Shortly

Shortly: A new measure of time initiated by the Roggy-folk of first generation north vanners. While ‘shortly’ could be determined to be classed as a small amount of moments; it could also be classified by unintended delays that could potentially take many moments. It is in fact an extended definition of the term ‘moment’ in of itself. Shortly: the opposite of Jiffy.
