Haemosan Calendar in The Somer Plate | World Anvil

Haemosan Calendar

The Haemosan Calendar is the currently most used calendar on the Somer Plate. It is named for the Scholar King Haemosu, who created the Vvakol Council.   The days are named after the first members of the Council, while the weeks are named after Haemosu's wives and the months are named after his children. The days are called rises, as in one sunrise, weeks are called sets, as in sets of rises, and the months are called cycles. Years are called tolls, after the sound of a giant bell that tolls six times during one night, which marks the end of the old toll and the start of the new toll. Nobody knows where the bell that rings is located, or why it rings, but everyone can hear it and follows it. Daytime is still referred to as daytime, while nighttime remains nighttime; Haemosu tried to rename these as well, together with the word hour and the name of the hours themselves, but it caught on with only a few, who do call daytime by brights and nighttime by darks. What they call the hours is generally unknown, but an hour is a section. Initially the time periods were named for the different chairman of the Vvakol Council, but after a rapid change about half a century in, they settled on simply calling the time period by the Time of Vvakol, meaning that an era is called a time.   The Haemosan Calendar is separated in 17 cycles (months), all three sets (weeks) long; one set is nine rises (days), making a cycle 27 rises and a toll (year) 459 rises. There are 27 sections in a rise.
