Linsha and Lord Bight were strolling around the Medieval World Renaissance fair. Linsha couldn't say she felt home here. Too many anachronisms.
"For me, it's as if they took pieces of real world - I mean, OUR real world - and mixed it with many unreal pieces", Linsha whispered to her husband. It was presumed she should have fun here, but she was too fresh in the ship and in all this multiverse to have fun with strange things. Strange, but only here she started to understand how attached she was to her own world. The world that stopped to exist by someone's whim.
There were, of course, a lot of merry shows, but the only interesting ones were sword competitions, and she simply didn't have any mood for this kind of play now.
So far, everything she wanted was to buy some clothes and perhaps some decent armor if there were any. But all the things were ridiculously overpriced and more like playthings than real things. There were, however, some stalls with decent pieces of clothes, there was even a red gown that would be quite good as a formal gown for Linsha, but...
"I haven't earned any money yet," Linsha whispered to Crucible after learning the price and turned to leave. She was regretting going here at all. It was just stupid to go to a fair without money. Certainly Lord Bight had some that she could borrow, but she simply didn't expect THESE prices. "Maybe we'll find another planet with a market with normal prices. So far, I can just go around in my tunic. Even next to your splendour."
