   Description:


   


   The time of harvest has always been an important time for some, it is the time at which one may reap the rewards of their hard work and live of the land they worked so hard to make fruitful. Then there is the night of the Harvest Moon, where one can see the full moon closest to the Autumn Equinox. It is said that this moon, in particular, is larger and much more colorful than all the moons throughout the year, thus bestowing farmers with extra light, allowing farmers more time to harvest their crops.

   Once upon a time, there was a particular poor farmer, who in the years before struggled to keep his farm due to the greed of the baron who owned the land taxing them heavily. The baron would take far more than his fair share of crops, leaving the farmer and his family near starving. After years of struggling, the farmer's wife fell ill due to being malnourished. The farmer begged the Baron to ease up the tax just so he could buy medicine, but the Lord's greed was too great and as a result, the farmer's wife passed. It was soon after her passing, that the farmer's youngest child also fell ill, desperate the farmer worked late into the night. Trying to do everything he could to earn enough to save her. It is believed that the gods took pity on the farmer, and during the night of the harvest moon, as he heaved his sickle into the earth it would begin to glow. Transforming into a magnificent weapon with intense magical power. With a single swing of the sickle, it would bless the land and create the most fruitful harvest the farmer had ever seen. A gift so that he and his family would never go hungry again, not only this but that night the baron would pass peacefully in his sleep and without an heir or any relatives to pass his belongings onto, the land was assigned to the farmer, meaning he never had to pay the Lord's unfair tax on it ever again.
