Kun Qalasi Calendar (ancient Egyptian calendar)
« on: May 22, 2022, 02:39:25 am »
Below is a calendar indicating special dates for the Qalasians. It's a shameless copy from an ancient Egyptian calendar. The fennecs followed it more-or-less loosely, except the dates highlighted, those were events/festivities strictly observed, with descriptions at the bottom.
