This one, the second Era of this world... the aptly called Age of Pursuit...100Please respect copyright.PENANA1asvTaKmZL
The Centra were gone but the world would continue, still bound to their will but100Please respect copyright.PENANAtGJy2emL9e
now without their guiding hand. Instead, it would be all that they had left behind that100Please respect copyright.PENANAFus5GFkkVf
would now set a new curse for the world after them. Once the Centra had claimed this100Please respect copyright.PENANAWl9orHGfHP
world to themselves, thanks to their mastery of all sciences, magics and technology100Please respect copyright.PENANAjE5dP0gKye
that provided them with the unparalleled (hateful profanities to some and cause for100Please respect copyright.PENANAXQexO5pbgX
divine worship to others) that ran rampant across the entire planet to this very day.100Please respect copyright.PENANAKA5bvZaCp4
All that they built and accomplished, all that defined their very existence; an entire100Please respect copyright.PENANAv4HwBhALhc
empire spanning across all continents, all seas and the one sky, was left behind for100Please respect copyright.PENANA6uEoIGLKdB
those that would eventually follow.100Please respect copyright.PENANAWcThzHLD4z
Who would dare guess how long it came to pass since the world woke up one day in100Please respect copyright.PENANANR1F19ny3L
complete silence, the sound of their rulership absent, before life would finally resume100Please respect copyright.PENANA1qPp2eutgz
its course? With no more thunderous machines or hovering cities, and with no more100Please respect copyright.PENANAOWu3OtB5lq
Centra to command it all, an entire world was now free. How long for the first races100Please respect copyright.PENANAeEJ8fDS0K2
to sprout forth and begin their own curse, and does any of it matter?100Please respect copyright.PENANAWjir8YU9Ez
Eventually, of course, they did. And little by little they grew. At first, little more100Please respect copyright.PENANAcMwRCjZE1r
than animals scrapping for food but in time they would master several forms of100Please respect copyright.PENANAxJbt8EVbic
hunting and fishing, and from there they would evolve to the races of our current time.100Please respect copyright.PENANAwsHaial2YW
Slowly but surely, that was how the current races of this world came about. Humans100Please respect copyright.PENANAf940X895tu
and those that would later call themselves the Nharkim as well as countless others;100Please respect copyright.PENANA4tiho8QaDm
Twinkledinnes, Sandrackar, Maruic, Dreibos and many more. And for an exceedingly100Please respect copyright.PENANApGNh8rtgCb
long time, they were just that, tribes of fishermen and hunters struggling to find shelter100Please respect copyright.PENANAy7yv6xLnle
from the heavy rains. Nothing more than primitive and superstitious creatures, each100Please respect copyright.PENANA8u4oEyRNaR
with their customs and fears for the world may have been silent, the Centra absent,100Please respect copyright.PENANAGNpPUtCnt0
but fear still roamed the lands and kept all living things in check, regardless of beliefs.100Please respect copyright.PENANAQHUEjzVVQR
And would continue to do so for aeons. I would claim it still does so, even today, if100Please respect copyright.PENANAqkWnkEezML
only for the less privileged.100Please respect copyright.PENANA5h2005DNYH
Our current Era really began, as always, with an apparent meaningless action of100Please respect copyright.PENANAKWr2xzvncK
not much importance, but enough to start the largest of all chain of events. That small100Please respect copyright.PENANAwMoVWuMkXd
gesture that opened the way for what would define our world to this very day; the Era100Please respect copyright.PENANANnjznxWCi9
of Pursuit began, the moment a member of the small and meek tribe of Twinkledinnes,100Please respect copyright.PENANAMA48vQ17dN
one of the tiniest races one could ever hope to meet, decided to venture forth into one100Please respect copyright.PENANA4rc5AMMImQ
of the forbidden zones. Any area where Centra remnants were known to exist were100Please respect copyright.PENANAcLmfLFWraD
best avoided - a taboo.100Please respect copyright.PENANATEu7quwAgu
What was the motive that drove such a small creature?100Please respect copyright.PENANAJRE3k5URKX
That is now lost to us, dissolved in the ebb and flow of time but the result of such an100Please respect copyright.PENANAIrbucDSD84
action defines all things today. Into one of the Centra ruins that Twinkledinne went100Please respect copyright.PENANAdIkp6khsZj
and when he came out, he did so with something in his hands. That very moment,100Please respect copyright.PENANAI4YQ4EqoZv
where this small creature showed there was not only nothing to fear from those areas100Please respect copyright.PENANAbd3ohY9SV4
but there were also rewards to be picked up, that was when this Era truly began.100Please respect copyright.PENANApnmURfs9bR
Word began to spread, and the veil of fear and superstition was lifted. All tribes,100Please respect copyright.PENANApUpLa0VyLY
in time, came to learn that there was nothing to fear from venturing into Centra100Please respect copyright.PENANAbiEQMkmbfc
territories. No longer were these Centra remnants cursed places, to be feared and100Please respect copyright.PENANA8WaijLDxRh
avoided for either religious reasons imposed by most tribes or the mere common sense100Please respect copyright.PENANA6ddG4mD4Wi
of the passing traveller. No. Now anything Centra was a place to be actively sought out100Please respect copyright.PENANAST20LpSgkI
and where fortune could be found. One by one every tribe of every race got into this,100Please respect copyright.PENANAKaxEHyVsk3
offering handsome rewards to anyone presenting them with anything made by Centra,100Please respect copyright.PENANAq3CkZYcrWt
even to those outside their own race.100Please respect copyright.PENANAMt7fnVN5M4
And so, greed was ironically enough, the will that broke any previous isolation and100Please respect copyright.PENANA7dWnJQVxMF
made most embrace outside relations. But what brought all the races together would100Please respect copyright.PENANAtx7NGMMPIz
also tear them apart. At first, most things were bought and sold as decorum, but as100Please respect copyright.PENANA60bFLk6JG3
time went on and the races kept evolving and learning from these finds, their value and100Please respect copyright.PENANAP1asq4ToK7
their importance kept increasing.100Please respect copyright.PENANA638DxidD4I
From the study and learning of these Centra finds, most races began evolving,100Please respect copyright.PENANANY3xJLkxXc
building, finding cures for the sick and easier ways to withstand the cold storms.100Please respect copyright.PENANAgl8WQB4png
It became obvious to all that this was their future, that the finding of more and more100Please respect copyright.PENANA2TFKOA7qG3
Centra technology, or anything concerning it, was their new path.
