Ah, that’s a very good question! Every year, we do have a formal gathering in the spring for the assembly of families and pairing of new couples. As perytons only breed once a year, it’s important that the right couple gets together and when it does, it’s a very important thing. It’s not unusual for several couples to be paired in ceremony during this time of year.

It always takes place on the first full moon of the spring and it is an entire night of festivities. There’s no name for the ceremony, we’ve never felt it necessary to call it anything as it’s very private for perytons alone. You would be extremely lucky to witness one and not be a peryton, but you can always tell when one has taken place because we always leave precious stones for the happy new couples and some of them are invariably dropped. So just look for any suspicously rustic campsites littered with random gemstones!
