- A second on Dracca matches a second on Earth, but a day on Dracca has 11,904 more seconds than a day on Earth, and a year has 435 more days.
- These differences mean that a year on Dracca is about 2.5 times longer than a year on Earth
- So a dragon's age must so be multiplied by 2.5 to be known in Earth's year
