Survival, Chapter 2: Broken Claw, Shattered Bone
The passage of time, besides simply marking the changing of the sun and stars, was a recent understanding. grandfather had lived, and then he had died. his body had been eaten by crows and sunk into the earth.

The clock on the wall ticked, marking the passage of time, but the coyote had no reason to hurry in the consumption of his feast.

Ultraviolet paused and thought about her duty to her people, she had been protecting her realm for almost a thousand years, immortal to the passage of time as her realm had always been. "fine...." she said after a long silence.

By the time we returned to the dragon weyr it was late in the day - the sun was setting, the shadows growing long - but the passage of time did nothing to dispel the reaction of the clan to their first sighting of the dragon weyr!

Disturbing the Mummy's Tomb
Kyran mewled impotently as his torture continued endlessly with no way for him to gauge the passage of time. eventually, once the hidden anthro was dazed from hours of overstimulation, he distantly made out the sounds of the party winding down.
Screw the New Year
He couldn't believe that taking someone as gifted as ash would be so easy, but every step of the way, he found a greater pleasure imbued on his flesh, and a greater distance between himself, and his concerns with trying to keep up with the passage of time.
Beyond the Meadows
