The Mapkeeper And The Rise Of The Wardens - Plot & Excerpts
Shops were adorned with strings of bright flower buds and paper lanterns clung to lamp posts and eaves. The happy humming of conversation and laughter resonated throughout the town. “The weather cooperated,” Cadmus remarked, smiling up at the cloudless sky. Lucy stood in the midst of it all, absorbing the cheer of the Blossom Jubilee. A group of fiddlers and an accordionist harmonized a cheerful jingle outside Emil’s Clothier Shop. Women flitted to and fro wielding woven baskets brimming with tulips, offering the long-stemmed flowers to anyone who crossed their paths. Red, yellow, crimson, pink, and white flowers were everywhere. “They’re beautiful!” Lucy gushed, accepting a handful of stems from a grinning curly-haired woman she recognized as Bernie Schuman. “I guess the Blossom Jubilee is pretty cool,” Mack admitted. Arnold Brawne and his son Fritz had set up a stand outside their butchery, where they were cooking delicious-smelling meats over an open grill and selling skewered meat lunch plates.
