Time and Date

Dates and times are the units with which the people of Ouern measure their years, months and days.
== Dates ==
Dates in Ouern are written in the format of Month title #, year. There is a longform way to write them, such as "The 22nd day of the Month of the Dragon, in the year 5667" which is the more formal way, whereas most people would pen such a date either as "Dragon 22, 5667" or even, in the shorter form, "Dr.22.67."
Months in Teshol are never abbreviated by numbers. The shorthand way to refer to each given month is as follows:
Month 	Abbreviation	Alternate Abbreviation
Cycle of Nature 	Na 	
Month of Building 	Bu 	
Month of Beauty 	Be 	Cor
Month of Strength 	St 	
Month of Knowledge 	Kn 	
Cycle of Dawn 	Da 	Pel
Month of Luck 	Lk 	
Month of Creation 	Cr 	
Month of the Moon 	Mn 	Shn
Month of the Dragon	Dr 	
Month of Sleep 	Sl 	
Cycle of Ravens 	Ra 	Rqn
Some months, such as Month of Beauty, have alternate names in reference to seasonal gods (reverent names). It is traditional to use the month's common name when referring to most dates, with the exception of birthdates or the dates of Temple Days. 
Such as, if your brother was born on the fourth day in the Cycle of Ravens, you would tell people his birthday is Raven Queen 4, 5650 (or Rqn.4.50), rather than Ravens 4, 5650 (Ra.4.50). Also, while a Saturday (or Restingday) in the Month of the Moon would be Moon 6, 5667 (Mn.6.67), the following temple day would be Sehanine 7, 5667 (Shn.7.67).
== Time ==
Ouern's people understand time similarly to how we do, with the exception that 12pm-1pm is sometime referred to as Beggar's Hour and 12am-1am is called Witching Hour.
