Aelifev

Aelifev (eh-lih-feef, meaning Day of Honesty) is a solemn holiday celebrated in mid-April observed by Yugovia, Maideria, Dutland, Lyvena, and Jonathia that is particularly important to the Chyatakian people. It is associated with pillaging, honesty and physical strength. Celebrations last eight days, usually between the third Monday in April and the following Monday after that. Traditions include public and private signing of documents, playing of instruments and telling of stories. Different faiths celebrate Aelifev differently, ranging from styles of music to choice of clothing and celebration location.
The tale of Aelifev goes as the following; one time in the 670s, a group of bandits charged through what is now the Yugovian town of Slovebdor, pillaging it in the process, while also kidnapping women and children and fighting men standing up for their village. However, eight days later, the bandits suddenly returned, being honest and apologetic as to what they did, returning all the stolen goods. It is unknown why they did this. Scientists state that the story may have taken place in 679 AD, which meant the raid took place on the 18th of April, 679, and finished eight days later on the 25th.
