I will mostly refer to the Runic timeline in this journal.
Runic timeline by Gotagetoing
The Sinuit faith worshipping Sinus argues that the retreat of the Dark and the beginning of the Dark Age rather occurred several thousand years ago. With the Dark Age referred to as the Unprincipled Age, a time where humanity faced an age of calamity as their gods had succumbed one after another. Followers of Rune no longer heard their gods calling. Sinus had gone silent and no longer answered the prayers of his followers. Sinus faithful would during the Green Age be facing violent opposition from the Runic branch. And would with the rule of Helena "Tyrelis" Emporium be ousted from Tyrelia and most of the Rilian Empire. Only during the Third Age and the fall of the Rilians would the Sinuit branch regain a foothold in Rune's Eris once again.

The Dark Age refers to the years after the clash between Sinus and Rune. Where Aurgelmer the giant roamed the ruins of Eris and when the Marked Man and Mhesekai established a fabled kingdom in the north. Clergy of the Runic faith strongly believe that the Dark retreated north two thousand years ago. Whilst the Sinuit clergy of Icelord Keep argue that time has passed much further, many thousand years. Stating that the age without gods set humanity on a path in which it would not recover from until the ninth millennia. Sinuit clergy also deem the Descendant kingdom of "Mhesekai" to have mended and aided humanity in their path to establish their own civilization on the continent. Mhesekaia is therefore widely recognized among Sinus followers as a wholly real title that has a place in history.

The three entire millenniums spanning the First, Second, and Third Age are all considered to take place during the Green Age. A period where erosion in today's Green Fields, possibly caused by the carcass of one peculiar giant, as well as other regions allowed human populations to have a surplus of food and supplies, allowing them to colonize and subsequently dominate the rest of the Runic continent.

Eris prior to the Green Age was still recovering from the clashes between Rune and Sinus. With swats of land still covered in ash and ice. Imperial dragons still roamed the bleak skies of the world, beings supposedly forged by Mhédé, the second god-child. Mhédé is not recognized by the Runic clergy however. But a deity referred to as Gharakkiajj by Ladusian elites, the pantheon known for creating avian life may very well be Mhédé. And is among Sinuit faithful widely acknowledged as the sole creator of the mythical fire breathing beasts. Much like the giants would Mhédé's dragons be hunted until their retreat from Rune's Eris, flying to the Far-East to scour Lhea's ruined domain following her destruction. An endeavor which would last until most dragons degenerated into stone, and Mhédé succumbing in an unknown fashion much like Lhea.
