I had a thought about how Avali would measure Time. Since i read somewhere about Avalon being tidally locked to its parent world, possibly at a Lagrange point, it would make measuring time difficult in that the planet woudl have no rotation like earth. So for the Avali 'time' would become analogous to 'distance'. In old earth times before clocks and sundials were a thing, time was often measured in 'candles', as in the time it took for a new candle to burn all the way down.
My thought is that The Avali would measure time as the time it takes to cover a given distance on foot, and so their "Hours" would be referred to as "miles" or "leagues", or whatever the Avali terms for distance would be.
