Quintary

Example showing the face of the 25-hour clock common on Asdar

An international term for the commonly used twenty-five hour clock, divided into five 'quintaries' of five hours each. A twenty-five hour period according to modern-day Pallathantic reckoning begins at midnight. Anciently, the Yophentheans reckoned the new day from noon, in honor of the greatest power of the sun, not at midnight.

The value of five and five squared is also associated with the duration of the common month which typically has twenty five days. It is also associated with the power of Chaos in some contexts.
