Legend's Day

Legend's Day was a major festival celebrated throughout Afbarkeean and Tunguu on day: 33 of each year. It was the biggest festival of the year in many areas, and marked that anniversary of the enlightenment of the Badkalden, as well as her death exactly 50 years later. As such, it was a day of both celebration and mourning.

Many cultures had their own traditional Legend's Day customs, but some universal practices included: attending church, praising the Aba, donating to the Church and sharing with those in need. Another common tradition that was almost universal was the recounting of the legend of the Badkalden, which was often done by the oldest member of a family or community. To sin on Legend's Day was considered to be more serious than to sin on a normal day. It was also common for slaves to be excused of their duties on Legend's Day.

Because of its strong religious overtones, Legend’s Day celebrations were typically not as indulgent and uninhibited as other festivals, and alcohol consumption was generally frowned upon.
