I have always seen "Age" and "Epoch" as inexact terms used more for convenience, depending on the speaker, than exact chronological demarcations that everyone agrees upon. I hope Oerth does not inherit a "canon" list of Ages and Epochs tied to particular dates. Such suggests more uniformity in communication, culture and civilization than I like to imagine exists on Oerth.
I despise the Realms "Year of the . . ." as if all time is know and agreed upon by everyone. For me it robs a setting of spontaneity and a greater sense of wonder. It is too scientific, I think. _________________ GVD
