The Auction

Nightlife. Such a fascinating concept. 

The nightlife of Starhold was brimming with degenerate vibrancy. The eyes of the beings that breathed the same air of the blue moon were never so dull.

The agents of the night arranged themselves in lines as they flowed to many locations, but the most common location was a popular restaurant that only seemed to sell expensive meals. 

Now, to a regular person, if they saw this scene, they might not have any problem with it per se. 

After all, everyone was free to spend their hard-earned money the way they liked.

But if they thought deeper, they might find themselves asking, "How does a group of about 1000 people fit themselves in a two-story building?"

Now, that there was a valid question?

Truly, how does an increasing number of people, previously graphed to be about 1000, conveniently occupy the limited space of a two-story building?

The answer to that was unexpected.
