The Book of the Maccafrosts
Deutero-Rime · read for edification, not for doctrine
The Book of the Maccafrosts recounts the heroic resistance of the faithful Rimefolk against the warm Seleukid persecution in the centuries before Connor Frost, when a warm tyrant defiled the Frosthall of Wintermere by raising an altar to the Sun within it and forbidding the The Frostmark on pain of death. It tells of the priest Mattafrost and his sons, who would not burn the warm incense, and of the rededication of the Frosthall — the kindling of the cold-lamp that could not be quenched, kept ever since as the Feast of Rededication.
Status and Use
Accepted as deutero-rime (edifying but non-canonical) by the The Hoarfrost Communion and The Glacial Orthodoxy; held outside the canon by the Reformed. It grounds the doctrine of faithful resistance and the honoring of those who suffer for the Cold, and is read in the season of the Rededication-feast.
