[Aether is no stranger to ending up in weird places, so he's quick to adjust. Exploring is the most important part and a festival sounds like an amazing opportunity to meet all kinds of people and hopefully gather some information. Sadly, Aether's little guide Paimon is absent and the silence soon starts bothering the traveler, especially when he passes by all the stands with food. Usually Paimon would be the first to rush to them, exclaiming how much she wants to try everything.

At some point, Aether ends up by the bonfire, enjoying the music and the festive atmosphere. He then takes a seat next to someone else and smiles at them.]

Hi there. I'm new around. Would you mind chatting with me a little?

[After all, isn't this a perfect moment for a relaxing chat?]

[The traveler is always up for any challenge and building a sandcastle is something he has not tried to do before. Building a snowman? Yes. Sandcastles? Well, now we'll find out how it will go! It can't be that much more difficult from building a snowman though... can it?

Aether is pouring all his creativity into it, before standing up and giving his "art" a critical look. It... does not resemble a sandcastle. Not yet, at least. The taller part of the structure crumbles after a moment, making Aether's creation look more like a taller mountain than a building of any kind.]

Hmm...

[Aether turns around, before waving to someone.]

Hey, have you ever built a sandcastle? I think I could use some pointers.

[This is what he gets for starting a challenge without a tutorial.]
