I know this is probably a bit of a stupid question, but I'm actually mildly curious. And you know what they say: 'curiosity killed the cat'.

So, my birthday is tomorrow and I'm turning eighteen, finally. . . To be honest, birthdays aren't as big of a deal, which is why I want to know if there's anything special that people do for their eighteenth? Or just birthdays in general.

I'm interested in how other worlds celebrate, after all.

Thanks in advance!

In Fodlan, it is customary to offer flowers to birthday recipients. Often it is a great time to invite them to tea as well.

18 also seems about right for being recognized as the lord of your own estate.

[ Age is awful fuzzy when you're 1000+, not that Rhea will say anything about that. ]

Congratulations on your birthday.

Flowers, huh. That seems pretty simple, but I guess if you gave specific kinds of flowers, it'd matter more. Inviting people out to tea is surprising, though.

. . . Also thanks.

Welcome.

I'm pretty sure Fodlan is different from the 'Earth' I hear spoken of frequently, yet there are many things similar enough that you could still follow an idea.

[dereban]

Probably?

I've never heard of Fodlan in my entire life, so.

[immaculate_one]

Indeed. Fodlan is a land attached to a different world.

I often wonder though, if the technology here might have changed the way the land lived.

[dereban]

It's possible.
