Three Winters Calendar

[kaitou]

I have been fiddling with worldbuilding for Three Winters off and on for a few years now. The main thing I have done is the calendar. And being as that actually ties into knowing what's going on with Franklin's articles and journals, I thought I'd go ahead and post that

There are 15 months in the calendar, three for each of the five seasons. The five seasons are based on the five traditional Chinese elements. So the year goes:

Water:
1 Ice
2 Cleansing
3 Fog

Wood:
4 Moss
5 Planting
6 Grass

Fire:
7 Light
8 Kindling
9 Smoke

Earth:
10 Soil
11 Harvesting
12 Stone

Metal:
13 Silver
14 Crafting
15 Glass

The main bit of 3W is taking place in the months of Kindling & Smoke.
