Fall Festival

The day dawns later and later as winter approaches. Many wake up to see that the ships in the harbour have gone with the evening tide in a bid to cross the ocean before the passages close for the winter.

A few small boats are already in harbour casting their nets. Today everything they catch will be taken to Suncross Plaza where it will be cooked in huge bonfires and fed to the citizens. Everywhere you will turn you will see men and women sharing food and drink.

The Fall Festival is a day of celebrations and excesses. A day of thanks to the Goddess Hoi. A day of gluttony and lust. A day of excitement and exploration before the long and cold nights of winter.

No one works and everyone sleeps late. At midday as its tradition the faithful will gather around the Shrine of Kupen for a sermon. Word that an Inquisitor as arrived in the city has spread and many are curious to see her.

Voah - You have plans for the celebrations and will join the Friar at the Shrine. In the evening you will attend the gathering at the Stoneshade Keep.

Blackwolf - You have been invited to attend the Keep as well in the evening. How you fill the first part of your day is up to you.

Wim - Armed with two casks of ale to sell. You find a spot in a corner of the Suncross Plaza in the early morning.

Hunter - Early in the day you are called to see the a knight at the Keep. He informs you that next week you will be joining a small trading party travelling west of the city as a scout. You will report to Arbiter Voah Sansuur at first light, in five days, at the Keep.
Jiyn - The night before the Festival, one of the sergeants calls you up to the Keep and tells you that next week you will be joining a small trading party travelling west of the city as a guard. You will be reporting to Arbiter Voah Sansuur. At first light in five days at the Keep.

Greyriver - With orders to report to the Keep next week when you and your group are set to replace the older soldier that have completed their tenure and are moving into their plots of land, you are left to enjoy the Fall Festival as you see fit.

Freespit - With winter coming and sparse game in the nearby forests you will be spending your time butchering and preserving meat for the coming season. You are looking forward to the excitement and freedom that the Festival brings.

Melandra - You also receive an invitation to the evening party at the Keep. The Lord Commander insisted you attend and he will not take a no for an answer.
