"Let's go, let's go!" Aina whispered to me in the middle of the party, and we slipped out of the festivities with determination.
Honestly, the party itself was more for the citizens of the country who were finally freed of the mana pollution's threat. Rather than doing it in the Capital, the party was done in the city meant for tourism, not far from the last purification site.
Perhaps because of the impromptu festival that happened in the town before, the Regent had already arranged for a real festival in this tourist town, even while I was in the middle of work. People came from around the country, as far as the news could travel. Bards and messengers, as it happened, were working hard to spread the news of the purified land.
