"Here in Sun blossom city every half a year for the last two decades, the Card Creationist association has been conducting auctions of its athered or created by us over the period of sixto call this auction our city's tradition as card apprentices from all over the blosso explained the history behind the half-yearly auction held by the Sun blossom city's card creationist association
After freshening up in our lodging Cheng wanted to lead us to his banquet but finding the flyer for the half-yearly auction in the hotel lobby I decided that the banquet could wait and decided to visit the auction held by the card creationist association
