OPEN ALL DAY May 20th to 23rd!"
These sort of events attracted quite a lot of attention, and this particular bazaar was supposed to be the big one of the month. From neighborhood sellers to professional marketers to traveling merchants from other regions, stalls with an endless beach of colorful items filled the area spanning several blocks of New Alexandria. Lazuli would loved to have brought along her good friend Phen, whom she thought might be interested in something like this, but she hadn't been able to catch her fellow nyad home that dawn. Instead, she could only send off a wish that she would happen to meet someone today, whether friend or new companion.
Lazuli walked past quite a lot of people who had shown up already to head to the bazaar, although the area had yet to reach its fully bustling peak. Lazuli tipped her head at the sky -- still milky with that soft early morning glow. A light wind made her adjust her hat. She breathed in the cool fresh air and thought, Mornings are always so nice, aren't they? ...and then, I wonder what will happen today.
Chiko poked his furry head out of Lazuli's vieux rose shoulder bag. He sniffed the crisp air lazily. The nyad grinned at the darling cheefle and tickled the underside of his chin lightly with a pinky finger. "Are you ready to start the day with me, Chiko?"
Chiko made a squeaky noise and disappeared back inside the bag. Lazuli sighed and shook her head with a sad smile, although she was too excited to be disappointed. She could already smell the scents of the bazaar as she approached the handmade entrance, from the homely smells to the exotic.
"Little lady! Do look here! What would you like from this magnificent stall?"
Lazuli stopped by the merchandise of a bald, roundish jewelry seller who had waved her over. She surveyed a pair of donut-shaped earrings as her face lit up in amusement. "Hee hee, they have sprinkles on them, too."
