Amalthean Calendar

Time in Amalthea is grouped into Ages, Years, Months and Days. While the Calendar wasn't introduced until the Tuatha found a need to measure the passing of time in The Common Light, events that happened previous to the second age are dated in reverse; a higher numbered year in the first age would indicate it happened farther from the dawn of light.

Each year contains 400 days, which measured the span of time it took for The Lightbringers to pursue Smoladh across the entirety of the world. These 400 days are grouped together in a number of ways. Each quarter of the year is ruled by a different God, which results in each grouping of 100 days having different climates; these are the seasons Amalthea, generally split between Mháthair, the rainy season, Iníon, the hot season, Athair, the season of change and Bhuachaill, the cold season.

Furthermore, each season has 4 months, with a total of 16 across the whole year. Each month is twenty-five days long. Professions that require more precision, such as astrologers and alchemists, will sometimes group these into five weeks, each five days long, but generally there is little use to keep this level of minutiae on the continent.
