The Elyrian Calendar!
For those of you that want the details without the read, just scroll down and check out the pic.
For awhile now the complete Elyrian Calendar has been somewhat of speculation, or simply incomplete. I am here to give you the entire calendar of 1 full Elyrian Year.
Let me emphasize this.
The Entire Calendar!
I will spell out everything. Number of days, and their names. Number of weeks both in a month and a year. Number of Months in a year, and their names. I will provide you all of it spelling it out in it's entirety for you with utmost clearance and accuracy. Sources will be at the end of the post to keep it clean-ish.
Without further Ado.
Year
- An Elyrian year is equal to 1 real life week.
- Elyrian years have events that unfold in a 52 year cycle.
Month
There are 6 Elyrian Months in one Elyrian year. In order they are:
- Angelan
- Deami
- Ocei
- Terrara
- Monarn
- Lunai
Week
- There are 2 Weeks per Elyrian Month.
- There are 12 Weeks per Elyrian Year.
Day
- There are 5 days in an Elyrian Week.
- There are 10 days in an Elyrian Month.
- There are 60 days in an Elyrian Year.
- An Elyrian day is approximately 2.8 hours.
The Days of the week are named as follows.
- Auror
- Neera
- Merida
- Qinder,
- E'er
Format
There are a couple different examples of how to write out the date, but it is still Day/Month/Year format.
Day of the week, day of the month, month, year.
Example: Qinder, 09 Daemi 707
Day of the month, month (by number), year.
Example: 4/1/707
What does this mean?
Frankly, this means I can create an example of an Elyrian Calendar, which I did, in 2 formats no less!
As you can see, these are both based on 1 Elyrian year. It gives you what days there are, and it gives you the day's correlation to the day and hour of the week! Don't be surprised though due to seasonal ebbs and such if there are slight variances on daylight and 6 am game time doesn't always mean sunrise. Much like real life.
Please note, as this has come up a few times now, the one thing we cannot pin down is the start time and date for the Elyrian year. It may be that the first of Angelan starts at midnight on Monday, or even noon PST on Thursday. At this time it is the one thing I haven't seen nailed down.
Steal my calendar!
That is right take them, add to them, do as you will. Take the dates and info and make your own. This has been my effort to clarify and solidify something that I haven't seen solidly pinned down yet.
Please just don't circulate false versions of this! Let us finally clear the air on the Elyrian Calendar as it stands today.
And now, a word from our Sources!
