This yearly Duthelm celebration takes place on Hearthseek 15 and celebrates the night that the great Citadel fell to the onslaught of the ogre hordes. It is a night long celebration of feasting, fighting, drinking and gambling. Every debauchery is indulged in. Prisoners are executed publicly and their blood used as water in the fountains.
War Night is exceptionally brutal. Mock battles, wrestling matches and sports often degenerate into actual fighting. Overexuberance leads to street fights and riots. Tavern brawls are not only expected, but actually planned. Those who do not wish to participate in this festival usually stay home and lock their doors.
