'''''Oldenmyth''''' is a fledgling historical fantasy project, created by [[User:Dawnstar|Dawnstar]], and added to the wiki in 2024. The project will cover various parts of Earth's pre-modern history, with especial focus on the {{W|Early Middle Ages|Dark Ages}}. This history will be approached from a more fantastic, romanticized angle, giving credence to various myths, legends, and magical practices; exploring scarcely-attested topics with the benefit of omniscient narration; and generally opting for the most interesting version of history, rather than the most accurate (although all lore should be firmly grounded in real history). | '''''Oldenmyth''''' is a fledgling historical fantasy project, created by [[User:Dawnstar|Dawnstar]], and added to the wiki in 2024.

==Guidelines== | |||
===Time period=== | |||
The scope of articles may range from the beginning of history to the late medieval period, but no later. If a definitive end date is necessary, then it should be set at 1439 (the year before the invention of the printing press). However, articles should not be written from the perspective of the early 15th century looking back, but should instead offer a neutral, pan-historic view of the topic, with no era reigning as the "present day". | |||
