The High Hallows

(word-help follows)

The High Hallows mark the tide of wending from Summer to Winter, when the reaches of the two worlds of Mind and Reyndom can meld in thwaerness toward Edhlifrith and Menning.

The Hallows begin with Hallowevening, when the drowsy edhli-world is waked as the Sagen-guysts burst forth from the Otherworld of Deep Mind in a Wild Frolic oer our Efni-world of Reyndom, making merry jinks.  And gumen-folk do don the guise and don the wise of the Sagen-guyst they'd like to be that night, and gang along with the romping Rouse to fire the night with edtovering, as the worlds meld as one.

With the dawning comes the next Hallow, the Hallow-Allwighta, holy-day of all life-kinds, be they diarkin, wyrtkin, or morkin.  It is a holy-hold for arring the untallied manifoldness of living kinds in the Edhli.  It is a time to arren them all and to mourn those kinds who have fallen to the Dilgoth and to yearn to keep those which yet abide from cwinkdom.  And they are frelsed in a sumbel that night, and the arred high-guest of the evening is the Allwight, the Misching of all the kinds in the Allwighta.

And then comes the end-day of the High Hallows-- Hallow-All, when the whole Edhli and the Wolken, the Great Guyst of all the Edhli, are arred, and it is edminded that the Allwight has become the Drygand, who fights to ernern the life-kinds from Dilgoth and to edstall the holy Heolorth of Edhli, forever.  And along with the Drygand are arred his Alf-thanes who with him seek to work the Menning upon the Earth, so that Edhlifrith may rixen the ways of Man.  And so then all earnestly betroth themselves to thane our holy Sake of Edhlifrith, So That All Life May Live.
