Autumn fall across the peak's of Lhavit and at first it, the season is looking up. Jumpstarting the harvest, the three Tower's host a multitude of parties open to all. The season looks up as trade and the harvest wraps up and the city's stores are filled to the brim. Talora and Aysel are actively reinventing the Council of Radiance, much to the displeasure of some and the excitement of others. Many think Lhavit is prospering and reaching it's height in happiness as the year comes to a close. Soon this thought is put aside as strange events begin to occur. At first they are only unusual, but when tragedy hits the city finds an underlying theme of fear they've not felt in a long time. Something is coming, but what is it?
[1st] A new drug is uncovered and banned from use for its danger.
[6th] Merchant's, guided by the Shinya, depart to participate in the last trade of the year with the Isur.
[11th] Twins in the Twilight Tower have their birthday during the first half of the night. Aysel attends, however Talora does not. The city celebrates and there are rumors of Talora paying the Lord Twilight a visit, but no one has seen her at the party.
[22nd] The Moon Festival is held. The Ethereal Opera house choreographs a spontaneous dance in the middle of the streets and Aysel amuses the crowd with his intoxication.
[27th]The Silk Palace has discounts for costume creation for the Masquerade Ball.
[30th]A Masquerade Ball is held at the Dawn Tower. The most impressive costumes are ranked and given a reward. Most Ball-goers stay until well into the next day, enjoying the festivity.
[32nd]The autumn harvest yields a surplus of food for the winter and the city celebrates with a feast. Children carve squashes and families get together for small reunions. Trade with the Endals of Wind Reach ends well and the Inarta stay an extra night to take part in the harvest celebration.
[35th] Ayzel and Talora speak of corruption and unbalance within the Council of Radiance, citizens come forward to speak of their displeasure.
[40th]Not to be outdone by the other two towers, the Dusk Tower hosts a Ball as well. The theme is devoted to Zintila and the Tower sets of an amazing firework show afterwards. The people are awed by the show, but the party barely lasts until dawn.
[41st] Snow falls just above the city line, but falls into rain due to the warm skyglass. Citizens begin to prepare for winter.
[45th] Aysel and Talora announce that the Council has been corrupt and is no longer benefiting the citizens. A meeting is called between the Shinya, Seiza without the Council of Radiance.
[51st] An unknown follower of Ionu creates and illusion in the Sartu Plaza and the morning market-goers are plunged into a moonless night. The illusion only lasts a few hours, but the market finds its activity drop severely as a result, giving the remaining shopper's an eerie feeling as they finish their errands.
[57th] In the day prior and the early morning, the Okomo are scarcely seen in the city and are found herding towards the Sharai peak. They refuse to interact with the citizens and appear extremely agitated. After noon rest, when the citizens return to the streets, they find that all the Okomo have disappeared without a trace. The usually calm Lhavitians are agitated and fearful, the unrest is clearly worn on every face.
[58th] The second day without the Okomo and with no council, the citizens grow angry and gather in the Surya Plaza to have their voices heard. Reason is tossed aside and the citizens decide band together to go down the mountains and find the Okomo, only accompanied by the Shinya for safety at the last minute. [Seasonal Event]
[63rd] After a long wait, a new Council of Radiance is revealed to the people.
[69th] During the middle of the day, a particularly large earthquake causes a landslide on the Zintia Peak. Many lives are lost.
[70th] The city goes into mourning over the tragedy. All traces of the festivities from the beginning of the season have vanished and the oncoming winter is looking dim.
[71st]Victims of the landslide are given a proper funeral and most houses light a candle in respect.
[80th] The Star's Shadow hosts half-off drinks during the second half of the night, few take advantage of the offer.
[83rd] One day is dedicated to the election of the Councilors on each peak. Citizens residing in each peak as encouraged to vote for their representative in the Council.
[88th] An elderly man with an even older and very large Okomo ride into town. The timing of his arrival is odd, since travel is near impossible, and he doesn't speak unless offered tea. Citizens are intrigued and if the pair are approached, the old man reads their fortune or reveals a secret about themselves that they did not know.
