The leaves are coming down, and so, the faithful hope, are a few old habits. Shedfall is the great festival of letting go, and since the High Priestess dreamed the Sacred Triangle, it has been kept in honor of Nhalor, the Hollow Wing.
The Rite of Shedding
Every faithful sheds one thing before witnesses this season. Stand before the guild, name what you are letting go, and make a small physical gesture of release: vendor an item, unequip a piece of armor, or simply kneel. The witnesses answer: Send it after the First Skin. Officers will hold Shedding gatherings on dates announced in guild chat and on Discord.
The clearing of the bank
Anything in the guild bank that no one has touched in a year will be set aside and offered first to members who can use it, then to crafters, then to the vendor. This causes arguments every year. The arguments are also shed.
The Feast of Giving
On the first night of Shedfall, every faithful brings one thing to give away, and no one brings anything for themselves. The gifts go into a pile, and each person takes one that is not their own. No one knows who gave what. Every gift is a Gift From Beneath. The feast ends with a Basking that lasts as long as anyone can stay still.
Nhalor's minute
At dusk on each night of Shedfall, the faithful who are online stand in silence for one minute, hands open and palms down, and say: What I held today, I set down. It is a small thing. It is surprisingly hard. Try it.
Dates and times for guild events are set by the officers and posted in game. Glory to Xal'Reth.
