According to Antiquarius Paravakonen, Distinguished Lecturer in Early Modern Coscivian Literature at X University in [[Primóra]], the only essential characteristics of a ''Hekuvihírsda'' are that the work must be fictitious, composed in the [[Coscivian civlization|Coscosphere]] between 2XXXX and 2XXXX, and set primarily in Caphiria with a focus on Caphirian characters. However, he notes that there are several {{wp|genre conventions}} that came to define the ''Hekuvihírsda'', and that adherence to these conventions became more uniform with the passage of time.
Although most ''Hekuvihírsda'' take place roughly around the times that they were written, a large number take place during earlier phases of Caphirian history, particularly in Ancient Caphiria.
