A veil lifts, and you hear the noise of a bustling crowd. You feel a shove in your back and then you are in it: a narrow path lined with colourful stalls, barely lit by gently f lickering lanterns. The smells of flowers, fruits, and spices blend with those of the damp primeval forest. You feel the weight of coins in a pocket you didn't know you had.
