Q: What is the Festival of Maglif?
A: The Festival of Maglif is a week long holiday on Turtle Island off of Alondale which takes place the first week of Flower Moon. During this festival, blood is not allowed to be spilled nor lives taken as ordained by the Mother of All, Lady Nitrix. Those who kill will find themselves executed upon conclusion of the festival at sundown, on the eighth day. Visitors tend to be housed within Rutherglen or the Sanctuary.

Customs:
- Magicians from all over are invited to show off their magical abilities.
- Offerings are given to Calius and Nitrix along with regional pantheons.
- The first day is used for meditation and sobriety as well as soul searching. It is known as the Day of Reflection. On this day, one fasts from sunrise to sunrise of the second day. It is said the Gods and Goddesses of all pantheons, hear one’s hopes, dreams and prayers. The Day of Reflection is meant to be a chance to see who they are, where they have been in the past and where they will go in the future.
- Many go into a trance during this time where they observe nothing but their inner thoughts and many come out of this trance totally changed in personality and lifestyle.
- On the fifth day, the Day of Vigil, is one homage is paid to those who have gone before and the rebirth of life each Haru. Lanterns and candles are set into sea and air to guide those souls on the Resolution Journey (the journey to the afterlife). One may then choose to take part in Valor or the Night Watchers where they stand guard solemnly or accompany the lights a quarter of the way to Souldes. On the evening of the Day of Vigil, it is said mysterious events occur that can lead to insanity and disappearances. The shadows seem thicker and more menacing and the heavenly lights go out.
- On the seventh day, the Day of Repose, it is a day for one may seek passage to the Temple of Heaven where one can rest within tranquility and seek advice from healers and priests. It is, in general, a day of relaxation and from noon to moonhigh, weddings and feasts tend to occur.
