Mouvelian calendar

The Mouvelian Calendar is the official calendar in Tyria. It is named after Grand Patriarch Mouvel, the first high-priest of the Church of Dwayna.

The calendar counts years relative to the Exodus of the Gods, an event that took place 1072 years prior to the beginning of the game. Years Before the Exodus (BE) and After the Exodus (AE) increase the further the date is from the Exodus.

For an overview of key dates from the Mouvelian Calendar, see History of Tyria.

Calendar does not affect gameplay. Except for special real-world celebrations within certain towns, the "current date" within the gameworld is only specified to the year, not the month nor the day

Calendar Seasons
