Immortal Legacy
| “ |
Just on the border of your waking mind, there lies another time where darkness and light are one. And as you tread the halls of sanity, you feel so glad to be unable to go beyond. I have a message from another time. |

It takes 365 days for the world of Halestia to revolve around its nearest star Asv. The calendar consists of 10 months, each containing 35 days. Every month contains 5 weeks of 7 days. Seasons last for two months, after which, a festival is observed lasting 3 days.
