"There's quite a lot of people... is there going to be enough space for everyone?" she wondered.

"I should be able to get in", she thought to herself.
With the lines of people waiting to get in, there was a bit of talking around her.
"Do you think that the rumors are true? Do they have a real fairy in this year's auction?"
"I mean they have to! If they don't, how many people would be angry with such deceit? Let alone the auction, the city itself might be trashed!"
