In the corner of the market square, Setsura stood there, watching as all the couples around her danced. Her gaze fell on their masks. Everybody had one, even the young children.
People often express their true feelings when behind some kind of mask or because of a feeling of anonymity, where they conceal their identity. It makes them feel separated from the situation, safe from the consequences of their actions. It allows them to show their true selves in front of strangers who don't know who they are.
These people can be anybody who they want to be wearing a mask. They can pretend to be somebody else, and it wouldn't matter. Nobody would know.
