	\|customs = The customs of Seahaven are shaped by the sea, trade, and the necessity of trust in a place where fortunes turn quickly. It is customary for sailors to offer a pinch of salt or a splash of spirits to the waters of Mandrake Bay before departure, invoking Betshaba’s favor, while merchants seal agreements with a spoken oath, often witnessed or recorded in the name of Fides or Minos, before any coin changes hands. Greetings are typically brief and practical, but respect is shown through reliability rather than courtesy; a person’s reputation for keeping their word carries more weight than lineage or wealth. In taverns and along the docks, it is common to share news as freely as drink, though careful listeners know that truth and rumor are often indistinguishable. The dead are treated with solemn efficiency under the watch of Cthos’ clergy, and it is considered ill fortune to speak lightly of those lost at sea. Though remnants of pirate traditions persist, such as toasting fallen captains or marking personal symbols on gear, most customs now reflect a balance between old seafaring superstition and the structured expectations of a growing, trade-driven port.		\|customs = The customs of Seahaven are shaped by the sea, trade, and the necessity of trust in a place where fortunes turn quickly.

Observed in somber silence, the Lanterns of the Drowned is a night of remembrance dedicated to [[Cthos|Cthos the Doomsayer]] in [[Seahaven]] on the [[Marosh|Island of Marosh]]. At dusk, families and ship crews light small lanterns and set them adrift upon ''Mandrake Bay'', each one representing a soul lost to the sea. The waters glow with hundreds of flickering lights, drifting slowly across the harbor like a field of stars. Priests recite the names of the known dead while bells toll from the ''Sepulchral Lantern''. It is said that on this night, the boundary between the living and the drowned grows thin, and many claim to hear whispers carried on the tide. Even the most hardened sailors observe the ritual with quiet respect.<noinclude>[[Category:Marosh]][[Category:Cthos]]</noinclude>

Scheduled to coincide with the [[Spring Summit]], a holy day of [[Minos|Minos the Cockerel]], the Day of Binding Coin is [[Seahaven|Seahaven’s]] most important mercantile festival, honoring [[Minos|Minos the Cockerel]], god of commerce, and [[Fides|Fides the Oathbinder]], god of oaths. On this day, major contracts, trade agreements, and shipping charters are formally signed within the ''Keelmarket'' and the great halls of commerce. Priests of Minos oversee the weighing of coin and fairness of terms, while clergy of Fides witness oaths that bind parties under divine sanction. Markets overflow with goods, and smaller traders seek patrons or partnerships, hoping to secure their fortunes for the coming season. Though outwardly orderly, the day is also rife with intrigue, as deals are struck, alliances formed, and rivalries quietly sharpened.<noinclude>[[Category:Marosh]]</noinclude>

At the first safe sailing window after the harsh winter storms, Seahaven gathers along the docks for the ''Blessing of the First Tide'', a festival dedicated to [[Betshaba|Betshaba the Wavequeen]]. Ships are garlanded with ribbons, shells, and bits of polished driftwood, while priests walk the piers offering blessings and casting sanctified salt into the waters of ''Mandrake Bay''. Captains compete to launch first, believing the earliest departure ensures a year of favorable winds and profit. The festival is both reverent and celebratory, with music, bonfires along the shore, and communal feasting, marking the symbolic reopening of the sea lanes after winter’s grip.<noinclude>[[Category:Marosh]][[Category:Betshaba]]</noinclude>
