History

%% The easy way to add holidays is the Holidays tab, under History. You can also write them here,
one per line: "Name: day Month". Add years in brackets for when it was kept, and a note after a comma:

  • Midwinter Feast: 1 Frostmoon
  • Founders' Day: 3 Frostmoon (from 1012)
  • Feast of Lanterns: 14 Seedtime (until 1050), forgotten after the Grey Plague
  • Harvest Night: last Moonday of Seedtime
    Lines that start with a date are history notes, shown on the timeline and calendar:
  • 1050: The Grey Plague. Nobody lights the lanterns that autumn. %%
