[ hawke will just walk alongside tadashi, quite content to spend some time with him. he is one of her favorite people in cerealia after all, even if she hasn't ever really made attempts to share much about herself with him.
well, she's a bit due, she supposes. ]
Okay, alright. So, this is... April, right? That's what you call it? The fourth month. At home, we call it Cloudreach or Eluviesta, if you want to use the original Tevinter name for it. Like, for instance, today is April 26th and the... year, you call it 2014? I think I heard that somewhere, though it doesn't really matter, I'll use it as an example.
[ as she speaks, she is definitely gesturing with her hands. trying to break this all down and translate it is actually kind of complicated and it shows on hawke's face as she hopes she's getting it right. dang, the culture shock here. ]
Then we have April 26th, 2014. That's how you put it here. For us, it would be... 9:14 Dragon, though that's weird because back home it's currently 9:31 Dragon. It would be the 26th day of Cloudreach in the year 9:31 Dragon. This is the ninth age, the Dragon Age, and the 31st year of the Dragon Age. Ages last 100 years, for the record.
[ and then a sigh and she presses a hand to her forehead. ]
Oh, Maker. I don't know why I'm explaining the calendar to you, but I need to so I can tell you about the holidays.
