Partway through Winter in Hieron, an extended eclipse takes place in which the sun is blocked by Del and Bri, the two moons of the skies over Hieron. Much like the wintry weather from the Autumn in Hieron Holiday Special, what started as a freak occurrence continues with no end in sight.
The Forest Party witnesses the start of the eclipse during their initial confrontation in Old Man's Chin with the Ordennans, while the Mountain Party is inside Rosemerrow's Old Museum at the time, and emerges to see that the sky is dark.

The eclipse ends when Ephrim unites the crescent blade and hilt, returning a sun to the sky on Stratum Zero.
Days[edit | edit source]
Days seem to run in a 36-hour cycle, which can be broken down into 12-hour sections of normal darkness, dim light, and complete darkness.
It is unclear whether the days of the week are still being used during the eclipse.
