A Phantom Festival

The festival in Ashlynn's memory was filled with the bustle of people, the sounds of laughter and music and the smells of dozens of dishes overlapping with the salty air of the fresh sea breeze. 

The Holy Festival of Light was the largest festival of the year in Blackwell County. In places like Lothian March, the Lord's Harvest in the fall was even bigger and Ashlynn had heard that in the northern territories, Mid Winter's Night held the crown for the largest public celebration, but in Blackwell, the Holy Festival of Light had always been the busiest and most enthusiastically welcomed festival of the year.
