In the same way that certain sections of the city were mortal battlegrounds, some parts of the calendar were always more warlike than others, and during the days between Christmas and the new year all elements seemed to conspire to subdue the soul.

People struggled until exhaustion, giving everything they had, and the days were packed with trials and mysteries (City Quotes)
