 ===== Epoch Events =====
-Most dates you will find referring to historical events use the **"Fall Calendar",** counting its years since the fall of [[settings:torandor]] and civilization's landing on the planet of [[settings:jaern|Jaern]] for Jaern, and the fall of the great empire of [[settings:cahyali:dahabu|Dahabu]] for Cahyali. These events occurred at most a few centuries apart, though - due to the marginalization and vitriol against the Tarusian church shortly after landing on Jaern - the exact date of Torandor's destruction is not known. For simplicity's sake, most take the same date as the well-documented Cahyalian Day of Solar Wrath.

-Some scholars, especially of older works, use the Founding Calendar: this calendar counts from the founding of the ancient civilization of Aldeberon on Torandor, and of the Dahabu Empire on Cahyali. The Founding Calendar date can be calculated by adding 7524 to the Fall Calendar year. //Dates which are written in the 10000s or later are most likely in the Fall Calendar.//

-* Note: If you find a date on the website written in the Fall Calendar, please notify the PFC Story Board to issue a correction. Effective January 2025, all dates will move to the Fall Calendar and the only Founding Calendar dates to remain in writing should be old adventure writeups.

 No matter which epoch event is used, the months, days, and weeks remain consistent across all calendar systems.

 === Day of Rebirth, Irkusk 16 ===
-Celebrated by Isisites, this day commemorates when Isis returned to Jaern in 10048 and cured the lands of a plague that had been ravishing it. The Day of Rebirth is a rather toned-down holiday, with many celebrating quietly at home and perhaps visiting a local temple of Isis to pay respects.
