Festival of the Eye

This tradition undoubtedly had its origins back in the days when magic-users honored the moons which gave them power. It takes place during the rare time when all three moons are in alignment, forming what appears to be a great eye in the sky.

According to ancient legend, on this night wizards went from door to door, offering their services in the performance of minor magics without charge. They were given food and small gifts in return. When wizards fell into ill repute in the days before the Cataclysm, this custom ceased. But now children go from door co door, pretending to be wizards and performing tricks. In return, the children are given their choice of thesecookies.
