# Seasons & Weather

The valley keeps its own clock, calendar and weather.

## The day

Mornings are long and nights pass quickly, so arriving after dark does not mean waiting for the town to wake up.

Shops keep hours. Villagers walk to work and go home. Some fish only bite after dark.

Sleeping at your farmhouse ends the day, sells whatever is in your shipping bin and saves your game. You never have to sleep. The day turns on its own.

## The seasons

Four seasons, twenty-eight days each, in order.

Most crops belong to a season or two, and the ground refuses anything out of season. Carrots are the exception and grow all year, so a farmer who arrives in the cold can still get started.

Winter is hard on a field, deliberately. It is when you fish, mine, cook and look after your animals instead.

Only farming follows the calendar. Everything else runs all year.

## Weather

Rain comes on its own schedule, and the longer the valley has been dry the likelier it gets. It waters every planted tile on your farm, which makes a wet morning the most useful weather there is.

In winter it snows instead.

## Events

Seasonal and limited-time events are planned. None exists yet.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.bloomshire.xyz/the-world/seasons-and-weather.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
