The Dragon’s Maw region uses a twelve month long calendar with each month containing three separate ten day weeks often referred too as a tenday. The exact number of minutes is a bit longer than three hundred and sixty days but the left over minutes are added together and one additional day is added to the calendar every five years. This day falls between the last day and the first day of year after every fifth year (so on the 5th, 10th, 15th, etc.).

Citizens of the Dragon’s Maw region are aware of the calendar but most people don’t place much emphasis on the exact day instead focusing on the time of the year or the season. Several holy days and holidays break up each year and separate kingdoms, cities, towns, and villages celebrate separate events. Only the most rare national holidays are celebrated on a country or kingdom wide level.

The months are named after the children though many people associate separate names with each month.

1st month: Jarrek, the dark winter
2nd month: Dannis, the cold
3rd month: Hestar, the thaw
4th month: Sendaria, the planting
5th month: Velena, the winds
6th month: Chronos, the high month
7th month: Artos, the burning
8th month: Hatak, the dry
9th month: Thelia, the harvest
10th month: Wartak, the storms
11th month: Zarkius, the dying
12th month, Alecia, the night

The 1st night of every month the moon is full and wanes until the 15th where it becomes a new moon, afterwards the moon waxes until the end of the month where the process repeats itself.

In other regions of the world, particularly Al’Ridar and Northland the people use a similarly numbered calendar but the months are named differently.
