Around the year 2100 AC the House of Calabay was just starting to make great headway when the Leader at the time was nearly killed in a ship accident. But he was saved, not by his own people, but by sea elves. Because of this, the House of Calabay celebrates each year the Sea Festival in memory of this great day.
Gifts of food and shells are left along the shores for the sea elves, which sometimes gather them up before the sea washes them away. Great feasts and dancing happen upon the beach and even the nobility run around the beaches with no shoes on and join in the fun. Criminals are forgiven their crimes (if they do not involve murder or treason) and sometimes debts are forgiven as well.
Small gifts are given to those a person deems close and some men like to purpose on this day, hoping to have the blessing of the sea elves themselves.
