Meanwhile, Rin and Sasha reached the theatre district, the streets buzzing with life. Bright banners fluttered above the buildings, their bold colours announcing the big show. Crowds bustled toward the theatre, their chatter filling the air with excitement, the scent of roasted nuts and sweet pastries mingling with the crisp breeze.
Rin's crimson eyes darted around, curious and alert. He hadn't been in such a crowded, lively place before... not like this, not without his veil or the weight of being the Golden Goose. Couples strolled hand in hand, families laughed, and children ran past with glowing sticks, their faces bright with joy. The normalcy of it all felt strange, almost like a dream.
Sasha leaned close, pointing toward a stall across the street.
"We need something called tickets to get in. Stay here by the fountain. I'll go buy them."
