Alright, here's a bit of fleshing out on my part for the passage of time in Elyden. [hider=Calendar] The unique nature of the Long Summer has caused the measuring of time by seasons impossible. To this end, the Arcane Guild created an ingenuous magical device known as the 'Wheels.' The wheels are large magically powered clock like platforms, dominated by a single 'hand.' Numbers dot the side of the wheel, with the wheel shaded and coloured with three distinct sections all equal in size to its neighbour on the wheel. The numbers of these massive magic fuelled wheels count from one to eighty for each segment of the wheel. The 'One' character being the first number that it crosses for each new segment, otherwise known as months. Elyden thus tells time as follows. Also of note: A half hour is measured by a 'candlemark', while a full hour is often called the 'turn of a glass' associated with of course hour glasses. Turn of the wheel means an entire year has passed. Colouring onto Zieliah/ Seliel/ Achiel is a common saying that means that the month is soon coming to an end. Example: “I hope this midwinter ends this colouring.” 'Day of Dawning' is what the first day of a month is called. Elydenian counts their passage by 'turns of the wheel' rather than years. Example: “Meh boy's turning on four turns of the wheel this new moon.” Year: 698 Moons: Sielyr, Kasdiel, Jeha Zieliah- 80 days Seliel- 80 days Achiel- 80 days [/hider]
