Gala of Southern Monsoons

Date: 4th Day of Resplendent Water.

Type: Social Gala.

Host: The Imperial Satrap of Harbourhead, currently Cathak Voper.

Location: Imperial Satrap’s Palace, Kirigast (Harbourhead).

Invitations: Open to Dynasts. All of the Dynasts in Harbourhead and the 47th Imperial Legion deployed there attend, along with a few Dynasts traveling in from the Blessed Isle and neighbouring satrapies, such as Paragon and Varangia. Some non-Dynastic Harbourhead natives of prominent status also receive invitations.

Description: Guests wear elaborate and inventive costumes, seeking to outdo each other in complexity and opulence, while retaining the mobility to dance and perform music. Of all the costume galas held by Harbourhead's Dynastic residents, the Southern Monsoons Gala tends to be the most adherent to Immaculate doctrines, its costumes trying to match both the elaborately ostentatious and the conservatively aniconic.
