The Modern Revelation

History
The Iron Age of Man lasted from before recorded time until about 1000 P.R. After this Iron Age, man entered the Dark Age. The Dark Age was a time of decline for mankind, where all society and culture was slowly fading from the world. By 200 P.R, it was clear that humanity was going extinct. In 0 P.R, the Year of the Revelation, The gods decided to intervene and save man from extinction. Grizal, the god of machines, stepped down from the heavens to give over technology to man. The Sun God, Aldos, also gave humanity Divine Magic. This led to the development of the Golden Age of Man, which was defined by steam power, the creation and exploration of divine magical arts, the unification of Daegyn under the Empire, and a renaissance of culture, society, art, medicine, and technology. This Golden Age would end after The Fall of Machines.

Religion
The Modern Revelation has sparked a great deal of curiosity, and even obsession, within the religious world. A large number of religions, sects and cults study the Modern Revelation, and treat it as the pinnacle of human relations with the gods. Most notably, The Enlightened Children of the Modern Revelation was the group of worshipers whom the gods originally gave technology over to, and they now seek to bring about a new revelation.
