Drabble Prompt 7: Time

By definition, a "drabble" is a work of fiction exactly 100 words in length. Similarly, a "drawble" is a piece of art, generally a simple drawing or sketch, that requires no more than about 20-30 minutes to complete.

In light of the fact that this prompt is going up a day late (oops), your challenge is to create a drabble or drawble based on the prompt: time. In the O.Z., people generally speak in terms of "annuals" rather than "years." Is it possible that the O.Z. annual and the Earth year do not exactly coincide in some way? How would people keep time in the O.Z. if either the sun seeder or the anti-sun seeder had come into use? What does "time" mean to the various inhabitants of the O.Z.?
