Orange Warrior

The Festival of the Orange Warrior was once an important event and tradition within Ralmulash, over time it is seen as antiquated and something that only the older folks still celebrate. A significant part of the festival involves a theatrical play retelling the tales of the Orange Warrior.
== History ==
The Festival of the Orange Warrior and the theatrical play are based on the live of the Svellbjargheim warrior Erikr Rolfson, who joined Ralmulash as a sword for hire. During this period he would develop a personal love for the country. Saying that his favourite thing were the many different beard styles. He decided to grow out his thick orange beard and add in traditional dwarven braids, eventually earning him the nickname the Orange Warrior. Erikr would also meet his wife here, the dwarf Kari who had an even thicker beard than Erikr. But that is why he fell in love with her in the first place. The Orange Warrior would however gain fame as a valiant warrior during a series of wars fought deep within the caves under the Zapno mountains, as horrid creatures made its way into the many different mountains homes. The place where Erikr was living would eventually be overrun, but he stayed behind to help the civilians remaining in direct contact with the Sterling Council of Ralmulash. This bravery would award him a nice plot of land where he lived with his wife for years to come. Three years after his death, the events that Erikr experienced during the cave wars would be turned in a festival and theatrical play.
== Festival and play ==
The festival was a big success and everywhere proceedings where held in honour of the Orange Warrior. The theatrical play was an even bigger success than the festival itself, with people travelling from Ralmulash and beyond to see the act. The play was so popular that multiple shows would be held, instead of a few during the week of the festival itself. Soon the play would be on for months. The performance would eventually be hold throughout the year, with the show being extended for the years to come. Eventually the festival itself would slowly fate away and become fully dominated by the play. Since then many decades have passed and the show keeps getting extended. However, many of especially the younger generation wonder for how long the show will go on. With the Orange Warrior now seemingly seeing more a legend than a truth. Therefore many younger folks have started going to play, even seeing it as old. For how much longer can the same story be told, they wonder. A year ago it seemed like the show would come to an end, yet new extensions were announced.
