Ariel sighed and hummed as she continued to look about. She felt rather indecisive in that moment. She searched around and found Lorag's face looking over at the merchants with what she thought was a puzzled expression. "Why not try the market first?" Ariel suggested, before moving in that direction. Sabine's eyes darted between Ariel's and Meesei's, but she followed along. The thicker crowds there were a place she didn't want to get lost in.

The merchants were mixed and varied in appearance and wares. While there was an organisation to each of the stalls' layout, there didn't seem to be a grouping according to what they sold. And everything was on sale. To Ariel's left, an Argonian man was hawking jewellery, to her right, an wizened imperial craftsman was selling clay wares, including dainty marionette puppets. Looking around further, she could see potions, tools, weapons and armour, snacks, soul gems, clothing, and more. And that was just what she could see immediately around her. She was so fascinated that she didn't look where she was going and bumped into the shoulder of someone passing by. She looked up to apologise and saw that it was Rukeewei of all people. "Rukeewei! Hello there! I didn't expect to run into you so soon!" Ariel said over the chatter of the crowds. She smiled at him, but he had an uncertain look. "Is something wrong?" Ariel asked.

The song being played in the centre of the square ended on a crescendo. The crowd clapped and cheered, but Fendros still looked over at the street they entered, his face slightly concerned. He considered going to look for Ahnasha in the festival for a moment, but was interrupted by Janius. "Hey, what's the matter? Looking for Ahnasha?" He said, clearly in a cheerier mood than he was.

"Yeah, she said... wait, I think I see her now," Fendros smiled as he spotted a familiar dress in the direction of the square's entrance. He only caught a glimpse, but it was looked like Ahnasha. When the Khajiit woman turned her face for a moment, Fendros' smile faded. "Wait, nevermind. I think I'll go look for her."

Janius nodded, "Of course. I think people are partnering up to dance for the next song, I'm going to stick around."

"Very well," Fendros said, before beginning to weave his way through the crowds again. He tried to make his way to the square's entrance first to see if she was just coming up the road.

While he walked, he swore he heard an older looking Argonian hiss at him angrily. He was taken aback by the gesture, but the man disappeared into the crowds just as quickly. Maybe there were still a few open wounds in this culture after all.

Fendros neared the entering street and looked over the heads of the crowd. He eventually spotted Ahnasha trying to do the same thing. "Ahna!" He called out, waving one hand. It was nice to see her even if they were only separated for a short while. He made his way up to her with a grin. "There are troupes, shows, games, merchants, food, and I think Janius is dancing. I don't know where the others have gotten to though." He put his arm around hers, and gestured to square with his other hand, "Shall we?"
