The feast didn't last long. People began to scatter after eleven o'clock. Although it was a big event, they still needed to go home and rest.
Moreover, Miss Lida Baih's wedding was the next day, and they needed a good sleep before that. The lights in the city went out one after another, but the city lord's manor remained brightly lit.
Lida also found her father's behavior today rather odd. He seemed to have changed after talking to that stranger.
The wedding and the feast aside, it was also very unlike her father to stay up so late. Even if he didn't want to sleep, there was no need for him to stand on the city wall.
It seemed he wanted to stand there forever. Everyone who saw him would think he was going to stand there until sunrise.
"Dad, it's getting late. Come back home!"
