====Site History====

Origin was created in April 2015, opened to the public in May 2015 and was created by Madison Trupp with the help of CJ, Java and Argent. This site is not a prequel or sequel of any other existing site. ((http://origin.soundtrack-howl.com/guidebook.php#2))

====Time in Origin====

Months are referred to as Cycles; this is how characters keep track of their age and the passage of time. There are no seasons. Conditions within the cave remain the same throughout the year, provided nothing happens to upset that delicate harmony. Some believe that Origin Cave is a living, breathing entity, just like them and that it can spawn changes of its own accord, but evidence of that has yet to surface.
