Starting month?

[Karui Kage]

I looked for this in the first few issues for the AP, but didn't notice what starting month this was in. I know the year is '08, but wasn't sure if it was meant to start in the beginning of that year, the middle, or what. Or if it was just up to the DM.

Thanks for any help! :)

I did do some digging before our campaign kicked off, but couldn't find anything concrete.

We started in Erastus, since that was pretty close to the actual month we began (July) and it meshed with the backstory of a PC who was in the city for the Breaching Festival.

As a happy accident...

Spoiler:

assuming no protracted expeditions into the Dead Warrens, Trinia Sabor's execution could fall on the day of the Founding Festival.

I just picked a spring day so I started the campaign on Oathday, Pharast 24, 1478.
I use DM Genie so it has a timekeeper to track the time, days, years, months, ect. I put in the Golarion Calendar so it tracks everything properly. It also does weather so I wanted to simulate a spring in a temperate coastal town, plenty of rainy days...

A History of Ashes states it takes place in late Spring. So the earlier adventures should occur during late Winter, early Spring timeframe...
