What Season does the Personal story begins?
Never stated, however there’s an event in Wayfarer’s Foothills that says that a norn couldn’t make The Great Hunt (norn tutorial) because of a winter storm. That implies that the beginning of the storyline is either late 1324 AE or early 1325 AE (possibly depending on your race).
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.
I kinda wish they’d put a day/month date on the timeline of missions really.
Because personally I’d like to know how long between missions there was. Like how long it took the player from Claw Island to Fort Trinity and such, because IMO a chunk of that would be travel time.
The Mouvelian calendar doesn’t have named months – only the Canthan Calendar does. To the Mouvelian calendar and Dynastic Reckoning (Tyrian and Elonian calendars respectively), months exist but like weeks are nameless. Dating is done by season instead of month in the format of <season> <day of season> <year> (in Cantha, it’s done by month in the format of <day of month> <month> <year>).
And apparently including the day was intended to be added to the story journal, and was the entire purpose behind adding those 5 days. They’ve scrapped that, resulting in just adding the year, but we still have that asinine 5 days.
