Revision as of 09:31, 24 February 2010
The Season of Wood: A season of planting and late-Spring-like weather, with Descending Wood beginning to warm up significantly. Some places that get warm early may have a first harvest by the end of this season.
The Season of Fire: The hottest season, a time of long light and growing, with Summer-like temperatures. Most places feature a first harvest by the end of this season, though some are already into a second harvest.
The Season of Earth: A time of warmth and ripening, without the stifling heat of the Season of Fire. Late Summer-like weather for most of the season, with early-Autumn-like weather and harvests happening at the end of Descending Earth.
The Season of Air: Starting off with colder early-Autumn-style weather featuring trees shedding leaves. Harvests of vines and trees tend to occur in Resplendent Air. Cools significantly by the end of Ascending Air and is very cold and winter-like through Descending Air.
The Season of Water: Very Winter-like in early Ascending Water, but beginning to warm up, with snows melting and an early Spring coming in Resplendent Water. Early planting begins then.
Calibration: The five days "outside of time" in Creation, when the veils between the world of spirits and the world of mortals drops, and the cracks between Creation and the Underworld, Malfeas and the Wyld widen enough to allow things to slip through. An uncanny time, one best spent in the company of others. Many settlements bar their gates and don't allow travelers in during the five days of Calibration. Essence regeneration increases by 50% during Calibration.

Descending Water
2nd Day of Descending Water
- The night of the moot had come and the lunars of the West answered the call and gathered on the nameless island that all sane men & women knew to avoid. They arrived one at a time to the isle where two were already waiting next to a bonfire. Most of them came wearing the shapes of the sea and assumed their human feet once they reached land. A few came from the forest and some from the sky. One came by boat with an entourage.
- Introductions were made all around as well as each caste and spirit shape revealed to their peers in turn. Pathfinder was asked to send his demons away so that the eyes of Malfeas would not also be in attendance. He did so without argument. His personal assistant, Turtle, one of his otter beatmen children was allowed to remain. The four lunars newest to their fellows in the West, Obsidian Gaze, Dead Eye, Pathfinder and Cozened X, the youngest of them all, were introduced and questioned as well. There was some controversy over the Lintha motif moonsilver tattoos that Obsidian Gaze had been marked with by <SQUID>, who harbored an obvious dislike for the new lunar. And TURTLE was not very pleased when his attempts to question Pathfinder of his past were met with a defiant lack of information regarding his time before he arrived in the West.
- After introductions people were left to wander & mingle as they wished and quickly broke into various smaller groups to discuss various matters or to recruit the newcomers to various societies and factions. <????> spoke with Dead Eye and marveled at the workmanship of his weapons. Cozened X made rounds to each of the group and introduced himself to each of the other newcomer lunars. <WALRUS> after hearing Obsidian Gaze claim to have slain a massive wyld mutant of the sea demanded to see it's head that he'd kept as a trophy.
