Happy Holidays from the White Forest!

For obvious reasons the faeries of The White Forest don't celebrate Christmas or Hanukkah or any other of our earth-bound holidays. They do, however, respect the need for festivals and celebrations. They believe in sacred frivolity.

The White Forest faeries actually spend a great deal of time celebrating. They celebrate the transition of the seasons, they celebrate whenever any faerie's destiny-markings are revealed, and they celebrate all the harvests, big and small.

The most important White Forest festival is the annual Festival of the Elements (during the transition from the grow season to the green season).  This three-day festival reveals the new arts, crafts, inventions, and magic from each of the elemental realms. More importantly, it is the time of renewal for the Hourglass of Protection.  The High Priestess and Council of Elders must perform the rituals in the exact manner to oversee this event.  Once the Hourglass has been renewed, the festivities proceed on a grand scale!

Other major festivals include the Twilight Festival, when the green season transitions into the gray season, and the Grand Masquerade, when the gray season transitions into the grow season.  Each elemental realm and village-nest also has its own celebrations.  As a matter of fact, it is difficult to find a day in the White Forest where there is not some sort of celebration going on somewhere.

So you don't miss out on anything, the White Forest residents recommend you celebrate each and every day of this next year.
