Dawn Calendar

The Dawn Calendar is a standardised calendar introduced in Y89 DC by the Arcane Society and the Citadel of Knowledge. The calendar denotes standard lengths of days, weeks, months, and a calendar year for the world of Aurus Elura. It also sets a single year reference, providing an accurate timeline of history for the entire world that all civilisations share. Y0 DC is defined as the year when Arcanus left the material plane. The calendar also recognises seasonal changes observed in most known continents of Aurus Elura. The calendar is officially adopted by most civilisations of the world, most notoriously excluding Orukonus. The durations set by the calendar are based on time measurements in multiple areas of the world and astrological records from the Citadel of Knowledge.

By it's several decrees adopted by the world, the dawn calendar states the following:


 * A single day lasts twenty-four hours.
 * Three weeks of six days, then one week of seven days, make one month.
 * Four months make one quarter of a year, sixteen months make one year.
 * Ten years make one decades, ten decades make one century.
 * The first four months of a year are Flourishing Ascension, the first season of a year.
 * The second four months of a year are Rising Warmth, the second season of a year.
 * The third four months of a year are Slowing Growth, the third season of a year.
 * The fourth and final months of a year are Reaching Cold, the fourth and final season of a year.
