The only reason Finn had stopped looking at the red tinged Moon was Cornifer urging them to be on their way, and Finn could only compile as he followed along. He could admire the blood moon later.
They followed Cornifer to his own stall where Finn could see he was once more selling maps and all sorts of other equipment and trinkets, like weird shell-like markers.
They helped Cornifer organize his stall easily while saying a greeting to the passing by guest every now and then. Finn noticed Cornifer was quite well known for this type of gathering.
"Huhh." Jake breathed a relieved sigh as he slumped over one of Cornifers available chairs.
"I'm beat. "He said dramatically his body melting into the chair. Finn wondered what exactly got his lazy brother so tired off. This was hardly any work at all.
Cornifer came back from within his tent seeing they were done with the part they offered to help arrange. The old bug was oddly jumpy in his steps, an energetic vibe to him.
"Finn and Jake, I see you're already done here. Thank you both so very much for all the help. "
Jake raised a shaking arm and gave a weak thumbs up.
"No problem Mr. Cornifer. "Finn smiled kindly as he tried and failed to lift Jake from where his body had practically fused with the chair.
"You two boys better be off then; I wouldn't want to keep you here for too long. There is a lot to see for young ones such as yourself in a festival such as this one. "Cornifer said urging them to explore their adventurous spirit to the fullest. An earnest desire from one adventurer to another.
Finn's eyes had been sparkling since earlier, and he quickly agreed with Cornifer's suggestion.
"You're right Mr. Cornifer, we'll be on our way then. "Finn gave the kind bug a wave and turned to his lazy brother who was already comfortably slumped. He resisted the sigh that wanted to rise from his chest.
"So… Are you coming along or not?" Finn questioned directly, but there was an answer he expected. The signs were quite clear.
"Nope, I'm too lazy to move right now. Go enjoy yourself Finn. "Jake gave a shooing motion as he said this words, urging Finn to leave. He himself was not that quite interested in the festival. He was mostly accompanying Finn and that was it. His curiosity had already been fulfilled by seeing the much he had already seen.
"Figured. I'll bring you something nice if I find anything. "Finn said finally leaving the confides of the tent.
"Stay safe Finn," He heard Jake mutter before his words were drowned out by the bustling crowd.
......….
Finn walked out of the tent and his attention was once more attracted by that blood moon up in the sky.
A blood moon had significant meanings in different shows, games, and media, varying from a sign of great danger to even acting as a symbol of strange events about to happen event about to happen.
But Finn wondered if this blood moon itself was the reason for all that was happening currently, could this be the reason why such an occasion had occurred, could this blood moon be the reason why the different dimensions were seemingly experiencing a weaking effect on their world barriers and opening, it was an interesting though.
He wondered if the goddess had simply interfered with the existence of this world and brought the changes he was seeing currently or had this world been functioning as it always had. Only one person could answer that question for Finn, and unfortunately, they were not present.
To his understanding, it was not normal at all for all these portals to open at once. But all these were outside Finn's control. He could only mule the thoughts over in his mind and come to conclusions later.
Finn had been walking in the crowd for a while now the Nomicon a silent comfort beside him in its invisible form, he trying as much as possible to avoid unnecessarily bumping into anyone.
Finn wondered where he should go first, which section to visit and see what they offered. He could even go to the section featuring people from Ooo, even. Maybe it could be his lucky break, and he could find that mad goose he had been looking for.
He was already aware of the hollow knight world, due to Cornifers' information and he wished to know how many more were present. Finn did wonder what the implications of Hollow knight world being joined to this one. Hopefully, nothing dangerous came through.
...
It was only because Finn worried that he would have to make a highly effective bug repellant that he had been distracted enough to bump into someone.
"Ouch. Hey that hurt. "A girlish annoyed voice said as Finn equally rubbed his slightly hurt nose. That was quite the hard crush. He complained also equally annoyed at the girl. This was clearly her fault and why was she running away so fast in this large crowd!
Finn was even more disappointed that Observation Haki had failed to warn him. Or was bumping into someone not considered that much of a threat.
"Aren't you going to help me up. "Finn rolled his eyes at her words but still reached out his hands and helped the girl up. And it was only then that he caught a look at the girl's face, and an instant shake made him stop in confusion.
The girls' eyes suddenly opened widely, seeing something that Finn had failed to see behind him and taking advantage of that they were still holding hands, the girl pulled Finn along suddenly.
"Hey, stop dazing off and follow me. "
......…..
Jake Pov
He had been resting on the chair for a while, his limbs falling over stretched on the ground. He was not even asleep, just relaxing deep in thought about useless cosmic junk that did not really matter that much in the end.
[Sniff sniff]
His nose suddenly enlarged, taking multiple deep sniffs and his body finally stood straight up, even doing a jump from the chair he had been resting on.
His nose once again took a deeper sent, this time more precise and then his mouth instantly watered as his eyes sparkled.
"What is that amazing smell? I must find out. "Jake said finally moving his nose acting as his guide.
"Goodbye Jake, I hope you enjoy yourself. "Cornifer waved at the finally departing dog.

Marceline Pov
The vampire queen was equally among the crowd, looking for a young stowaway who had tugged along as she was coming back to Ooo and unfortunate for her, it was her responsibility to ensure she was safe for the moment.
"Responsibility sucks!" She said but she continued to glide, thinking about how she would pinch the chubby cheeks of the over energetic girl.
...…
Pov Gnomes
Multiple unknown species were also among the crowd present in the Wizard battle arena. From the warrior like centaurs to the small harmless tiny people.
But there was an interesting group among the crowd.
This group compiled of short humanlike creatures, wearing red pointy huts and every single one of them possessing beards. Ranging from snow white, silky, rugged, and even the delicate.
These creatures were currently in deep argument, going back and forth over a topic that seemed to persist among them. They finally looked like they had come to an agreement.
"The plan to find a new queen is now in progress!" Jeff said loudly to the gathered Gnomes around him.
"Yes leader. "
"Roger that. "
"SHMEBULOCK!!! "

Pov Peppermint Butler
He wore a dark hood and easily moved along the passing groups, sometimes he admired the equally dazzling lights that came from the people and other times he would quickly pull away, avoiding troublesome groups of people.
But today was both a day of enjoyment and discovery. He especially wondered what strange new materials that Beedle had managed to bring for him. Hopefully, he will find something interesting.
