    The shortest is either Shadowbringers or Heavensward, both of which lack much in the way of confirmed long-period travel, so it's all down to stuff like 'how long do you think it takes to get an airship to the Sea of Clouds' and 'how long does the WoL sleep on average'.
    Heaven's ward is at least 6-9 months because it covers a woman going from pregnant but not obviously so to having a child.

    In a bit of devil's advocate here: it might be less than that just by factoring in that they might've just not wanted to make an entirely new 'pregnant woman' skeleton for one NPC to use temporarily. The scale is most likely still months, but there's ways to weasel out of the pregnancy being a smoking gun.

    Nothing is ever going to convince me less that 6 months, minimum, per expac (barring shadowbringers which had time dialation shenanigans going on) was going down. Even end walker has to have taken at least 3 or so months.

    And frankly, I always think of it as closer to a year per expansion, including post game, again, with the exception of ShdBr, due aforementioned shenanigans

    The ever expanding bubble stopped making sense with stormblood.

    Also pretty sure the pair mentioned being newlyweds but I'd have to go digging in my endless journey to even potentially confirm
