"It's the celebration of Lord Neptune. Falling City is surrounded by the sea on three sides, so the people here also pray for Neptune's blessing, to ensure their family's safety while traveling," Kyle Kinston explained.
As the parade drew closer, Mabel indeed saw many people singing and dancing, dressed as various sea creatures, and some people holding banners with auspicious phrases on them.
The crowd grew larger, and Mabel was nearly tripped by the surging crowd. If Kyle hadn't pulled her up, she would have fallen.
Kyle wrapped his arm around Mabel's shoulder, carefully avoiding the crowd. Since their bodies were close, Mabel could sense his tension, and his eyes kept scanning the surroundings, a vigilant look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Mabel also got tense, "Is something going to happen?"
