Ok, I’m not looking for likes, just thoughts & answers:
So.
After an apocalypse, how long does it take to rebuild society and “modern” structures given:
a) a hidden magic world in which the magic society is largely unaffected,
b) the apocalypse is caused by a surge of magic that harms tech (steam level and earlier still works),
c) magic can be used to replace tech for communications, travel, and such.
Thoughts?
