The Five Feasts

There were five types of feast you'd have in your life.

The first you wouldn't remember, as it was for your birth. Your mother would be fed well, and all guests would bring one long lasting item for the family.

The annual winterend feast was simple enough to understand, whatever food was left was consumed before the new season.

The feast to decide a new leader was loud, chaotic, and effective.

The feast to ask to marry was quiet, intimate, and often without result.

The final feast, people would come, celebrate your life, then take a food item from you.
