The festivities of the Unity Celebration include many things, from craftsman showing off their works to bakeries creating some of the best pastries in the known world. Tournaments for jousting, colf, horseshoes and even wrestling were among favorites of the people. Any cause to celebrate prosperity and unity, the people will happily join in.
"We have sacrificed loved ones, friends and family. We have slaughtered our own kind. But the spirits demanded we stop, for our future has much in store. They have plans for all of humanity, not just as three Kingdoms, but as one people as well!" - High King Romulus, addressing the people at the start of the first annual Unity Celebration.One of the most important events of the week comes on the eve of the final day. A competition within each of the three kingdoms, where sculptors, painters and more present their work of art to their respective king. The winner get paid a fair reward and gets their artwork displayed within the Royal Estate. Many of the artists prefer to depict a part of the journey of the three kingdoms leading up to unification.
History
In the ancient history of humanity, there were many clans and tribes. Groups of humans roaming nomadically. As time went on, technological advancement began to lift these tribes up. Irrigation, aqueducts, armor made of metals, houses of lumber, some of stone. Amongst these tribes stood the Snagrians, made up of powerful warriors and wise druyds. Their leaders, Chief Romulus and his brother, the druid Remus.
Romulus and Remus shared a vision of all human tribes working together but maintaining the freedom they much enjoy. But at a major cost. Remus must permanently take the form of a saber toothed Dire Wolf using a rare ability taught to him in his vision by a nymph. Both of them saw this vision and understood what needed to be done. This pivotal moment set forth the subjugation of many surrounding tribes, bringing their leaders into the fold as noble houses in the now feudalized Kingdom of Snagria.
In nearby lands, two other human Kingdoms emerged in a similar fashion. However, when met on open fields in the west and south of Snagria, Romulus, and at his side, the now turned Dire Wolf Remus, didn't meet armies, but rather, the kings of the other kingdoms. Having been informed that they saw the visions, too, they bent the knee and declared King Romulus, High King of the Three Kingdoms.
From that point on, High King Romulus declared unity week, to celebrate the coming of a new era and end of human on human bloodshed.
