    Religious event

    A three-day tournament attended by 30 to 50 local knights and held at the West Common of Kiban in the month of Nolus. It is the only Harnic tournament with a strong Peonian theme, if only the aspect of honorable love. The Angyla Festival, an important Peonian celebration, is held at the same time, although most of the activities are of little interest to the larani-worshiping nobility. However, on Angyla even that is gaining popularity wiht the participating knights is a variation of "Burning the Flag". This variation entails two teams of mounted knights armed with rebated broadswords attempting to caputre the opposing team's flag and throw it on a bonfire for burning.
