A festive holiday occuring every twenty-nine [[Achaean]] [[year|years]], the prominence of the thornless rose [[constellations|constellation]] heralds the arrival of '''Logosmas'''. Logosmas is marked by a variety of [[Logosmas decorations|decorations]] throughout the lands, from mistletoe and boughs of holly, to Logosmas trees and stockings for stuffing. Celebrants may also spin draydels and gamble using chocolate coinage. For the more [[combat]]-oriented, sharpened candy canes may be substituted for swords. These items are available for purchase from [[Merentesh]], who has been stocking them seasonally since 235 AF. In the year 467 AF, however, these wares were moved to the [[Festivities Annex]] in [[New Thera]], under the management of Merentesh's employee, [[Makesh]]. | A festive holiday occuring every twenty-nine [[Achaean]] [[year|years]], the prominence of the thornless rose [[constellations|constellation]] heralds the arrival of '''Logosmas'''.
