Times of Day

The twin suns, Hú and Llyr catch the morning mists.

First Sunset (Lae Akad)

Ellandrians mark the day by the positions of the twin suns:
Erì Akad (AIR-ee AH-kahd)- First Sunrise, when the true sun, Hú rises
Erì Ada (AIR-ee AH-dah)- Second Sunrise- when the false sun, Llyr rises.
Àrd Hu (ARD-hyoo) – High Hú- High noon or midday, when Hú reached its zenith
Àrd Llyr (ARD LEER)- High Llyr, when Llyr reaches its apex in the sky. Often early afternoon, somewhere around 2 or 3 pm, depending on the time of the year.
Lae Akad (LAY AH-kahd)- First Sunset, when Llyr sets in the sky in the early evening
Lae Ada (LAY AH-da)- Second Sunset, when Hú sets, late evening, often few hours later after First Sunset.
