The sky was cloudy. Fortunately, it isn't snowing much today. 

Cheerful festive music was heard everywhere. Along with that people especially children's chatter and laughter echoed in the air. Some people were dancing together at the centre of the commoners' town following cheerful mediaeval music.

Colourful papers were hung all over the commoners' town and the marketplaces. Surprisingly everyone except the kids was wearing normal clothes in this cold winter. Kids were running all over wearing cute animal masks. 

'Honestly, it didn't matter if they didn't wear one. They can't transform properly after all.'

There was a person with bright makeup, wearing a colourful outfit and a red wig. A small cherry-like something was over his nose. He was selling balloons to the children. 

He looks kind of spooky to me honestly.
