Settings always use the generic rules from the PHB and DMG, except for what is explicitly stated to be otherwise by the setting material.
Ah. It isn't discussed. Then it isn't setting lore. Especially since the setting predatss any discussion of where magic-users draw energy from or how they do it. Even if you take the general discussion from the 1e DMG as lore, there is nothing to state that other external factors (such as moon phase) don't play a role on practice.
