I didn't quite follow.
The Story So Far, Book 15: "So the year ended and another began, yet even before the snows of winter had begun to thaw..." Books 13 and 14 both take place in MS5075, which ends and MS5076 starts during the winter months.
However, I've spotted another one.Book 14, tssf: "Only six months ago the evil Cener Druids of Ruel attempted to enact Naar's revenge." Then, later on, "After emerging from Ruel triumphant, your quest fulfilled, you returned home to Sommerlund and the Kai Monastery where you resumed your duties as Grand Master. Three months later, on the day that saw the first fall of winter snow, you were visited by Lord Rimoah. Once again he found himself the reluctant bearer of ill news. Your friend Guildmaster Banedon, whilst helping with the reclamation of wastelands close to the Maakengorge, had been abducted by a war-band of Giaks under the command of Nadziranim sorcerers."
