Among the many planets in the Universe held between Chaos and Order, then one that had sentient species created by Order was Pipurim.

Though the Firmans did not keep exact calendars, it would be helpful as to how the other races kept the time in terms of realizing the effect of heavenly bodies on the planet, Pipurim.

The sun, Pinros shines the light on to the Pipurim, the earth. The earth revolves around the sun every two hundred days. The two moons, Rimupka and Wimupka revolve around the Pipurim. Rimupka is very fast and does so every week, while the Wimupka, the larger and the slower one, does so every month.

This resulted in a unique calendar system among the races descended from the Naras. Kala - time is divided thus. The Warsa, the time it takes for Pipurim to go around Pinros is divided into ten Masa. Masa is the time it takes for Wimupka to go around Pipurim. And each of these Masa have four Kapta, because Rimupka is four times faster than Wimupka to go around Pipurim. The Pipurim itself revolves around itself, by that time and thus, a Kapta has five Dinas.

Kapta Dina are Onlasdina, Dolasdina, Telasdina, Polasdina and Pilasdina.

The Masa in a Warsa are Onlasmasa, Dolasmasa, Telasmasa, Polasmasa, Pilasmasa, Silasmasa, Selasmasa, Enlasmasa, Nilasmasa, Onkasmasa.

As can be seen the names are in direct derivation from the language Pasen, and it would one day even be used among the Firmans if they venture out and contact others. This particular calendar system would be logical and would help historians record the lore.
