Holidays

These are the most commonly celebrated holidays in Eldemyre:
The Festival of Mercy (First Omoral of Larchex): The Festival of Mercy celebrates the end of Huecana and the beginning of Bastion's Mercy. Among the many lighthearted and joyful traditions during The Festival of Mercy, people will see who grew the longest, natural beard during Huecana.
Day of Becoming (Second Sehal of Emeritae): The Day of Becoming celebrates the renewal of life and growth, and the nourishing rains. Inspired by the cleansing rain, people use this holiday as an opportunity to clean out the old and make room for the new.
Woodward's Week (Third Wardal of Magena to First Wardal of Fraxinus): Woodward's Week is a huge holiday that lasts a full week. Households remember, honor, and celebrate their families and the memory of their ancestors. There is a lot of singing togethering and dancing after a big community meal.
Ever Solstice (Third Ransal of Fraxinus): Ever Solstice celebrates the longest day of the year. Parties often begin with sunrise and end with sunset - in parts of the world this may be very late in the evening. Grand Harvest (Second Pelal of Silverbell): Grand Harvest celebrates the bountiful crops harvested during this season. Traditions include regional pie eating contests using some of the delicious harvested fruits. Heartforge (Third Mordal of Wisterlot): Heartforge celebrates love of all kinds, and emphasizes creation as a showcase of that love. This may be done through homemade gifts, cooking or baking for loved ones, or creating art for them (writing music, writing poetry, painting, etc.). Mages may even create simple cantrips to show their love.
Hedrath's Rest (First Wynal of Rosza): As the first major holiday during The Grey, this is a day of rest and calm. Most businesses will close with only absolutely necessary services remaining active.
Regional Civic Holidays (Third Erathal of Paleoak): Each region celebrates this day differently, with some activities lasting over several more days. Some notable examples include:

The Xericho Games: a continent wide competition lasting through the end of Paleoak that all cities are invited to participate in.

The Grand Parade: a huge, bombastic parade and celebration that winds through all of Prestige. There is dancing in the streets, wild costumes, and treats thrown out to the watching audience.

Rising Day: All the islands of Nova Cerul celebrate the day that the islands were risen into the sky. Incredible, magical fireworks are launched from all the islands and can even be seen from Craggenreim.

All Presiding Day: The entire city of Amelie (and much of Hawthorne) honors all of the legal, Presiding Gods, with each temple performing a great act of service in the name of their patron deity.

There are no official holidays during Huecana.
Many areas also have local holidays and traditions. These may be tied to cultural customs or powerful beings that have influence on the area. Each temple in Amelie has its own set of deity specific holidays. Druidic or more nature based communities have their own holidays related to their environments. Even Geduh has its own set of holidays, almost all of which remain from Era Mundane.
