A lunai-na lasts for 42 days; the Ribbons move across the sky at a slightly slower speed than the Ring spins. This causes the Ring to eclipse any given Ribbon after 42 days.* This is usually measured by a particularly large Ribbon that's shaped like a Yizda (type of dragon). *I can't seem to work o...
