Well, the parade was the same old stuff as always. That was running through Alecta's head as she and the others were escorted to the palace district. After so many years, it honestly became a bore for her, something she only attended because nobility came with certain responsibilities. Luckily for her, she enjoyed the rest of the Festival much more, looking forward to the ball in particular. Dancing, drinking, it was Alecta's world.
Which is why she decided to take a little detour from exploring the events and festivities, and find herself a proper dress.
Red, it had to be red, is all she knew. The color of blood, it suited her. Athlis always liked the color on her, too.
Walking the streets, seeing all those singers, dancers, fire-eaters, it amused her, lifting her spirits some from the disappointment that the parade always was. She scanned the crowds, politely greeting the familiar faces, keeping an eye open for the perfect dress she was looking for. It had to be the most outstanding on the whole ball, classy and elegant, something that will catch the eye of everyone. She would find it, she was sure of that, and in a matter of minutes, she would be able to join the celebration and throw herself into the festival like everyone else.
