Winter Solstice
20
December 2009
Tomorrow is the Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year. Write something that has to do with the winter solstice or with its equivalent on your world if you have your own writing world.
Do the people of your world have any special observances of the winter solstice? Does it have a special name that is derived from some kind of legend? Is it merely another ordinary day to the people of your world? Perhaps it is a day when all but the priesthood hide indoors while the priests spend the night walking the streets to chase away the demons and chant in the new year?
How does your lead character feel about the winter solstice? Is it of any significance to them? What about the antagonist of your story? Why would it have some significance for either one of them?
