Physical Setting

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

Sun  trajectory in the sky along the 6 days of the week

  • There is no moon but the starlight is enough to see like with a full moon.
  • There is no North/South/East/Ouest, the Mountain being visible from mostly anywhere, the directions are: to the Mountain, back from the Mountain, left of the Mountain (while looking at it) and right of the Mountain.
  • 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.
    1. Lifeday
    2. Landday
    3. Seaday
    4. Mount(ain)day
    5. Skyday
    6. Sunday
  • A year is divided in 12 months of 5 weeks, regrouped in 4 seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Each month bore the name of a primordial Æon + month:
    1. (Spring) Naturemonth
    2. (Spring) Growthmonth
    3. (Spring) Beautymonth
    4. (Summer) Justicemonth
    5. (Summer) Lightmonth
    6. (Summer) Starmonth
    7. (Autumn) Journeymonth
    8. (Autumn) Craftmonth
    9. (Autumn) Exchangemonth
    10. (Winter) Familymonth
    11. (Winter) Fatemonth
    12. (Winter) Truthmonth
  • A year is 360 days, or 60 weeks, or 12 months, or 4 seasons, and corresponds to the passing of the four seasons. The year start at the morrow of the coldest day, day four of the 8th week of winter.
