After spending a couple of hours exploring the festival throughout the city, Yuan and the others eventually returned to the palace.
The palace had also begun to fill with guests, as noble families from across the empire had traveled to the capital to attend the victory banquet and enjoy the festivities.
This was the largest festival on the entire continent, as all the nations had come together to celebrate the occasion.
Not only nobles but also commoners had flocked to the capital city for the festival, filling its streets with people from all walks of life.
While the citizens continued to enjoy the unique atmosphere of the festival, Yuan and the others returned to the palace after sightseeing and sampling nearly every dish offered by the street vendors.
Upon arriving, they noticed a large number of carriages parked outside the palace, while the palace gardens were already filled with guests, including commoners.
