Unlike the temperate central region of the continent, the north had winter all year round, so the lengths of day and night differed greatly from those in the continent's center.
Here, the days were short and the nights long. Even in summer, nighttime lasted longer than twelve hours, while daytime lasted no more than ten hours, making it quite brief.
On the other hand, the temperature difference between day and night was not very great.
That was because, even during the day, the north of the continent rarely saw the sun throughout the year. Unless a Blizzard blew in, the difference between daytime and nighttime temperatures basically never exceeded 2°C.
Of course, even so, people rarely went outside on nights without wind and snow.
It was simply too cold outside. Aside from physically robust Swordsmen, ordinary people wished they could stay home by the fire twenty-four hours a day. If the clothing used in Queen Tistis's Kingdom had not been made from a relatively inexpensive magical silk capable of resisting severe cold, ordinary people would hardly dare venture out onto the streets in the north, where the average temperature reached minus fifty degrees Celsius.
