The first new moon after the solstice was of particular importance in this region of Ivalice. It celebrated a new beginning, an end to the previous shortening of days, and a start towards longer days, eventual warmer nights, and more time that could be spent outdoors instead of being cooped inside. Admittedly, there would be a darkness before the dawn in these regards as the worst of winter had yet to pass, but it was a small price to pay for the warmth of summer to come again. Regardless, of the cold soon to come, there was a positive spirit in the air. This time of year held a certain level of hope, a forward looking into the positive, into what could be, and what the following months would undoubtedly hold. It was a hope for change. And change things would. All districts in the city had been decked out in festive decorations in the colors of blue, silver, green and gold to represent what was soon to come – blue and silver – the ice and cold of winter, and what would undoubtedly follow – green and gold – the spring, and prosperity of the spring and summer. While many would celebrate the night away tonight, wishing the last day away with drinks, food, and cheer in private parties or groups of friends in taverns, the city wide celebration was yet to come on the day to follow. |
