Lana Mokos gave a subtle nod in affirmation.
From the side, Ethan chimed in, "Sir, from the knowledge I’ve gathered, many powerful kingdoms once graced our past. Yet, they perished one after the other, for myriad reasons, leaving not even written records in their wake."
"What we understand of our history now," he continued, "is pieced together from the remnants of forsaken relics."

The ancient beings named it the ’Primordial Stone’, and the Dragon carrying it was called the ’Time Dragon’, possessing the ability to manipulate time itself."
"In those days, the concept of kingdoms had yet to form. Instead, the world was dotted with powerful tribes."
"Among them, Dragons were the most formidable, leading to this initial age being christened as the ’Dragon Era’."
