The ''' | The '''Lethurêan Calendar''' is the standardized temporal system used throughout the universe of [[Lethurêa]]. It accounts for planetary variations in time, such as differing orbital periods and rotational speeds, while providing a consistent measure of time based on the Elder Sherok's homeworld. | ||
A | A Lethurêan year consists of 1,000 Lethurêan days, which aligns with the orbit of certain planets like [[Ûblâ]], whose year matches the universal standard. For travelers like [[Merik Teslek]], time often becomes inconsistent due to the nature of interplanetary travel, resulting in experiences where seasons, hours, or even day-night cycles shift drastically. To mitigate this, standardized time is tracked using devices like the [[Data Orb|data orb]], ensuring continuity across locations. | ||
