This card looks like part of the sentinel and the text reads...

Diwali
Kwanzaa
Obon

Would that be:

''The Restitution of the Cube''?

Well, that's partly why I went with my first answer:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
''Restitution of the Cube'' - celebrated at the Winter Solstice, with three days of prayer, meditation. It is traditional to light cube-shaped candles at this time.

But now I think it could also be:
''The lighting of the way'': at autumn equinox, the festival of re-affirming our dedication to the Cube and of witnessing Gyvann's message to the world.

Can anyone else enLIGHTen us? Razz

Being new to this I have two questions.

1) Where do you find out about the perplex city holidays?

2) How do you navigate the wiki, the search function doesn't give me any results for holiday/candle/celebration that relate to perplex city holidays.

Or is this one of those you have to have been playing from the beginning thing and would have read it in a sentinel release at some point?

In the lower corner:

The second line is upside-down. What's up?

Sorry, Teebor.

There is no good central place to search for info about PC. There are a lot of official sites (blogs etc). However, the http://perplexcitywiki.com is not a bad place to start. If you type "festival" in the search box you get several relevant references. On my mac at least, you have to copy the refs rather than click them.

aha Thank you very much Smile

I found the information in the wiki pretty easily once you posted that.
I think when I searched on wiki before it was with holiday and not holidayS
so it didn't give me any info.

I have been concentrating on the cards more than the blogs and story, but I am changing that soon now I have a few solves behind me.

Thanks again dude

Also...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The Perplex City Sentinel has an article about The Lighting of the Way. Found it using the keywords 'Perplex City Sentinel' and 'light' in Google.
