G-013: Crystal Coast Resort, Ranulf’s On-The-Water, The Tank

 

Mundo Zargo is an odd place like that compared to the rest of the Dominion.

Because a majority of places don’t have a day/night that makes any difference to people, the Dominion doesn’t have time zones and everyone runs with a clock that is synchronised.  However, on Mundo Zargo the planetary rotations are almost identical length as the standard Dominion Cycle, and the spaceport and main settlements at a longitude where it currently gets light in Blue Shift – which is ‘evening’ for a majority of people across the Dominion.

So the answer is:  It varies.  Some people still work in Green shift and have daylight to relax in after work.  Some people (more than is common in other places) work in Blue and operate on a more traditional light-dark rhythm, relaxing in Red and sleeping in Green.  Some people still have to keep stuff running and work in Red.

It’s fair to say that as a result, Mundo Zargo is both busier and more relaxed than other places – with the population more distributed across a Cycle, Mundo Zargo doesn’t experience the same peaks and troughs as many other places, and it has a large enough population to support a level of constant activity.  

So after all that it might be better to say that a concept of ‘evening’ doesn’t really apply – Mundo Zargo is always busy, but rarely hectic, and ‘evening’ is an individual (or your boss’) choice.

    When we were discussing the habits of our current target with Zayaire, did we think to check which work/sleep cycle he was on? If not, can we say we did? 🤪 Since our characters would probably have thought to query that but we don’t live in with the same cycles and might have completely forgotten that aspect…
