Eimr — a festival day, The Emergence. Falls between Eiveil and Rwyth. Belongs to no month.

Notes

Spring equinox. Marks the passage from the Personal months to the Family months. Observed rather than dated: each city-state declares the day by its own reckoning, so the festivals fall on different days in different cities and no two agree exactly. The five festival days sit outside the eight months, which is why the year is 365 days while the months account for only 360.
