The Fulcrum Holiday had come, and Cliffshadow celebrated it too.  Devotees of Rohe could walk the path atop the cliff; celebrants would too, and fly kites as high as they could, with notes attached.  Below them, Club Cliffglider showed off their hanggliding prowess.  In Pegasus Square, some of the more junior monks from Orderly Stones monastery did a display of balance and juggling.  Cliffshadow had no river, but contests were being held in The Park for anyone who wished to attempt slackline walking or show off their juggling.  The slackline was close to the ground so competitors did not get hurt.  Nearby, vendors had set up booths to conveniently peddle alcohol and perhaps other inebriants for celebrants who merely wished to watch these competitions.

Taverns and bars across the city were doing brisk business, including to one Ondar, spending his first holiday in Cliffshadow since arriving on Duquesne.  Ondar took the opportunity to go on a serious tavern crawl, sampling one of every drink at each establishment Ondar visited.

Tai found the revelry a bit much; as he wished he was enjoying it in the company of his family, especially his son.  He retreated to the Temple of Serenity and meditated for a while, then walked up the Path of Rohe to send off a note of his own:  I'm on Duquesne, in Cliffshadow.

Ana, Hikawera, Osric, and Cathance headed to the competitions at The Park.  Ana bought a bottle of nice wine, then got a seat with a good view and watched the slacklining, which wasn't nearly as daring as that in Stormhaven.  Hikawera alternated between vendor drinks and juggling, which did not go well; he finally gave up and, acquiring his own bottle of wine, joined Ana.  They turned it into a drinking game; once, Hikawera levitated a random person on the line.

Osric decided to use his wild shape on the slack line.  Once he was a goat, and fell; another time, a giant weasel, and succeeded.  He drew some laughs for that.  Cathance just walked the slack line.  She tried it again, then headed to the Path of Rohe to fly the kite and watch the hanggliding.  She drew an unrecognizable holy symbol on her note, wondering which god it represented.
