Currency:
There is currency within the system, but also actual currency for trade. The money used for trade exists in multiple coins.
There are, in order:
Dark - Night - Gloom - Dim - Pale - Glow - Spark - Bolt - Bright - Flash - Radiance
They increase by a factor of 10 in value each time. So 1 Dim is 10 Glooms, or 100 Nights, and so on. Think the brighter the better.

Time:
The very basic time units are the same in the world, and irl. There are 24 hours within a day. Then shit gets whacky.
10 Days make a Page, 10 Pages a Season, and 4 Seasons a Chapter. Essentially, 1 "Chapter" as an in-world time unit, is a little longer than an irl year.
10 Chapters are called an Act, 100 Chapters a Saga. Think Decade and Century.
The general time is split into Books, which are basically the equivalent of an Era. They can end arbitrarily, usually with some sort of cataclysmic event.
If anyone has general questions about the world, please post them under this chapter, and I'll try to update it! This will be moved to appear before Chapter 0.
