Samhain Celebration - Main Campfire of the Cabins, Sunday, Dusk

Having handwavilyomg put up some very, very poorly spelled signs with Tara for people to know about this, Merlin was more than happy to get things started.

If only because there had been some rather insistent candy yesterday and he'd tried some out of pity and now believed Halloween may be evil. So, there was that.

But he had everything all set up and hopefully there wouldn't be an attack of some also horrible sweet from his time. But this was Fandom, so that was an actual concern. Damn Fandom.

[[Have at!]]

Kennedy shrugged. "Well, what's the deal with the two fires? And is it supposed to, you know, do anything, the whole festival thing?" With a grin, she added, "Whatever you want to tell, really."

"The two fires are so you can walk between them and come out purified for the new year," Tara said. "It's the end of the harvest. People used to believe the barrier between life and the afterlife was really thin right about now."

"That sounds vaguely familiar," Kennedy mused; her Watcher must have said something along those lines once, followed by something about how it tended to be the slowest time of the year for the Slayer. Which was probably why Kennedy hadn't paid that much attention to it. "Do people still believe it?"
