Seasonal Calendar, Summer 515 AV
Summer in Endrykas is a time of trade, gathering, and training. Pavilions work together to prepare for the following seasons, especially winter, when there are less readily available fresh fruits and vegetables to go round. Grains, seeds, nuts, and fruits are dried out and preserved. Warriors hone their battle skills and take advantage of the fine weather. Rare metals are traded with merchants from Syliras, and livestock are fattened up on the tall grass, of which there is plenty.
3rd – A young man is struck by lightning and as a result claims to have a direct link to the god, Zulrav. No one can make any sense of the man’s babbling in the chimes before his death, except for the words, “The dark one is near.”
7th - Foreign traders from Syliras arrive with precious metals and other useful and rare items to begin trading with the people of Endrykas. The city of tents is a lot more crowded than usual.
20th - The Diamond Clan hosts a training day for anyone wielding a sword, axe, war hammer, or dagger that wants to come and hone their skills. Some of their top warriors are there to give free lessons and part with their knowledge on how to use these weapons effectively for attack and defence purposes.
27th - The Heidecraft family from The Threaded Hide seek a new apprentice to teach the tricks of the trade in all things to do with leather-work, including skinning, tanning, and shaping hide into pieces of armour or shields.
34th - A two headed snake is caught alive outside of Endrykas by a high ranking member of the Ruby Clan. Some believe it is a bad omen. The creature is put up for sale and sold to the highest bidder.
40th - The Emerald Clan hosts a training day for anything to do with ranged weapons, including bows, spears, and javelins. At the 14th Bell they take out a handful of hunting parties for those who seek to put their newfound skills to the test.
42nd – All Seven Clans agree on a water restriction from the Uvic Lake. The Watch is charged with policing this until the 69th when the restriction is finally lifted after a four day deluge of rain.
51st – Ancient cave paintings are discovered in the Under-watch dating back hundreds of years. The paintings seem to depict early uses of personal and world magic. The Under-watch guard the entrance to the cave closely, but a second entrance is discovered on the west side of the Uvic Lake.

55 - A member of The Watch is killed in a Zith attack just south of the Uvic Lake and two more Zith are spotted flying over Endrykas later that evening. A reward is posted for anyone who manages to capture and kill one of these creatures.
60th - The Ruby clan offer a class in weaving, yarn spinning, fabric dyeing, and sculpting for the day (at the cost of the materials used), anyone interested in learning one of these skills is more than welcome to attend.
69th – Each of the seven clans sacrifice one of their prize Zibri to Zulrav for the much needed rain that fell over the last four days. Most of the city gathers at the heart to watch the offerings.
73rd – The remains of three Glassbeaks are dumped outside the Wind-Knotted Gates of Endrykas. The Watch is sent to investigate. Strange rumours are passed about the city, some think is it a threat from a neighbouring region, others believe the Gods are angry.
77th - A strange silver treasure-chest appears on the morning of the 77th. When you look inside, the chest appears to be empty. No amount of strength can move or lift the chest. When you place something inside the chest and close the lid, you will open it to find a gift. Not all gifts are as pleasant as they first appear, while others are invaluable.
