For a city that was on the brink of destruction - not that they would know - it was quite peaceful. Tranquil one might say. Sure there was the occasional brawl, and maybe there was a thief or two. But that was all small time in the eyes of anyone that saw it.
Really, the thieves weren't doing it 'cause they were hungry, more for the thrill, and the brawls were all in good fun. There were even people just chuckling about and watching like it was some common occurrence.
I found myself watching one too, and it was quite fun… seeing two bare fist men trying to out duke the other.
"Having fun?" I turned and found myself staring at what amounted to a wallflower. She was one of those girls that would sit in the back of the room and just garner attention with her pure looks, one of the ones that nerve quite expressed an opinion yet still held dozens of conversations.
"Yes. It's… quaint."
