Not hallucinating! The descriptions can also change based on the season. If you play around with the DungeonMaker system, you can actually see how this works in there.

(You can use tags such as <evening>Sunlight descends beyond the gate. </evening> for: dawn, morning, afternoon, dusk, evening, and night.)

Definitely a thing and definitely very cool, I like it a lot too.

As Rakim noted, day/night differences are definitely a thing and there are a number of rooms that have seasonal variations too. (There is actually also an option to have descriptions that change with the weather, though currently there are only a couple of these rooms that I can think of, and they're both in Omrazir.) Omrazir will ultimately have a lot of time-of-day differences to create a very different atmosphere from day to night. If you like the day/night variations, you might also check out some of the seasonality in the forest and farmland areas around St. Loomis to see some trees change their foliage and drop their leaves soon, and to see the harvest and changing crops. :)

The night sky is still a little sketchy right now and in serious need of a revamp, but I'm glad someone is enjoying the Avarian heavens anyway!
