The Moon Goddess Festival is one of the grandest public celebrations in the empire, eagerly anticipated by both commoners and noble families alike.
Aside from the temporary stalls attracting tourists at the Saint Kray Monastery, activities near the Main Hall began at four in the afternoon.
Students and staff of the monastery dressed in formal attire gathered in the specially constructed outdoor banquet hall and its adjoining event pavilion, clinking glasses and exchanging blessings and conversations amidst the melodious music.
The outdoor banquet hall differed only slightly from its indoor counterpart, with even more lively crowds gathering outside.
Celebrities and aristocrats mingled, their laughter and discussions filling the space, as the clinking of glasses resonated throughout the event.
Strangely, amidst such a festive and bustling atmosphere, a professor in a gray coat seemed entirely uninterested in participating.
