Ja'

I dropped a couple hats in epic armory, here's hoping we can make more guesses before I have to leave

I don't *think* any of these answers are in a grey area of fiction or non-fiction, but I'm sure someone somewhere could make an argument.

Ohyeah, I knew that the names of the characters weren't direct references! I just meant if the answers themselves could come from a historical sort of 'non-fiction' source or if we should also consider stories that aren't necessarily absolute, but might have lead to very real practices. It's sort of tricky! I wasn't even considering certain sources of information 'cause my thought processes weren't establishing them as proper 'non-fiction'. I just want to know if I was maybe shorting myself on where to look. 8P

y'know this riddle could actually be something simple like christmas too

I'd consider all angles as viable just until we get the seal.

Well, let's put it like this: every guess is a good guess.

Add it to the list.

I think Chrismas might actually be it

If you want to sleuth through sources that may be a hit or miss, you're most welcome to suggest it and we'll happily try it!

Say please?

Add it to the list SuperPlease.

Wellll... Let's put it this way: probably you could argue that ANY holiday, festival or special event that people celebrate has at least some fiction in the rationales behind it, whether it's a religious feast or something more secular like Thanksgiving or a birthday. Like, why don't we count gestation as part of your life span? Is the actual count just arbitrary? Maybe. We could have these semantics debates until we fell over. But you can't argue that saying people celebrate their own birthdays is fictional, or that people have Thanksgiving dinners. People for sure do that.

Add Get-together too please.

Caristia or Charistia was an ancient celebration where the whole point was reconciling with your family

TLDR: I'm really not trying to be tricksy with these by picking them out of grey areas.

Add those too to the list please.

Done!

@chat Also i wasn't trying to stir things up. I'm just grasping at all and every holiday I can find that deals with reunion.
