A timeline of the Gondolin RPG based on real time and time passing in the game. The two timelines are rather out of sync and several anachronisms (pregnancies!) and inconsistencies with canon (such as the Nost-na-Lothion and Tarnin Austa being celebrated consecutively, not as spring and summer festivals respectively) remain.
