the nominal time

The time before the passings

... 2001 P

Uncountable years have passed between the creation of the world and the beginning of the Era's. None of living humans can perceive this time, for it is endless. however, we can count back from FE 1 to the awakening of men, for they were told by Aminduis to

"Incribe thy occurrences, and thou will learn from thy mistakes."
And so humanity did. although there are not many detailed recordings from before the Era's, some is known, and can be put in timely perspective.

    Formation of the tribes
    Founding

    over this period, the humans on Tordisti created their famous tribes: huge gatherings of people all, working together. Their size would span from a few thousand people to a hundred times a thousand times a thousand. It was during this time that the humans lived most plentifulof all times. However, the inferiority invoked in mankind after the Dwarves were created caused them to quarrel among each other, and conflicts stained their existance.

    The birth of the Aerin
    Metaphysical / Paranormal event

    At this date Gilmithiën attempted making a new intelligent species for her own, to compete with humanity. She picked one of her birds out of the sky and abducted a particularly big human. She merged the two together and thus the Aerin were born. She decided that neither Tordisti nor Aidun nor Merdan nor Kangolar would be the right places for the Aerin to live. Thus the Aerin were the first to live in Morgate, which was an untouched area before. Here the species thrived, and a great civilization was built.
