Midpeace
World Roshar
Universe Cosmere

Midpeace is a period that marks the middle of the Rosharan year.[1]

The Rosharan year is 500 days long[2] and ends with a four week period of rain known as the Weeping.[3] Midpeace occurs at the midpoint between Weepings.[1] There are no highstorms or rain during Midpeace.[1] Although the exact duration is not mentioned, Midpeace is the longest sustained period on Roshar without rain; all but the largest rivers dry up without being fed by storms.[4]

Residents of Roshar use the fair weather of Midpeace to celebrate and travel.[5] Alethkar, Jah Keved, and possibly other nations hold outdoor festivals known as Middlefest Fairs.[1] Yokska mentions traveling to Liafor during Midpeace to see the latest fashion trends.[6]
