In the mage's tomes, a river is always mentioned. It runs through the past and future, the mysteries of time float within it, every drop of river water represents a mortal's life, every wave signifies the blooming of an era.
Washed ashore are technique spirits of enormous value, treasures such as the 'Reverse Sun' which can heal severe injuries instantly, the 'Reverse Year' which can revert the elderly to their youthful prime, the 'Fixed Month' maintaining youth temporarily, and the elusive 'Listening Day'...
It is the Flowing Gold River, the terminus of all time.
But for mortals and Silver Mages, the Flowing Gold River is destined to be a wonder found only in fictional works. Although even Two-winged Mages can tread the Time Continent, in any nation, Two-winged Mages are pillars of society, their magic realms are beyond entry, ordinary people can only enjoy the benefits of mage civilization... or suffer its servitude.
