How to understand the day-system?

Hi, my current mission is "Catch the real kidnapper," and I have 6 days left until I leave for Matira. Under missions, it also says "Days left: 6." Does that mean I have to complete the mission within 6 days at the latest, or can I continue doing other missions like bounties until the 6 days are up, because that's when we'll go there, or because that's when the mission starts? The "6 days until we leave for Matira" is a bit confusing to me.

If you open the calendar, there is the day marked when some story events take parts. Also you get noticed by your party, if you are about to miss a deadline.

So easiest is to have a look at the calendar for the exact date.

You have 6 days till you leave gran trad, and go to matira. Thats means you have those days as free time to do whatever. Side quests, relation links, or just increase your royal virtues. Now, when you have x days left after finding out something, like stopping the necromancer guy, that means you have x days to prepare, and get it done, or game over.

SOmetimes not so easy to understand, in this case I had just 2 days left, glad that I decided to do the story mission with 2 days left. I could get the last bounty for 1 day costs, too. But I was scared after the breakfast talk with the party.
When something to do, do it, than take your time or do it in the middle. When somewhere to leave, do everything till u leave. I guess, I got it now.
