| The "Roll of Ages" is the double-entendre used by scholars to refer to the world as it is known, highlighting the cyclical nature of its history, lateral circumnavigability, and immense age. Thus, the "Roll of Ages" is used both to refer to the physical "world" beneath your feet, as well as the world in terms of history and time. An old farmer might lament, "Never in the Roll of Ages have things been so bad…", while an explorer might describe a newly-discovered species of plant as "Unlike anything I've seen elsewhere on the Roll!". | The "Roll of Ages" is the double-entendre used by scholars to refer to the world as it is known, highlighting the cyclical nature of its history, lateral circumnavigability, and immense age.

| The name itself stems from the popular belief that the Roll of Ages is fundamentally defined by a cyclical series of "Ages", each one lasting somewhere between five and fifteen thousand years. The current age is the Age of Fire and Light, synonymous with the reign of Immotian the Over-God, and has been running for a little over fifteen thousand years. It is rumored that there exists a physical ledger - also called the Roll of Ages - which catalogues ages both past and to come, though if it does exist, it is not apparent if even Immotian and his Overgods know of its location. | The name itself stems from the popular belief that the Roll of Ages is fundamentally defined by a cyclical series of "Ages", each one lasting somewhere between five and fifteen thousand years. The current age is the Age of Fate, synonymous with the reign of the North Star, a powerful Over-God, and has been running for a little over 13 thousand years. It is rumored that there exists a physical ledger - also called the Roll of Ages - which catalogues ages both past and to come, though if it does exist, it is not apparent if even the North Star or his fellow Overgods know of its location. |
