Events of the Sind year

To make my life easier, I will write this in the Thyatian calendar system.

The Sind calendar system can be found here.

Vatermont 28:
The Festival of lights (Rushnikesret), commenrates the loss and return of Lal, the young son of a legendary Sindian hero. Sindhis line every street with lanterns draped by colourful cloths. Adults spend most of the day playing dice games. When the sun sets, people pretend to search for the lost boy, three hours later, they "discover" a boy chosen to play the part of Lal and they all go home to lively feasts.

Thaumont 28:
Day of Irresponsibility. This is the last day of the Sinhi year. Celebrations include burning bonfires into the night. dancing in the street, and playing practical jokes.

Flaurmont 1:
First day of the Sindhi year. Visits to friends and family, gifts and ritual bathing in the Asanda river are the order of the day.

Felmont 17:
feast of the snakes. Hundreds of snake charmers gather in market squares with their cobras. Sindhis bring offerings of milk to the snakes; at night they light up every corner of their houses and parade through the streets making as much noise as possible with gongs, cymbals, drums and horns.

Fyrmont 24-28:
The calming of the seas. Along the coast, the people of Sind gather in colourful tent cities and throw offerings of offerings of coconut and flower wreaths into the sea, entrating it to calm itself and end the monsoons so vessels can once more sail in safety.

Sviftmont 3:
Birth of Dandin. On this day, Sindhis celebrate the birthday of Dandin, an incarnation of one of the gods. Clerics parade statues of Dandin through the streets on the backs of elephants; people feast and dance and entertain the statues with games, dramas and competitions.

Eirmont 16:

Kladmont 2:
Animal day. In Sind, this is an offical holiday for draft animals.No animal carries a pack or rider, pulls a plow or vehicle, or turns a wheel for the entire day. Sindhis mark the day with horse, elephant, camel and bullock races - all accomplished by Sindhis lining the streets and urging the riderless animals on with shouts and waving of arms.
