About the time in Elapatha
Elapatha follows the civil time used across its region of Sri Lanka; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Elapatha sits at latitude 6.66, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 18m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:02 and sunset at 06:20 local time, giving 12h 18m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (6.66, 80.37) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Elapatha.
