In the thread titles, it says "Down the Morlock Hole II" starts on 06 July 2021.
Shouldn't that be 06 June 2021?
Because otherwise Blackjack and Olaf and Earc would leave for their expedition AFTER the dragon is expected to come back for his sacrifice...
...not a typo - Blackjack and Earc are the ones who broke the clock to begin with. When everyone else went on expeditions in early June, you two engaged in construction projects and personal research which advanced your clocks, and thus the town clocks, into July when you then kicked off an expedition before the others caught up.

That's what I've been wrestling with. I originally was going for the full moon, but that would've had a virgin be demanded before Bremen's trial even began, and that made my head hurt. By pushing to new moon, I can have the clock almost caught up.
Either way I need to hand-waive something. Right now, I'm opting to have it be an Event in late June/early July because the maximum amount of characters will be in town (having arrived back and staying around to catch up with the clock). As long as nobody dies in the Events, my hand-waive can be "and they got better before their next expedition left town." I think I like that better than hand-waiving it into the future-time and then having it happen when few or no PCs are in town to participate because you've all left on expeditions again (which we also want).
I'm open to argument, though.
