Tyrian Timeline
The Mouvelian Calendar
The Mouvelian calendar (named after Grand Patriarch Mouvel, the first high priest of the Church of Dwayna) begins counting years from the moment the gods left Tyria. This event is known as the Exodus. Years before this date are labeled BE (Before the Exodus). Years after this date are AE (After the Exodus). Years prior to the year 1 AE count down, getting smaller as they get closer to the time of the Exodus (just as they do in the Gregorian calendar).
There are four seasons and 360 days in the Mouvelian year:
Season of the Zephyr (Air aligned) days 1-90
Season of the Phoenix (Flame aligned) days 91-180
Season of the Scion (Water aligned) days 181-270
Season of the Colossus (Earth aligned) days 271-360
Calendar starts at year 1 AE (The first year after the Exodus)
