Why does the Mythic Midwinter Market close on a Tuesday?
It is known.
The Mythic Midwinter Market doesn’t end like normal markets.
It doesn’t quietly pack away on a Sunday evening.
Oh no.
It closes on the Second Tuesday of Twinkling — a calendrical anomaly known only to Guild Timekeepers and one particularly mouthy snowman called Derek.
🕰️✨ Why Tuesday the 9th?
Because Keith set the Market Clock using a snowglobe, a cinnamon stick, and what he thought was the Prime Meridian.
(It was, in fact, a biscuit tin lid.)
The resulting temporal drift now means:
- All Guild clocks tick sideways on alternate weekends
- Tuesdays now last 36 hours in Sparkle Standard Time
- And markets can only legally close after the last snowflake is counted… which statistically falls on a Tuesday, obviously
So yes. We close on Tuesday.
Because chaos.
Because Keith.
Because the snowmen insisted.
So Join us for something truly magical from 29th November – 9th December 2025
