Exquaestio celebrates three specials holidays every year. The Festival of Becoming occurs in the spring shortly after planting and lasts from dawn to dawn. The Festival is supposed to remind people of goals, destinations, and things rarely seen. The Feast of Thanks is a post-harvest festival taking place after the harvest has come in and preparations have been made for winter. The Feast lasts from dawn to dusk, and is a day for recognizing one's blessings and the efforts of people throughout the previous year. The Winter Memorial is the most solemn holiday of the Ministry's year. Taking place in the depths of winter, it begins at dusk and ends at dawn. It is a day for people to remember their ancestors and other departed who affected their lives. I'd like to solicit opinions on the sorts of activities that might be held during each holiday. For example, if materials for kites are available (are they BTW?) kite flying would be a common activity during the Festival of Becoming. Other Thoughts?
