This one, the second Era of this world... the aptly called Age of Pursuit...390Please respect copyright.PENANAo5Z5ElXL5h
The Centra were gone but the world would continue, still bound to their will but390Please respect copyright.PENANArwNOk9EuUA
now without their guiding hand. Instead, it would be all that they had left behind that390Please respect copyright.PENANAbozaYkx46g
would now set a new curse for the world after them. Once the Centra had claimed this390Please respect copyright.PENANAMP5Zp9Xmla
world to themselves, thanks to their mastery of all sciences, magics and technology390Please respect copyright.PENANAyclqZqvvyn
that provided them with the unparalleled (hateful profanities to some and cause for390Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5ci5CU0Y5
divine worship to others) that ran rampant across the entire planet to this very day.390Please respect copyright.PENANAjTuiusyhsW
All that they built and accomplished, all that defined their very existence; an entire390Please respect copyright.PENANAYmFUlUFG0T
empire spanning across all continents, all seas and the one sky, was left behind for390Please respect copyright.PENANA4utiRaAVwg
those that would eventually follow.390Please respect copyright.PENANAcnNF1yVN3k
Who would dare guess how long it came to pass since the world woke up one day in390Please respect copyright.PENANA7i7uziFiYE
complete silence, the sound of their rulership absent, before life would finally resume390Please respect copyright.PENANAXcvuiCdVzr
its course? With no more thunderous machines or hovering cities, and with no more390Please respect copyright.PENANAGnKFWPopTT
Centra to command it all, an entire world was now free. How long for the first races390Please respect copyright.PENANACvSVwmUA59
to sprout forth and begin their own curse, and does any of it matter?390Please respect copyright.PENANACicpbJKJ8F
Eventually, of course, they did. And little by little they grew. At first, little more390Please respect copyright.PENANAp5aXnrknF7
than animals scrapping for food but in time they would master several forms of390Please respect copyright.PENANA8lmWPV90rK
hunting and fishing, and from there they would evolve to the races of our current time.390Please respect copyright.PENANAxxvzk2n39D
Slowly but surely, that was how the current races of this world came about. Humans390Please respect copyright.PENANAx08qtGpMvx
and those that would later call themselves the Nharkim as well as countless others;390Please respect copyright.PENANAbdWeyNYayq
Twinkledinnes, Sandrackar, Maruic, Dreibos and many more. And for an exceedingly390Please respect copyright.PENANAmffH4eTW9Z
long time, they were just that, tribes of fishermen and hunters struggling to find shelter390Please respect copyright.PENANAzJzlHaLvqt
from the heavy rains. Nothing more than primitive and superstitious creatures, each390Please respect copyright.PENANA1kX4sbvcaK
with their customs and fears for the world may have been silent, the Centra absent,390Please respect copyright.PENANAnI8CWN3iiW
but fear still roamed the lands and kept all living things in check, regardless of beliefs.390Please respect copyright.PENANAWDNechigF7
And would continue to do so for aeons. I would claim it still does so, even today, if390Please respect copyright.PENANAKfsjeqK2Tr
only for the less privileged.390Please respect copyright.PENANAEb9fBD1D8X
Our current Era really began, as always, with an apparent meaningless action of390Please respect copyright.PENANArqavVB3M14
not much importance, but enough to start the largest of all chain of events. That small390Please respect copyright.PENANAziHvNk0Hg4
gesture that opened the way for what would define our world to this very day; the Era390Please respect copyright.PENANAftjmS1L0mx
of Pursuit began, the moment a member of the small and meek tribe of Twinkledinnes,390Please respect copyright.PENANAxsye8wClRt
one of the tiniest races one could ever hope to meet, decided to venture forth into one390Please respect copyright.PENANAjZ21O9v33l
of the forbidden zones. Any area where Centra remnants were known to exist were390Please respect copyright.PENANAwozDQloAP8
best avoided - a taboo.390Please respect copyright.PENANA129LKQroto
What was the motive that drove such a small creature?390Please respect copyright.PENANAtsN1ccUGej
That is now lost to us, dissolved in the ebb and flow of time but the result of such an390Please respect copyright.PENANAmvx46fvnBr
action defines all things today. Into one of the Centra ruins that Twinkledinne went390Please respect copyright.PENANAaeq9206kUi
and when he came out, he did so with something in his hands. That very moment,390Please respect copyright.PENANAcBwpK2kVgr
where this small creature showed there was not only nothing to fear from those areas390Please respect copyright.PENANAY7wC8RB7RO
but there were also rewards to be picked up, that was when this Era truly began.390Please respect copyright.PENANAgas7ZwYf38
Word began to spread, and the veil of fear and superstition was lifted. All tribes,390Please respect copyright.PENANAOEuBJBgECc
in time, came to learn that there was nothing to fear from venturing into Centra390Please respect copyright.PENANA7HyKqVmFMN
territories. No longer were these Centra remnants cursed places, to be feared and390Please respect copyright.PENANASmxhDGP2XB
avoided for either religious reasons imposed by most tribes or the mere common sense390Please respect copyright.PENANAHjsnKnQWMc
of the passing traveller. No. Now anything Centra was a place to be actively sought out390Please respect copyright.PENANAjQf4jSNMnU
and where fortune could be found. One by one every tribe of every race got into this,390Please respect copyright.PENANAkF8dXdKomz
offering handsome rewards to anyone presenting them with anything made by Centra,390Please respect copyright.PENANAtYcUoARLGL
even to those outside their own race.390Please respect copyright.PENANADvyH2DtwaR
And so, greed was ironically enough, the will that broke any previous isolation and390Please respect copyright.PENANAEMUj2aw5CE
made most embrace outside relations. But what brought all the races together would390Please respect copyright.PENANAA88fsHEfwK
also tear them apart. At first, most things were bought and sold as decorum, but as390Please respect copyright.PENANAvwfDh8m9pR
time went on and the races kept evolving and learning from these finds, their value and390Please respect copyright.PENANAdIk59WQ4uI
their importance kept increasing.390Please respect copyright.PENANArjJCaQBuIN
From the study and learning of these Centra finds, most races began evolving,390Please respect copyright.PENANAA3TKwWoaCk
building, finding cures for the sick and easier ways to withstand the cold storms.390Please respect copyright.PENANAMZuOqPyyh5
It became obvious to all that this was their future, that the finding of more and more390Please respect copyright.PENANAoFWTsEdpsK
Centra technology, or anything concerning it, was their new path.
