The heart of Sabel's capital had transformed completely beneath the night.
Rows upon rows of glowing lanterns stretched across the streets, suspended above the crowds like rivers of stars.
Their shimmering glow danced across the water, along with the drifting lanterns of various sizes and forms released by the people.
Music echoed from every direction.
Lights emerged from across the streets and coastline while distant laughter, music, and lively chatter drifted through the sea breeze.
The vendors' lively calls filled the air as countless visitors wandered through the decorated streets.
Stalls lined both sides of the pathways, offering food, items, and festival games that drew excited festivalgoers. The scent of grilled meat, sweet syrup, spices, and sea breeze blended beneath the vibrant celebration.
At the centre of it all, the main canal cutting through the capital was especially crowded.
