The Aspectdom Calendar, also known as **Aerold's Calendar**, is the calendar used in most parts of the world. It went into effect in 79 AK in a decree written by [[Kas]] [[Aerold III]] to unify the measure of time across the borders of the [[Aspectdom of Than]]. The [[Calendar of the Hierarchy]] copies its structure but changed the named related to the Aspects and their faithful with their own symbolism. Aerold's Calendar takes into account the odd duration of the calendar year, and proposes a solution to it. In the calendar of the [[Aspects]], a year is divided in four seasons of five months each, for a total of 20 months. Each month counts 40 days, to the exception of the last month of each season which counts a 41st day, and to the exception of the last month of Ruin that only has 40 days. Each of the four seasons are named after an Aspect : - The first season is named Creation, and is the season of renewal, the period during which crops are seeded and some already start burgeoning. - The second season is named Excess, and is the harvest season, the bountiful time of the year. - The third season is named Prejudice, and is the season of violent rains and storms. - The fourth season is named Ruin, and is the season of recess, snows and of the long nights. In this calendar, the date is given as such : *16th of the 2nd Prejudice 1574* - that is the date of writing of this article. The first element of the date is the day of the month we are in. The second element of the date is the month's position in the season, in today's case, we are currently in the second month of Prejudice. The third element is the season itself. The conclusion of the date is the year. Some countries tend to give their date in a peculiar manner, starting with the month and then providing the day of the month. This format is frowned upon, and sometimes laughed at for its unique... concept. A month is most often divided in four weeks of 10 days each, named after the names of the most renowned [[Martyrs]] of each Aspect. This is the result of an edict made following the [[Scorched Conquest]] to posthumously reward these warriors. They are as follows : - Fadekar, named after [[Fadez Tuniclana]], Martyr of the [[Celestial Architect]] - Ustrun, named after [[Ustruit Grenaart]], Martyr of the [[Golden Herald]] - Ontrel, named after [[Ontre Luau]], Martyr of the [[Great Devourer]] - Ap, named "Nothing" as no Martyr of the [[Patient Hand]] was created. - Inpriss, named after [[Inpri Kasai]], Martyr of the [[Lonely Seeker]] - Blor, named after [[Bleu Puote]], Martyr of the [[Burner of Souls]] - Vregnat, named after [[Vregne Otmar]], Martyr of the [[King of Kings]] - Tiet, named after [[Tietme Virle]], Martyr of the [[Fallen Star]] - Glor, named after [[Gleu Puote]], Martyr of the [[Crimson Dawn]] - Rejoss, named after [[Rerjoge Ral Jarma]], Martyr of the [[Eternal Thought]]
