While that didn't completely shut down the city, the Demons' tradition that every shop was only open for four hours a day, and they even had an organized schedule for it. The majority of shops were open until noon, and the food vendors were open from noon until four hours later.
After that, only a few places like taverns and brothels were open for the rest of the day.
But that didn't mean things calmed down. On the contrary, everyone who had the means gathered for what Wolfe would call a potluck dinner in the public parks and squares. Even Rail was making plans to cook a massive bowl of her favourite cheesy potatoes for the event.
