The Constellation Cycle

Because there is no moon in the shattered isles, those who reside in the isles use the Vargus Calendar, one that is based on which constellations sits above Primus, the Stalwart Star that remains motionless throughout the year. A constellation cycle takes place over 338 days, going through four seasons that each hold three months each. Every month bears the name of a constellation, and every season holds a Herald, a Lord, and a Lady. The Heralds represent change and shifts in the status quo (Chaos), the Lords represent stability and dependability (Lawful), while the Ladies represent foresight and preparation (Neutral).
