=Real-time Seasons=
Besides the arcs and questlines, the campaign is divided into several real-time seasons, i.e., periods between hiatuses in which the campaign was played regularly by the players.
==Season #1==
The first season of the campaign lasted from 14. 11. 2020. to 26. 6. 2021.
It started with the session "Meeting at Shade Tree Tavern" (1x1) and ended with "Dinner with a God" (1x26).
Although the current arc of the season wasn't completed by the end of the season, summer break and other obligations by the players forced a pause on the campaign until late fall of the same year.
==Season #2==
The second season of the campaign lasted from 16. 10. 2021. to 19. 8. 2022.
It started with the session "War Tactics" (1x27) and ended with "Parted Ways" (1x70).
Season #2 ended simultaneously with the fourth arc of the campaign. The 70th and last session was the first session in the entire campaign not played at the Dungeon Master's house. It wasn't planed as a session but more as a gettogether in which the players would reflect on the previous session and say farewell to players who, for work reasons, were moving to another country. However, even without their character sheets at hand, the gettogether turned into a session of exploring the fates of the characters in the five years after the Calamity of Memories and before their eventual reunion. It was afterwards decided that this gettogether would count as a session of its own.
==Season #3 (Current)==
The third season started on the 21. 10. 2022. with the session "Starting Point Leilon" (1x71).
