The Calendar System is the standard measurement of time used by the inhabitants of Innworld.
Overview edit edit source
An Innworld year has sixteen months, with four weeks each month and eight days a week.[1][2] Despite the longer years, the inhabitants still conform to Earth's sense of time, and an eight year old in Innworld will resembles an eight year old, rather than looking older.[3]
The days are called (in order of revelation):
- Laudas[4] - The 7th day of the week. Name used by Hrome.
- Beithday[5] - The 1st day of the week[6]. Name used by Chaldion.
- Tirenv[7] - Name used by Imani.
- Nendas[8] - The 4th day of the week. Name used by Teriarch.

Calendar Eras edit edit source
Innworld eras are marked by events. For instance, the current era is A.F., which stands for "After Flos," signifying the defeat of the King of Destruction Flos Reimarch. Each era has its own dating system, making it difficult to track events chronologically,[21] such as the era when magic was dead, D.O.M., (Death of Magic), where each year is marked as negative, as a [Historian] decided to make the year magic returned "Year 0."[22]
Date and Time Order edit edit source
Note: The following information was compiled across multiple chapters and is subject to change or retconned with new chapters
Taking in account a month seems to have exactly four weeks and the latest date confirmed[9]: 10/14/23 was a Saelsmorn. It means each month starts on the first day of the week(no name given yet). Calculating what day of the week is Laudas (name probably only used in Roshal), it would be the 7th day of the week.
The days in their supposed order:
- Beithday[6]/Laudas[23] - The 1st day of the week.
- Saelsmorn[9] - The 2nd day of the week.
- Beithday[24] -
The 3rd day of the week. - Nendas[8]/Liriean[13] - The 4th day of the week.
- Tirenv[24] - The 5th day of the week.
- Lundas[11]/Helday[10] - The 6th day of the week.
- Laudas[4]/Gnorna[12] - The 7th day of the week.
- Zenze[12] - The 8th day of the week.
The months in their supposed order:
- Caelhic[20] - The 1st month of the Year, 1st month of Spring.
- Rerrk[15] - The 4th month of the Year, last month of Spring
- Solla[4] - The 7th or 8th month of the Year, 3rd or 4th month of Summer
