Contents

Introduction
There's a section on the moon phases that expands on a lot of the information found in Blood of the Moon. It includes an explanation for the various names of the full moons and includes a name for the extra special thirteenth full moon that can happen sometimes. There are in fact several names included for this full moon as different cultures have different names for it.

Talks more about the typical lifestyles in both rural and urban settings throughout the Inner Sea. It gives a lot of broad information on these topics, including things like common schedules, clothing styles between the two, and housing considerations. There are places where it gets into specifics, such as showing the layout of a specific rural home, but for the most part this information is broad as to set a baseline and tweaked as necessary between regions. e.g. You might have slightly different schedules in Irrisen compared to Taldor, but you have the broad strokes of info so you can deviate as necessary. There is a new ritual centered around major life events. Festivals & Holidays by AnAuthor (24)

The section opens with some general info on the types of celebrations people hold throughout the Inner Sea. It talks about common traditions like birthday and marriage celebrations. It proceeds to showcase some of the outfits that people wear for specific celebrations (Merrymead and Currentseve). Finally, it has a large visual spread of an Allbirth celebration, a tradition which originated in Katapesh, and talks about different aspects of the celebration, such as the decorations, clothing, and other traditions.
