The Darkwind Calendar

 

 

Darkwind’s calendar is based on a 300 day year.

 

Each Day is approximately 20 hours, and 1-week is a ten-day long.

 

There are 3 ten-days in a month (or 30 days), and 10 months in a year.

 

There are three moons that orbit high above Geshtei, all of which are distinctly differentiable because of their colors.  The largest is Dailos, also known as the Magenta moon.  The next largest is Markas, the Red moon, and the smallest,Tekal, is called the Green moon.
