The Calendar of Eleth

The Elethian Calendar

There are twelve months in the Elethian Calendar each consisting of twenty-eight days. Every three months there are festivals that consist of five days that occur before the last month of a particular season. This adds up to three hundred and sixty five days in a year. Days are twenty-four hours long and a week consists of seven days. Days are called by their number as they fall in the week (1st day, 2nd day, 3rd day, etc.).

For example our campaign begins on 4th day, Silvangate the 18th, 1845.

The moon (known as Lyrayth) that orbits Eleth waxes and wanes in 28 day cycles yet it seems to vanish from the sky during the Festival days. Lyrayth appears full on the first day of every month even after it seems to vanish during the Festivals. During the Festivals, Eleths larger and mysterious moon Wyrlos waxes and wanes quickly during the five day interim becoming full in the middle of the festival week. This strange moon appears with a different hue every season. Eleth travels once around the sun (known as Radiayth) in 365 days on a path that never varies.The months and festivals are listed as follows.
