Hello Everyone! Rorujo here, adding on to this post with a little explanation of the current year and age. You might have seen throughout the official history of Mirugan the term "age." I understand many of you may be confused by this, so I'm going to try and make it clear for you. Put simply, an age is just another name for a century. The age is always 1 less than the actual century. To fully understand this I have prepared an example. According to "The Dawn of Mirugan" by igmikey, the World Forge occurred in the year 129. (If you want to learn more about this, go read it in the official history!) Because of the unparalleled importance of this event, the range it occurs in (years 100-199) is considered Age 0. After that would be the first age, which describes years 200-299. The following ages follow this pattern. Age | Years | 0 (World Forge) | 100-199 | 1 | 200-299 | 2 | 300-399 | 3 | 400-499 | 4 | 500-599 | 5 | 600-699 |
And in more recent times it will look something like this. Age | Years | 15 | 1600-1699 | 16 | 1700-1799 | 17 (Current Age) | 1800-1899 |
The year is 1805, and we are in the 17th age. I hope this helps!

Just a quick question, could you please add the real world equivalents next to the days, months and seasons as in different places they are often ordered differently while written down (Sunday being first and Saturday being last for example) and the second month looks very similar to January. Sorry for probably being slow here but I just want to verify what's what before I use any.

Also, possibly have a Sign (or preferably something more flashy ) In Rull for Today's Date.

Sorry for probably being slow here but I just want to verify what's what before I use any. No problem! Here you go: Months | Taisham | January | Jamura | February | Sabani | March | Aine | April | Adar | May | Saven | June | Moldam | July | Choren | August | Shaldine | September | Nesen | October | Danu | November | Fronza | December |
Days | Samno | Sunday | Mitori | Monday | Tendren | Tuesday | Welsong | Wednesday | Timesend | Thursday | Finard | Friday | Sarcolay | Saturday |
Seasons | Zicamgar's Rise | Spring | Zicamgar's Reign | Summer | Zicamgar's Idle | Fall | Zicamgar's Silence | Winter |

Perhaps during the colder months you should consider adding a light snow in rull? The major cities at least. Or not if its too lag inducing.

Just wondering if anyone could give a quick confirmation for lore I am working on - dates pass IRL not IRP right (so every in game sunset isn't a new day, but instead every time the real earth rotates 360 degrees it's a new day)?

That's how I've handled it for simplicities sake with the herald.
