This section present the different element of physical lore (things that would not exist without life) of the world.

- A day corresponds to 24h: 12 hours during which the sun rises and sets plus 12 hours for the night. The lengths of the daylight and nighttime do not change.
- A week is 6 days (see link below for a interesting implementation of 6-day week on Earth1)). Each day the sunset and sunrise positions in the horizon are shift by 1/6 turn, so in one week they retrieve their initial position. The sunrise and sunset are always at the same time of the day.
