Diwali is the Thavnairian festival of lights.
Diwali celebrates the victory of good over evil, light over darkness, and knowledge over ignorance. The lights of Diwali are lit in honor of the Lady of Bliss, Lakshmi, patron of beauty and the Goddess of Pakshee's Ananta staff. Ananta observance of Diwali is a spiritual affair, focused on storytelling and togetherness, including the bonds of found family similar to the Thavnairian holiday of Raksha Bandhan.
Another aspect of Diwali is a seeking of prosperity. As Diwali starts the traditional year in Radz-at-Han, it is a moment to seek favor for the year ahead. Fortunetelling and gambling are commonplace as is offering prayers for success and wealth to the Sisters (or Nald'thal if you're Eorzean) for the year ahead.
Celebrate this major annual festival with the Bandee Pakshee, your source of Hannish comforts and pleasures in the cold climes of Coerthas, and light a candle for beauty, family, and fortune.
