21: Midwinter
Low the tide, low the light
Comes the sun again
Thea Gilmore, Sol Invictus
Today is the winter solstice here in the northern hemisphere, a significant enough event that I discussed it last year and here we are again.
To spin it to a plot for a fantasy setting with a mythological Weird Level, what if somebody had to actually go and bring back the sun?
Some Egyptian gods have to protect it on a nightly basis. The Buried Moon is a famous Lincolnshire folk tale. Are your characters up to the task?
This year in particular it is also The Great Conjunction, which fans of The Dark Crystal might pause on hearing.
