What is Turnsend?
R’ki, rider of green Sherbeth and her dragon
by ResQdog51
What’s ‘Turnsend’?
"It’s a way of keeping track of when a new Turn begins."
Why would you want to know when a new Turn begins?
"Humans like to know how old things are. They use Turns to count. Turnsend lets them know that it is time to add another Turn to an age."
Oh.
That’s silly.
"Yes, sometimes I think so too.... until they use it as an excuse to throw a party."
A party? Like... with Harpers? And music? And lots of people?
