The Calendar of the Awakened World
Time in the Awakened World is measured by the rhythms of the Last Gods, and echos the arc of life. From birth and growth, to struggle and sacrifice, to loss and reflection, the calendar is not just a reckoning of days, but a mirror of becoming.
Each year is divided into four Seasons of one hundred days.
Each Season is divided into four moons of twenty five.
Each season and are used in rites, formal records, and the histories of the Nine Nations. But within the Durajan, something new was born.
Among the banished and the broken, Dothemides placed journals in their hands and urged them to write, not just for posterity, but for presence. For remembrance. For proof that they lived.
In doing so, he gave the calendar new meaning, not just a divine rhythm, but a map of the soul. Each season became a stage of becoming, each phase a breath in the long story of what it means to survive and remain.
