Chương 180: The Sad New Year

New Year's Eve this time was very beautiful. The sky above the city of Almstad that night was bright because of so many fireworks lit up by the people. It went on for almost half an hour

Large crowds took to the streets, enjoying the festivities. They carried a bottle of wine or champagne with them and drank outdoors with their neighbors and friends while chatting happily.

This was the hallmark of New Year's Eve in the Moravian capital. Tens of thousands of people would take to the streets, and all the cafes and restaurants opened with music playing all over the city. They all celebrated the year that had passed and welcome the new year to come.

Tonight, the people's joy seemed to be complete as slowly light snowflakes came down from the sky, making the atmosphere very serene.
