“The winter festival is almost here.” Yeol and Nana had just come back from a patrol and they talked about an upcoming event, “The streets have started getting decorated.”

“The winter festival?” I asked as I looked at them in confusion, “What’s that?” I was on the training grounds with the rest of the knights who had just come back from duty.

They all looked at me like I had committed some grave sin

“You don’t know?” Nana held my shoulders, “How long have you been living here?” There was genuine horror in her eyes.

Oh, shoot! I shouldn’t give myself away! I can’t tell them I’ve never been to one since I was drugged for almost two years straight.

I tapped her hands, “I’ve heard about it.” I laughed awkwardly as I slipped away from her grip, “But I’ve never been to one since I’ve lived in the countryside most of my life.”

“Ah~” She relaxed a bit, “That’s understandable.”
