17 ((Wealsun))
Celebrated among the ((Flannae)), the ((Marklands)), and in ((Druidic)) communities. Seven-year olds are carried blindfolded and barefoot into the woods, and must find a new name before returning to the village feast. Each child is released separately and alone. They are guided by rowdy singing (and a huge bonfire if they are slow), and when they return they are carried into the centre of the gathering to whisper their name into the fire. This is their ((Truename)), with all that implies. It should be noted that ((rangers)) and ((priests)) of ((Elhonna)) are also especially busy this night, quietly patrolling the area and looking out for the children's safety. In friendly lands some ((elves)) are also drawn to this sort of role, and it is considered a good omen for a child to successfully spot one.
