Land of Lions Lore : Time (Patreon)

Today I want to explain how time is kept in Chorsida! For my own sanity, I've stuck with a twelve month system. But here is how it works for the kits and birds of Chorsida!

========================

MONTHS & TIME____________

MONTHS:

• Months don’t have names, instead they are just referred to as 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.
  • So a date would be like: the fourth day of the third month (March 4th)
• Dates are written in DAY / MONTH / YEAR
• Year 1 refers to the year that the gods gave the world to mortals.
  • i.e. the first mortals were born.
• A month belongs to each god.
  • 1st (January) = The Divine (all gods)
  • 2nd (February) = Crocodile
  • 3rd (March) = Jackal
  • 4th (April) = Addax
  • 5th (May) = Crow
  • 6th (June) = Tiger
  • 7th (July) = Lion
  • 8th (August) = Buffalo
  • 9th (September) = Mouse
  • 10th (October) = Panther
  • 11th (November) = Falcon
  • 12th (December) = Firefly

TIME:

• Time is told in “Bells”
  • A BELL = 2 hours
• There are 12 Bells in a day
  • 1st bell = (Midnight to 2am)
  • 2nd bell = (2am to 4am)
  • 3rd bell = (4am to 6am)
  • 4th bell = (6am to 8am)
  • 5th bell = (8am to 10am)
  • 6th bell = (10am to Noon)
  • 7th bell = (Noon to 2pm)
  • 8th bell = (2pm to 4pm)
  • 9th bell = (4pm to 6pm)
  • 10th bell = (6pm to 8pm)
  • 11th bell = (8pm to 10pm)
  • 12th bell = (10 pm to Midnight)
• Time is not carefully kept. If you want to meet at a specific time it’s best to meet at the start of a BELL.
• “Half-past 4th bell” = 7am
