Aza'ra's Timekeeping

Aza’ra’s unique time system is based on its three celestial moons, each influencing the rhythm of life across the world. The day is divided into three distinct arcs, each corresponding to a moon, with a total of 21 hours.

🌙 The Sacred Moons of Aza’ra

Aza’ra’s skies hold no sun—light comes instead from three sacred moons, collectively called The Triumvirate of Light. Each governs a third of the 21-hour Aza’raan day, shaping daily life, ceremony, and language.

Duvaen (Ae | Hours 1–7)

Pronounced: Doo-vay-en

Crimson-red like Mars, casting warm, diffuse light. Duvaen symbolizes renewal, ambition, and vitality—sparking trade, exploration, and new beginnings. Traders, builders, and wanderers set forth under Duvaen’s glow, and rites of birth and binding unfold in its dawn.

W’iosamn (W’i | Hours 8–14)

Pronounced: wuh-ai-ee-shahmn

A vast, pale silver moon—larger and brighter than Earth’s. W’iosamn embodies clarity, balance, and societal order. Midday councils, trials, and proclamations occur beneath its serene light, fostering governance, learning, and community.

Arvalla (La | Hours 15–21)

Pronounced: Ar͡r-vah-lah

A colossal blue-silver moon with tilted rings and perpetual storms. Arvalla rules mystery, transformation, and divine communion. Night in Aza’ra is not for rest, but for dreaming, arcane rituals, and secret rites beneath Arvalla’s watchful eye.

🕰️ Time as Living Pulse

Time in Aza’ra is not merely counted—it is felt. The Veil hums with resonant pulses, each wave marking hours, minutes, and seconds like the heartbeat of an unseen god. An Aza’raan Hour hums every 105 Earth minutes, a Minute every 104 Earth seconds—guiding prayers, rituals, and navigation. Temples and scholars attune to the Veil’s pulse, bending its hum into magitech and psionic tools that keep the realm afloat.

Daily life flows in triadic rhythm—Ae-W’i-La—echoed in architecture, calendars, and even language. Weekdays bear the names of lost gods and cosmic ideals, from Raethan (Judgment) to Vulkiren (Rebellion). The Triumvirate of Light does not merely pass overhead—they guide hands, hearts, and hopes.
