Celebrate the Holidays!

Luminalia – The Glow Festival
Luminalia is an annual holiday celebrated by both the Banu and Humanity on December 22.
It originated as the irregularly-held Banu festival 'tsikti efanga' (Glow Festival), and is marked by the lighting of ceremonial lamps that stay lit until their fuel is consumed (about 34,000 beats / 2 Standard Earth Days).
While the lamps are burning, all Banu, no matter where they are, are considered one Souli (a group of cohabiting Banu who have formed an alliance centered around a specific, shared skillset).
They invite friends, business associates, and passing strangers into their Soulis and give them gifts so they will always have something to sell.
Humans first participated in the festival when a Banu ship-repair Souli on Cestulus (Davien II) lit their lamps and invited the nearby Humans to celebrate with them in 2438. The United Empire of Earth (UEE) officially recognized Luminalia as a holiday in 2557 after it became a widely practiced seasonal tradition.
Today, Banu and Humans commemorate Luminalia with gift-exchanges, present hunts, glowing lights, food and drink, and gatherings of family, friends, business associates, and acquaintances. Homes and businesses are typically decorated in green and red.

As Luminalia grew in popularity, Human merchants modified the traditional gift-sharing by hiding empty wrapped packages that could be returned unopened in exchange for surprises, such as credits or small toys. The extra footfall driven into their stores increased holiday sales and became a tradition in its own right.
Of course, New Babbage’s traders have not missed the opportunity to join this tradition and invite you to snowy microTech to look for the gift-boxes yourself and sell them at the trading kiosks.
In the spirit of Luminalia, you can also help those who have not been able to give presents to their loved ones personally, as everywhere around the ‘verse, people need reliable traders to bring brightly wrapped gift boxes to friends and business associates.
