Chương 46: Lighting Ceremony Part 1

December 17th, 881. The night shrouded the city of Lower Manhattan. At the New York Stock Exchange, thousands of people gathered and flocked to Eleven Wall Street, visiting to see the lighting ceremony of the New York Stock Exchange. There are food stalls set up along the side of the streets for people to buy food and pastries as they wait for the clock to strike eleven at midnight. 

People coming from different social classes attended the lighting ceremony and it was hard to differentiate who is who as they wore neat formal dresses. Poul and Jonathan were having a hard time wading through the crowd, not only there is a small space to go forward, but they also have to watch out for their surroundings so as to not accidentally push people.
