Editing Unwritten: System Reference Document/Dramatic Time and Milestones (section)

==Sessions==

A traditional way to measure game time is in sessions. When everyone sits down to play, that’s the beginning of a session. The session ends when you and your friends pack it up for the night and go home. For most people, a session is about 2 to 4 hours, but there is no theoretical limit.

Sessions do not necessarily reflect anything in the dramatic pacing of the story. However, it is a useful concept to use for pacing both player time and game time. At the end or the beginning of a session is a natural time for an interlude, either for wrapping up what has happened or preparing for the next round of the game.

===At the Beginning of a Session===

* Recap what happened the last session.
* Refill all of the characters’ fate points up to their maximum refresh. If they have more than their refresh, they keep the extra fate points.
* Remove any minor or  moderate consequences marked as recovering. 

===At the End of a Session===
* Go around the table and ask each player “As of right now, what is your character most interested in finding out?”
* Each character gets a minor milestone.
