The Calendar

Reading the world's clock…

What’s coming

Every festival the world keeps, with the next real-world dates it falls on — put them in the calendar you actually use.

How the year works

One real month is one world season, so a whole world year passes every four months — long enough that a returning visitor genuinely missed something, quick enough that no festival is ever far away. Every festival comes three times a real year, once each world year. The world counts its years from its founding.

Night falls at 21:00 on the world’s clock and lifts at 05:00 — places written for the dark hours read differently in them, and some lands lean hard into it. Down on the southern coast the tide breathes in six-hour turns, out and back twice a day, and the flats and the wreck keep its schedule.
