The fairgrounds were overcrowded with people from all over the country; Muggles and Wizards alike, all bustling in and out of the same tents, impervious of the differences between them, each too delighted in all the amusement that the autumn carnival had to offer to notice anything at all that might have appeared to them as unpleasant.
Look at them, Ravus said in dark amusement, hardly bothering to lower his voice. They are surrounded by illusions left and right and today they wonder how it is done. Today they know that a veil has been pulled over their eyes, and yet they still fail to see the biggest illusion of all, the one they live in every single day. He sat on his heels beside his twin, entirely undaunted by the fact that the only force that kept him from freefalling to the ground so far below was a single cord of tightly woven leather, no bigger around than his middle finger.
