It had been an early morning, what with the rushing around their fabricated camp to gather supplies intended for sale. Sleeping in had never been her forte but in Barrett’s case, just the fact that he was alert and awake at this hour was a feat in itself. She could only watch as he packed up his belongings, determinedly collecting trading goods here and there. While he probably hadn’t planned on spending the day with her, Lilin had (as per usual) imposed her will on him. Consequently they had negotiated the terms of her attendance and in resume; she was not to interfere in any occurring bargains. In exchange, he would provide her with home-grown goodies to barter away for nails and screws. He also hadn’t objected to her spending whatever was left at the end of the day to her own convenience.

Barrett’s offer tipped the scale in his favour as she readily agreed, liking the possibility of owning a few trinkets of her own. The two-toned juvenile had never been to Freetown and the chances of her ever making it there were quite slim. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity and she planned on making the most out of it. Before long, her resolve and enthusiasm matched his. Seeing so many attendees was surprising enough. Apparently they weren’t the only early birds around. There were several cliques gathered around the festival grounds; some awaiting the start of their selected activity, others hard at work bargaining with zealous hagglers. By the looks of some creatures, Lilin could only assume they hadn’t yet slept. Or perhaps they had and they were simply hung-over, as Barry had been when she’d found him in the yard. Whatever their story was, they looked like hell.


“You gonna give this guy a try?” she questioned as they slowed their pace and paused in the middle of the mass. Lilin followed her comrade’s citron gaze, attempting to interpret his calculating behaviour. He’d seen something interesting in the merchant’s wares, obviously.
