The Runic Era was a period in time where the races grew into their own civilizations. The Runic Era is marked with the beginning of language and written history, which before had been continued on with oral and pictorial traditions. Civilizations grew and with time The Pantheon gifted the races with magic.
The Era of Enchantment, the current era, is one of truth, history and discovery. The magic that The Pantheon brought to the races helped to expand the now great nations. With advances being made every day the civilizations which started as simple creatures are now enlightened.
