Night 49: M-A Block Hallway
[From here.]
Edgar awaited Gren a moment before starting the trek to Celes' room. Though he'd not been to the blocks where the women resided (the nurse wouldn't allow him to even go near that hall, and he had an inkling why), he had a vague idea of their whereabouts. He only hoped he could find her room quickly- in the event she was still within the institute's walls, he hoped to catch her before she wandered too far.
He clicked his light on as he walked ahead of Gren, hoping it'd be easier to keep track of him. "The doors unlock each night, as you've probably guessed. No one quite knows why. Aside from tempting us with escape, Landel releases monsters to roam the hallways. I've only seen one, but heard of many others."

The adoption of a seven-day calendar in human societies was almost universal. There had been a few notable exceptions. Most people were unfamiliar with all of them aside from the possible explanation behind the Ides of March, which was now just a one-month warning for tax season.
It did, to the prepared mind, indicate that this was Earth. The stars might be wrong, but the lunar cycle had remained intact enough to give rise to the week. Not that the patients could corroborate this. The weather certainly helped the New Jersey argument. That was possibly an American gestalt opinion made manifest; where the fuck else would be so crappy? Still, the moon hadn't put in enough of an appearance aside from being bloody and ominous to verify the schedule.
