Recent History The past 200 years seems long, but the scaring Age of Ash, and the staining Silent Era seemed to fly by as most of the old world knoledge bubbeled and boiled in a backwater. Only untill 180 years ago did the flow of knowledge and the spread of literature began again. This is the first time written language was seen floating along the libraries and mead halls.
