Valk's day of summoning was the 4th of the Rain Moon every year. This day was called April Fool's Day or Beggar King's Day.

Legend had it that in the Golden Calendar, Valk had once switched the identities of a beggar with a king on his day of summoning. The beggar wearing the crown issued many extremely ridiculous orders on that day, causing great chaos in the capital. But when the day passed at midnight, the beggar returned to his original tattered state with rotten sores all over his body. The golden crown on his head also turned into a crooked crown woven from cardboard and bamboo.

Later on, to prevent such a thing from happening again, on the 4th of the Rain Moon every year, the king would take the initiative to change into tattered beggar clothes. He instructed himself in advance that all the orders he gave today were a joke and allowed all the beggars in the country to party on the streets.
