Holidays

We have not had the time or wit about us to mark the year appropriately according to our cultures or Gods. We have let pass many holidays that uplift the spirit and memorialize the fallen. Might I suggest we think now of such things?

Keryth’rina (Memorium): On February 20th of each year, both Sylvan and High Elves reverently reflect upon the Old Age, and the fall of the Elven Kingdom at the hands of Uelrog and his armies. It is said over half of the large population of Elves were massacred that day, and candles are lit in remembrance of not only those deaths, but all civilian deaths that have occurred due to war and conflict.

This is early in the month perhaps, and an Elven custom, but who here does not feel keenly the need to remember the deaths of the innocent over the past two months? A large portion of our fellow subjects died recently. I can think of no better way of honoring the dead of all races than to share these memorials with our Elven brethren.

'Tis indeed an Elven tradition, but if candles are lit for not just their own fallen brethren but all, I lend my torch to the cause.

Any who come before me, elf or no, who wishes to light a candle to remember those who are gone, need only ask me, and I shall grant you what I have made.

The Smile Bruer teeches that we must keep our fallen frends aliv thru song and storee. Sit around the fir, share a drink with comrads, and tell thare storees. So long az thay ar kept in your harts, thay shall always stay with us.

I will be away from the proper on the 20th of this month. With that in mind I have decided to do some candle lighting and remembrance for those we lost in the past months. I welcome anyone to come. You may bring a candle or torch if you desire to light something. I am not a man of faith so I invite any clergy that wish to come and say a few words to do so. I believe the best time for such a thing would be before the feast to honor those who will sadly not be joining us. Perhaps at 5 bells.

Does anyone have an appropriate location they may recommend for such a thing?

This is important enough it should be done AT feast. Perhaps one of our Clergy can do so at the Benediction?

I will not be able to report to the Proper this Feast, I am up to my neck in children that need seeing to. I will likely be able to devote more time to the Proper next feast and hopefully have some Fosters to meet with.
