Formally the Citadel Of The Prima Locas Federation, the largest
supercity and; capital territory of the planet. The term Priloca
originally began as slang but has become widespread in its use for both
the government body and the Citadel itself.
Similarly to Priloca, the name Durendel is dual-use, referring to both

The daily cycle for Durendel operates on forty hour days divided into
four quarters, dawn, day, dusk and dark, with five day weeks and
fifty-five week years. The system matches the slow day cycle the planet

compatible to the yearly orbit of The Cradle around Mother Sol. This
system is reviled by most of higher education on Durendel due to its
inaccuracy with seasonal weather patterns and the actual orbit of the
planet around the primary sun, but appreciated by the majority for its
simplicity to measure ages and days on a rigid calendar.
