Winter's Crest

Winter's Crest constitutes the annual festival in Tal'Dorei which celebrates the ending of winter and marks a period of time where the veil between the celestial planes and the natural world is thinnest. In Race to the Ziggurat (Episode 34) Delilah Briarwood attempts to jumpstart a ritual meant to bring a would-be god by the name of Vecna across the barrier, failing to do so by beginning too early and missing the window of opportunity as a result. Winter's Crest also appears in the Winter's Crest Festival comic stripsundefined documenting Vox Machina's last adventure during the holiday.
