The Festival of Lights was always something of an uncomfortable affair for Rhiannon, who had yet to lose anyone near and dear to her heart and therefore always felt a little out of place. Still, she always felt compelled to attend, seeing as so many of her friends had lost people they cared about, and it seemed like the least she could do to show up and at least offer her sympathy.
This year, she carried a lantern for the fallen soldiers of Halo, many of whom had perished before she'd joined their ranks. She spotted Deimos in the crowd - gods knew he was hard to miss - and made her way over. As always, she was torn between a salute and a wave as a greeting, and so she opted for neither, merely nodding in greeting. "Deimos," she said, offering a smile to those with him - Evie and Amhran. "Pardon me. I just wanted to say hello."

Rhi brings a lantern for any fallen Halovians.
