hiding the rising moon while stars can barely emit their twinkling lights from behind the greyish night. The clouds look as if it will rain later in the night, threatening a thunderstorm.
But even the weather cannot dampen the festive mood in Sloria. Large crowds of people have gathered in the city square. Parents, children and the older people have excitedly joined the festivities which promised them a feast.
Thousands of women have been hired to prepare large feasts and each family has been allocated a generous amount of food. The food is being served to the families in carefully wrapped utensils. Soldiers from the palace are keeping the crowds in check, maintaining the queues while several large fields have been set up for the citizens where they can sit in large circles to share their food with their friends and families.
