Time

There are eight time periods; midnight, pre-dawn, dawn, mid-morning, noon, mid-afternoon, nightfall and night.

The light levels change as each of the eight time periods change.  The light spell and nightsight potion only last as long as one of the time periods.

Each period lasts 1 (real-life) hour each, and there are 3 game days per one real life day.
