Tove didn't respond to Rainard's remark and looked outside the window of the carriage. They were close to the market and shortly, the carriage stopped. Rainard was the first one to step out and Tove followed his suit.
"We will be back soon," Rainard told the chaffuer and went ahead inside the market with Tove.
The market reverberated with a myriad of sounds, and the bustling crowd propelled Tove forward until Rainard reached out, securing her and preventing her from being swept away.
"Are you alright?" Rainard inquired.
"Oh, yes, I am," Tove replied, attempting to retract her hand. However, Rainard retained his grip, leading her through the bustling market at a more leisurely pace.
"At this time of the year, the market typically teems with a diverse array of traders. Hence, it's no surprise it gets so densely populated. I'm delighted I opted to accompany you here," Rainard declared in a voice projected above the clamor.
