Greyhawk Holiday
Great Moon's Glory
Type: Religious
Frequency: Annual
Date(s): Readying 11
Observed by: Faithful of Atroa, Celestian, the Old Faith, Telchur
Significance: Luna full and Celene new.

The night of Great Moon's Glory on Readying 11th, when Luna is full but Celene is new. It is holy to Celestian, and a time when offerings are left to Atroa to beg her to come early and to Telchur to request that he peacefully leave. Druids of the Old Faith are known to also hold this night as auspicious, but few outside their circles know the details.

It's possible that this is the same as the elven holiday known as Faerieluck.
