'''The Dragon's Feast'''
:A very old fireside story tells that in the years soon following [[the Sundering]], three [[dragons]] came into the world. One was a dragon of wind, one a dragon of fire and one a dragon of water. Each staked out a third of Avendar's main continent as their hunting grounds. Wind in the west, fire in the north, and water in the south. The three would issue forth from the strong places of their homes at times and battle each other over what are now the vast [[Arien Plains]], blasting everying within many miles. The legend tells an old pig farmer, fed up with the destruction caused to his people's farms by the warring dragons, fed his entire herd on carrion and swampwater for a season, then one midsummer's day led the pigs to where the dragons would come to battle. Naturally, the dragons fought each other for the pigs and ate up every one. They became so ill from the feast of fat, sicky pigs that they flew back to their homes and never again came to battle their neighbours, convinced as they were that the pickings were much better around their own homes. Midsummer's day has been celebrated as the Dragons' Feast ever since. Of course, this is probably just a legend, as [[dragons]] aren't nearly that stupid. Copious amounts of pork are nonetheless consumed on the Dragons' Feast, be the tale true or not.
