I was generating a new world. Something caught my eye above the Year counter.
The Second Age of Myth?

I thought the Age of Myth ended when a certain percentage of megabeasts were dead, starting the Age of Legends. So what happened here? Did they just come back to life?

[kotekzot]

I believe there's an explanation on the wiki.

[BodyGripper]

I've never seen this before.     I'm interested.

Maybe some of the remaining semimegabeasts decided to party like it was '99 and then nine months later the age changed again?

Or perhaps night creatures and their consorts count towards the age, so a few converts later and it was the age of myth again?

[Lagslayer]

Maybe some megabeasts got together and had babies? Maybe some dragon families out there. If there are, then you need to either capture them or destroy them.

Age of legends is more interesting. I would have expected, you know, more legends in it.

I got fifth age of myth in a previous world, and it was created by a Roc egg hatching or something for each age.

I'm giving a prize to whoever manages to raise a world into The Age of Myth from The Age of Emptiness.

Doing so would entail breeding megabeasts, which can't be done without modding.

Even worse, I believe that in order for the age of emptiness to be achieved all megabeasts need to be dead, so there's no breeding stock left. Not sure if the game will spawn megabeasts for dwarf mode, or if they will stop showing up once the world's quota is killed off.

Either way, in order to breed megabeasts you need to remove the [MEGABEAST] tag, I think, meaning that breeding them wouldn't cause the age to change. If you can breed them without changing the tag, and dwarf mode creates some rocs out of thin air, you can breed them normally and this could be done.

EDIT: That said, I may have thought of a way. Send me an Age of Emptiness world, and I accept the challenge.

Idea:
1.  Kill all living creatures that aren't megabeasts.
2.  Start a fort.  Lure every megabeast onto your map, and trap them there.
3.  Kill them all.
4.  Age of Emptiness?
5.  Runesmith them all back to life.  (You can do that, right?  I haven't used it in a while.)

I'm guessing this plan is very flawed, particularly around steps 1 and 4, but maybe someone can improve it.

Problem is, that's still cheating.
