/* Era system */
= Era system =
There have been a number of periods of time throughout the [[History of the Mazes]] where the calendar was symbolically reset to year zero. As of today, the calendar has been reset six times, making the current era '''Era 7''', and the current year is '''Year 704'''. Usually, when referring to a year of the current yearera, all that is needed is to simply say the year number (such as "704" or "year 704"), however if the era number must be specified, such as in historical contexts, it is possible to add the prefix "E" followed by the era number. As such, the extended form of the current year is '''Era 7, Year 704''' or '''E7-704'''.
Calendar resets meant going all the way back to the first day of the first month, in what would then become another year 0. Every time they occurred, regardless of what the day of the week was on the last day of last year, the first day of the first year in a new era is also automatically reset to an Advenday. There is much symbolism in doing so, but generally it is because it is considered lucky (see below for more details).
