As day turned to evening, the festival preparations reached their culmination. The courtyard, now adorned with vibrant decorations and bustling with activity, bore the fruits of meticulous planning.

"Thank you all for your hard work. The festival promises to be a grand celebration, and your contributions have made it possible," I announced, and with that, the merchants began to pack up their stalls.
Turning to Allan, I gestured towards the castle. "You've done well, Allan. You may retire to your chambers and rest. Tomorrow is sure to bring new challenges."
Allan nodded appreciatively, expressing his gratitude before making his way towards the castle
