Harvest moon festival (1)

It was finally the day the townspeople had all been waiting for, the harvest moon festival. It meant tons of activities for the next two days and hopefully a visit from the king. Parties would be held for young men and women to mingle and potentially become partners. Young girls were busy picking out their best dress with their mothers while the young men were having drinks with their father to discuss which household daughters they should keep an eye on.

Aurora stood alone in her room looking at the bland dress which arrived for her a day ago. It was nothing like the one she liked back at the Madame Eloise and did not match her cape. It was a strange looking off-white dress with long sleeves and looked like it was too long for her which she disliked. However, she expected a dress that would not suit her so no one would pay attention.
