The Fontinalia Festival is a festival in Fontaine to commemorate the Lochknights' search for the Oceanids and recovery of Egeria.
During the event Roses and Muskets, the Fontinalia Film Festival was a new event added by the Fontaine Film Association.
Overview[]
According to legend, the Lochknights went on a quest to search for the Oceanids and eventually welcomed the Hydro Archon, Egeria, to Fontaine. The Fontinalia Festival was established to commemorate the legendary Lochknights by putting on special costumes, raising golden cups, and going door-to-door asking for pure water.[1]
In recent years, Furina changed the festivities to become akin to a carnival, replacing the segments about "pure water" with candy. Since then, the festival has become quite popular among kids, who say "Trial or treat!" at each house they visit.[1]
Fontinalia Film Festival[]
The Fontinalia Film Festival was organized by the Fontaine Film Association to introduce the art of cinematography to the public. People may submit films to be evaluated, and the entry with the highest score will be given the "Furina Award" by the Fontaine Film Association. While award was named while Furina was still ruling Fontaine, nobody moved to change the name after she abdicated following the events of Archon Quest Chapter IV: Act V - Masquerade of the Guilty.[1]
The Two Musketeers by the Musketeer Pictures company, produced by Xavier and directed by Furina herself, won the first Furina Award.[2]
