Mabriam's Day -
Celebrated in the small towns and villages throughout the known land this feastday falls on the eighteenth day of Tammaz. Labor is avoided at all costs, including any cooking which is always done the day before. Some rise before sunrise however on the theory that they have done any necessary work before the day has begun. Young women traditionally play tricks on the younger men of the village. The "target" is suppossed to indicate the girl's interest, but often times they work in groups and keep their actions as secretive as possible. If the young man guesses his tormenter then he receives a reward from whomever responsible. These "rewards" can come in the form of a kiss from whomever thought up the idea to a kiss from each young woman involved.
