Rukeewei paused to think for a moment. "Hmm, I had mostly came here to browse what the merchants were selling, but I doubt that would be exciting to you. I wouldn't mind showing you some of the more interesting things to do. Like I mentioned before, the Festival of Life is a week long event, and they hold special events on different days. Tomorrow is all about competition. They have athletic competitions, like swimming and running, magical competitions, and all kinds of other, smaller games. The day after that is dedicated to beauty, the one after that feasting, and so on. Today is sort of a mix of them all, giving a taste of each. I think there are a few games set up on that side of the square, if that appeals to you. The prizes usually aren't worth much, but it can be fun. Just be cautious today, and really the rest of the week. It is [i]very[/i] easy to lose a lot of gold during the festival. it's the entire reason it exists."

"I don't suppose there is anything with moon sugar?" Ahnasha joked as she looked at the options before her. She had not been so conflicted in months on what she wanted. There were a few items she saw that she had even been craving a few weeks before, though she didn't have as much interest in them now. Khajiit foods were an option, but she wanted something she wasn't used to. Breton cuisine was also available, but it was more expensive, generally, and she felt that would be too obvious of a choice. She had been eating Dunmer foods, or at least the raw versions, for months, and considering that cannibalism probably wasn't legal in Thorn, she doubted that the Bosmer dishes were [i]too[/i] traditional. For the moment, the Argonian foods were appealing to her the most. Like the trodh, some of them were even raw. Approaching a stall operated by a bluish-green Argonian woman, One of the dishes she could see caught her eye; it had some type of raw meat wrapped in some kind of plant's leaves and covered in a sweet-smelling sauce. 

Ahnasha pointed to the dish she was interested in and looked at the Argonian woman. "Excuse me, is safe for non-Argonians to eat?" She asked.

The woman shook her head. "The lamia tail? No, it is not poisonous to other races, but that uncooked. The leaves wrapping it improve disease resistance enough that Argonians can eat it, but other races can easily get sick from it." 

Ahnasha nodded in understanding. Obviously, she could not tell the woman why she wasn't worried about disease, so she needed to come up with something else. "Don't worry, I made sure to drink a potion of disease resistance before coming here. I am not worried about it."

The Argonian glanced back and forth between Ahnasha and the lamia tail hesitantly for a few moments before responding. "Alright...as long as you understand the risk. That will be five gold." Ahnasha nodded and collected the gold from her coinpurse while the Argonian prepared a fresh lamia tail. After paying, Ahnasha walked back over to Fendros, holding onto the wrapped meat by one of the spots that wasn't covered in sauce. She took a bite and immediately found that the taste wasn't what she was expecting. The meat itself was almost spicy, while the leaves had a sort of mint flavor. Combined with the sauce, it was altogether an interesting combination of flavors. Even so, she did not dislike it, and she was already considering getting another after it. 

"This is not quite like anything I have eaten before. You should try a bite." Ahnasha suggested, offering the lamia tail to Fendros.

As Janius became more familiar with their current dance, Meesei gave a mischievous smile. As the music's tempo sped up, Meesei began to make her part of the dance more complicated. As it did not have set steps, she was free to introduce any variation that fit the theme of the song. As their dance increased in complexity, it became apparent to any observer that Meesei was the one leading. In her village, music and dance were common, and often took place at their social gatherings. Any sort of celebration usually involved some amount of dancing, so it was one of the few things about this festival that Meesei could actually relate to. She moved with practiced grace, challenging Janius to keep up. Considering that he did not know what he was meant to do next, she found herself greatly influencing his movements. Her steps were deliberate, and her body motions fluid. She could even wrap her tail around his leg as she moved past him without so much as disturbing his own movement. She just hoped that the musicians did not switch to a style that she was unfamiliar with...especially anything Imperial.
