At the end of the Second Divine War, the High Keeper of Time of Nerunelümo, declared a new age along with a new calendar.

Ages of Time[]

The years are grouped into ages of varying lengths. The beginning of each age is marked by a great event in the history of Etan.

The first age, the Age of Creation, is the age when Etan and humans were created. The age ended when Arwaith arrived and attempted to destroy Etan in the First Divine War. Years in the Age of Creation are designated by the abbreviation AP (Aevum Partum), such as 1000 AP.

The second age, the Age of Gods, is the age when the gods created the other races and began feuding among themselves. The age ended when Arwaith returned and attempted to destroy Etan in the Second Divine War. Years in the Age of Gods are designated by the abbreviation AF (Aevum Filiolus), such as 1000 AF.

The third age, the Age of Mortality, is the age where the gods are separated from Etan with the Divine Barrier after the Second Divine War. Years in the Age of Mortality are designated by the abbreviation AL (Aevum Letalis), such as 1000 AL, though the designation is frequently omitted.

Months of the Year[]

The Etanian calendar is composed of twelve distinct months, each thirty days in length. The months are as follows:

  • Ianua
  • Diluculo
  • Ventus
  • Pluvia
  • Vigeo
  • Estus
  • Altusolis
  • Messor
  • Cado
  • Vesper
  • Crepusculum
  • Gelu

Days of the Week[]

A week in the Etanian calendar is measured in six days. Each of the days is named for one of the gods involved in the creation of Etan except for the last which is named for the spirit of Etan itself. In order, the days are:

Day Deity
Vicis Arwaith
Humus Ogden
Ignis Faris
Unda Glaile
Aer Ardel
Vita Etan

Measurement of Days[]

Now that Vultus had been placed in a regular path through the sky, the day has become a reasonably consistent measurement of time, a new one beginning whenever Vultus first shows above Etan.

  • Ruifiliolus - To remember fallen gods.
