Blythe's eldest sister Synofe demonstrating her flawless rendition of the Flickering Step - a traditional winter satyr dance.
Heralding the darkest days of winter to come, satyrs adorn their horns with a multitude of candles and become living altars to invite a warmth of spirit that will endure throughout the harsh season.
Performing the lively dance without extinguishing a single candle is the mark of one who is especially strong in spirit - one who manages to snuff every candle is marked for a winter of hardship, or even a grave illness.
