🕰️ TIME SYSTEM IN THE STORY
🔹 One Day — 20 Time "Ticks"
Each day is divided into 20 units called "ticks", numbered 1 to 20 in a circular pattern.
At the center of every clock is a crystal that glows in different colors depending on the time.
Ticks Light Color Meaning
1–5 Pale Gray-White Gentle dawn
6–9 Warm Yellow Morning sunlight
10–12 Bright Yellow Midday, harsh sun
13–15 Orange Glow Sunset
16–20 Deep Darkness Night
📌 Each tick is clearly numbered, so people can tell time without clock hands or digital displays.
🕰️ Common clock types:
Wall-mounted (used in homes and offices).
Wristwatch (portable and widely used).

🔹 One Week — 10 Days
Unlike Earth's 7-day week, this world follows a 10-day week:
Day 1: Weekstart.
Day 2–9: Second Day to Ninth Day.

People refer to days by number for clear communication, planning, festivals, rituals, and military scheduling.
