The Poor's Gold

The Poor's Gold is an ancient, elven festival that used to take place in the old Highborne Empire. Every time a new season appeared, the less prominent Highborne had the ability to prove themselves to the Queen's men by honouring their Night elven cousins[1] by bringing them food and good words from the Queen, as well as blessings and other forms of defence or fortification[2].
The festival was selfish in nature, coming from the Highborne, as the organisers' interests were to persuade the poor Night elves to join the lower millita in an attempt to strengthen the Highborne Empire's control over the said place.
These festivals usually took place at the margins of the Empire or far away from a certain centre of interest, in low-life provinces where temples or governmental presence is reduced or inexistent[3]. The festival wasn't official in itself, but more like a tradition: the government had no control or actual knowledge of this festival, however the participants were always paid for the deeds they've done... to the Empire.
It was originally founded by Fenathe'al Moonspear.
