A rarity among the Clan Homeworlds, the lower castes of Paxon celebrate a holiday based on a natural phenomenon. The [[Star Festival]] occurs on Paxon every 6,407 days. The festival is a week long, and is held in anticipation of the flaring of the [[Theta Pyxidis]] binary star system lighting the night sky. The flaring of Theta Pyxidis is observable from some of Paxon's neighboring systems, but it is unclear if they celebrate the event.<ref name=WoK50>''The Clans: Warriors of Kerensky'', p. 50</ref>

====Wars of Reaving====
 
In March [[3070]], [[Clan Steel Viper]] began targeting [[Clan Snow Raven]] possessions across the [[Clan Homeworlds]], ostensibly to remove the "taint of the [[Inner Sphere]]". Eager to find a distraction in order to evacuate the Clan Homeworlds in safety, [[Loremaster]] [[Klaus Harper]], working in concert with [[Clan Watch|Clan Snow Raven's Watch]] and [[Outworlds Alliance Intelligence]], discovered in May 3070 that [[Clan Diamond Shark]] had begun secretly trading prohibited Clan technology – [[Undine Battle Armor]] – with the [[Federated Suns]]. [[Khan]] [[Lynn McKenna]] promptly presented the Watch's findings to the Clan [[Grand Council]], a finding corroborated by [[Clan Jade Falcon]]. However, all votes on an appropriate response beyond simply censuring the Diamond Sharks failed. Clan Snow Raven's machinations had worked, as Clans Steel Viper, [[Clan Star Adder|Star Adder]], and [[Clan Cloud Cobra|Cloud Cobra]] shifted their attention to the Sharks.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', pp. 48–51</ref>

With the Trial quickly becoming more complicated, the previously uninvolved Diamond Sharks withdrew to Thermopolis and armed all former Warriors among the city's lower castes, redeploying the stationed DropShips from evacuation to engaging the Blood Spirits. As the fighting between the Sharks and Spirits in the city intensified, the Coyotes continued their repair and rearmament efforts, until a [[Binary]] from the Sharks' Eighty-third slipped through the Coyote cordon and decimated the Forty-ninth's [[Command Star]]. In retaliation, the remnants of the Forty-ninth also entered Thermopolis. Facing forces from two Clans, Star Colonel [[Megan Clarke]] pulled the Eighty-third Combined Strike into the best defensive positions possible.<ref name=door/>

After two days, the Blood Spirit forces on Paxon were reduced to a Binary of ProtoMechs, giving the exhausted Diamond Sharks the opportunity to attempt an evacuation. The Sharks' lower caste members embarked as quickly as possible, then lifted off. Seeing two Stars of DropShips beginning to depart, Scarlet Guards Star Colonel [[Stok Campbell]] ordered Blood Spirit aerospace forces to intercept, believing the DropShips were laden with ''isorla''. Two vessels, the CDS ''[[Orson (Individual DropShip)|Orson]]'' and ''[[Uther]]'', were destroyed, killing 1,100 more civilians.<ref name=door/>

As the last of the Diamond Shark DropShips lifted off, Levien's Forty-ninth Battle finished off the last of Clan Diamond Shark's Eighty-third Combined Strike Cluster, then turned their guns on the retreating Scarlet Guard. The Scarlet Guard was reduced to a single Star of ProtoMechs. Levien then quietly ordered Clan Coyote's own evacuation, departing with a Star-and-a-half of OmniMechs and Elementals, leaving Paxon defenseless. Clan Coyote would abandon several more of its colonies in the coming years.<ref name=door/><ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 148: "Feeding Frenzy"</ref>
