It's been pretty fun! I'm really not sure I get what we're supposed to do with that room with the pool full of balls though. But I've enjoyed it. We don't really get...I guess this isn't really a festival, is it? But there's nothing like this back home. So it's been interesting with the talks and everything.

[Sorey being Sorey, of course he's enthusiastic and trying to make the most of this. So much is new to him here.]

The ballpit? Usually they're geared toward little kids, so they'd be playing with them, I guess. I just kinda sat around, though.

[You can bury yourself in them and hide if necessary.]

And I think... you could call it a type of a festival. But it's called a 'convention'.

Oh. So that's why it seemed so small. But it was an area we could try relax away from the crowds a bit at least.

[Which Sorey was thankful for, at one point. He's still seeming to feel like he's adjusting to the crowds around here, in comparison to back home.]

So it's like a really big festival? I've never heard of a convention before.
resipiscent: (uh what)

It's like... a festival is usually centered around a tradition, right? But a convention is more... people getting together for a specific interest. I guess there are conventions for comic books and stuff, too.

I think I get it then, yeah. So if there was a gathering for people who liked reading about history or something, that would be a convention. If it was something like a reenactment of something in legends like the Sacred Sword of Ladylake back home, that's a festival.

[Right? He thinks he gets the idea.]
