10,000–5,000 BCE: Prehistory and Hidden Epochs
This is the span many mundane historians deem "prehistory." To the Awakened, it is the time of hidden empires—Atlantis, Mu, the City of the Pyramids. Verbena, Choristers, and Akashics claim to hold fragments of knowledge from this forgotten world. The Zi Guang awaken in Southeast Asia, learning to influence chi in rice plants and beginning a tradition of ecological magick that reshapes agriculture across the East.
