in the epilogue of FLF (click to show/hide) it sais that it is ALMOST 1 year later, however it is only when a Marat gets pregnet by another marat, and human pregnantacy is 9 months. she found out with about 1 month to go till land fall. and spent about maybe 2-3 weeks traveling to riva from land fall where Tavi found out about the kid. so at minimum by the time tavi finds out about the baby, Kitai is already 6 weeks pregnant. so is her pregnantcy 13 months or am I missing some point here

At the time of the Epilogue, it had only been 6 months since "Third Calderon"

(click to show/hide)Shorter than that. Their kid is already born by the end of the story; remember how they took "Desi" with them down the aisle?

(click to show/hide)Tavi to Ehren" What's happened to us ehren Last year we were marching with leagions and saving the relm, Now we are planning roads and implimenting policies" to me this means that it has been almost a year, or else he would have said something liek 6 months ago, or 3 months ago, not LAST YEAR
Also the kid was Born only a week prior, that is why I was asking about the timeline

Priscellie:
Depends on how their calendar is structured. In April, I'll refer to something that happened last October as "Last Year," and that's six months. Especially if something momentous has happened since then, like the end of a freaking war that led them to restructure their entire system of recording time!
Remember, people don't think in precise measurements when they speak. Grant fictional characters the same leeway. :D
blackwolf:
Maybe we're just different Pris, because If something happened 6 months ago I accually refer to it as 6 months ago, It accually has to be close to and I mean 10-12 months before I refer to something as LAST YEAR, Which could also be the source of my confusion
