AH merely published the material. Greg et al. wrote them. But
if you use the extra season to say that it dates before the Sun
Stop then what do you make of the Dara Happan Calender which uses
ten 'seasons'? Or the Pamaltean calender which uses four? In
any case, the number of days in the Kralori Calender are the
same.

I think that the change in time that was said to have occured
at the Sunstop refers to the perception of time ('The Days
are Shorter!'). However this is said in Cults of Terror to have
been only noticed by the Westerners.

Chris who has called himself a God Learner seeks to cast doubt on an
Orlanthi Myth by implying that it is God Learner contaminated. Then
how does he justify the God Learner perception that Time began at
the Dawn as true? The only evidence for it is God Learner metaphysics.
