Festival of Hide and Seek

The Festival of Hide and Seek is a celebration of halfling origin, occurring at the end of spring. At the beginning of the week, girls craft charms; during the week, boys attempt to steal these charms; at the end of the week, there is a party, where girls dance with whatever boy ended up with their charms.
While the festival's origins are unknown, some scholars say it dates from before the Inundation, others from during the years of high water when halflings needed to be tricksy to stay safe on ships. It is known that in 1au it was popularized by Wellby and Velma Dovesky, children of the Viscount of Rabbitton.
