Even though it was early morning, it was bright and sunny in Torrinwood. That was natural, since daylight was not determined by the time of day in the Midnight realm, but on windcurrents. When the wind blew the burning fireballs away, it would darken, but otherwise it would stay bright.
But most of the time, there were enough burning fireballs in the sky so that even if some were blown away, others would maintain the light. Which is why the day cycle, in most places, was just based according to the biological cycle of the various races living there.
That is why, even though it was bright outside, most people were within the confines of their homes, fast asleep.
The excitement of the previous day had kept many up late, which is why many were bound to have a late start to this day. But some… some were still awake!
