Midwinter Festival.
It is not the last festival of the year, but the first festival of the year, on the last day of January.
Each race has customs of gathering together for this festival, and they have different names for it.
In Thacel, the official name for this festival is the Winter Banquet, and according to local tradition, local lords will hold banquets before the new year begins, to form alliances or renew alliances with other lords and exchange gifts.
But for ordinary people, this is the day of dead winter, as winter has just passed its halfway point, often the coldest day of the year, so it is also the sacred day of the Frost Maiden Olyure. Her followers also revel on this day, holding various cold-related celebrations, such as running naked through the ice and snow, or prayers in the severe cold.
