The Scroll of Years

Each of the cultures of Eredane records history differently.

Elves have the longest history, which is recorded by the scribes of the Witch Queen’s court. The scribe calendar begins with Aradil’s coronation. Dates are recorded as the number of the year and the age, and with the advent of each new age the sequence of numbers begins again. Events prior to the coronation are said to have occurred in the Time of Years, a vague and unreliable period of myths and legends.

Dwarves carve elaborate stories on the pillars of ancient chambers, marking the passage of years with elaborate symbology.

Gnomes have complex and endless oral histories passed in song.

Sarcosans track the months and years by the movement of the constellations. Each arc is named after the god-rider that is believed to hold the most power within that region of the stellar Sorshef. There are sections of the Book of the Sahi that tell of times in the ancient past when the god-kalifs of given arcs changed and were therefore given new names, but this has not happened since before the Sarcosans came to Eredane. These are known as...

Great Arcs of the Sorshef

Months of the Year: better known as "ARCS" to folk of Aryth.
