The day spent in the Hall fiefdom passed by quicker than I thought. In the end, the two Hall siblings remained in the place while Sophia temporarily went back home, and even returned within the week to Apollon.
With the rest of the circus members, I reached back to my estate in Apollon.
The same old mansion seemed larger and cleaner than ever. Maybe because the fucking city of Apollon had almost crept up to the territory I had set aside for myself.
I jumped out of the carriage and looked ahead at the city with my arms on my waist. Theatres and other enormous buildings had filled the space as far as one could see, the motif of colored streets never fading even after the large expansion.
People scattered around the city, tourists just as many as artists, ran around doing their own thing, the city crowded and the crowd's din lively.
"This is the famous Apollon…" Muttered Marcin.
