Nobody in the Romanian dragon reserve where Charlie works celebrates Chinese New Year, yet it is marked on the calendar regardless. The new moon before, all dragon keepers are reminded of the upcoming festival, and strict security measures are implemented.
The Chinese pilgrims begin to arrive at the full moon. They speak many dialects, but translation spells are cast at every perimeter and within the reserve, so no thief can slip past. The pilgrims camp around the reserve, and bustle and prepare as they watch the dragons.
At the new moon, they set out offerings, and the dragons bless them.
