No Sunrise Yet?

I'm slightly disappointed. I though we were going to see a sunrise a couple hours ago, but it turns out that this time of day is just called "sunrise" (cex keltax) because this is about the time that the sun (or rather, Cex, hyekh, Jed's "sun") usually rises at their sort of prime meridian, which on Jed is actually the point on the planet where Coaxta appears directly overhead -- Xala don't believe in time zones. We're a few degrees off, and with the incredible slowness of this damp planet those few degrees of latitude translate to the sun rising a couple of Earth days later.

But, we are going to be going east later on, so the yela'kaja suggested we might run into the sun a little early if we get the tour going a little quicker. The Ngana don't seem to mind so much, though they were looking forward to sunrise two. As far as I know, the Kesata are completely indifferent. The yela'kaja said this particular delegation had been here before and they are no longer very impressed by some of the natural phenomena on the planet. I keep saying planet, even though Jed is a moon -- but its so hard to call the place a moon when its just as solid under your feet as the Earth is. And I mean that in a very literal way -- I have detected no difference in gravity here. The yela'kaja says it's very slightly lower than Earth-normal, but I don't feel it at all.
