Time's Arrow
Synchronicity & Cycles
Luckily for us, the Eothan calendar follows ours almost perfectly, with one exception: Due to the Eldar's legacy, there world spins three times as fast, giving us three sunrises and sunsets per day.
These are known as the Cycles - and at the start of each Cycle, town bells toll the arrival of the new Cycle. The first Cycle starts at midnight, the second at 8:00, and the third at 16:00. All of Eotha uses a 24 hour clock, which matches with our UTC timezone.
