Others have been mentioning dates of birth and so I was wondering: what do your people do in order to celebrate the day someone is born, or named, or comes into their own?

Also, how do your people celebrate the lives that have ended?

[He takes a moment to consider the traditions that could translate well onto the ship.]

The spirits are supposed to visit during the Bon festival--that's the important part. We hang up lanterns to guide them while they're in the physical world. On the last night, we send them back with a fire ceremony or with floating paper lanterns--one lantern for each spirit.

Hmm. [ He wishes, now, that he knew more about Jedhan customs regarding the dead. Maybe Chirrut would arrive and he'd be able to ask.

Eventually. ]

I like that.

[yokunaru]

Oh. [He sounds relieved.]

If that's something you want to do...I don't know if we'll be able to find floating lanterns on board, but we can make do with what we have.
