10,000 Years	comment	...can give ya such a crick in the neck! Creators will sometimes try to make it sound like something is positively ancient by stating that it is ten thousand years old. One common example is the supposed sinking of Atlantis. Many cultures have a distinct word for ten thousand that is often used to refer to any indefinite large number — in English, for example, it's "myriad". Currently, the development of agriculture is estimated as having occurred ten thousand years ago. And the earliest example of print is much younger than 8,000 BC. Compare Thousand-Year Reign. May be a case of Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale, particularly when used to suggest a Time Abyss.

10,000 Years / int_21e4a8a2	comment	A prophecy is made by Hari Seldon that after the Galactic Empire collapses into chaos, said chaos would last for thirty thousand years before another Galactic Empire took control, longer than the duration of the ancient first Empire. It is in an effort to avert this extremely long anarchy that he establishes his 1,000 year plan.

The Sheikah tribe developed advanced Magitek that proved useful in the battle against Ganon. But the other people of Hyrule feared that the Sheikah might turn against them with that same technology and thus forbade them from continuing to use it.

This also became an important date for many related characters, including the entire night elven race (who were immortal and have been alive since then). Illidan Stormrage's time spent since the War of the Ancients was a little bit different and defines his character, as he had been imprisoned in a lightless prison since then.

10,000 Years / int_6a8ce345	comment	Avatar: Avatar: The Last Airbender: The number ten thousand is used in many different contexts as a stand-in for the infinite. For example, Wan Shi Tong, the guardian of the Spirit Library, describes himself as "he who knows ten thousand things" (which is, in fact, the translation of his name). In the sequel series, The Legend of Korra, Harmonic Convergence is an event that occurs once every ten thousand years. During this the spirit of light Raava and the spirit of darkness Vaatu battle to decide whether the next ten thousand years will be those of light or those of darkness. Vaatu also claims Harmonic Convergence is something they've experienced at least ten thousand times. Several times, especially while in the Avatar State, the Avatar has claimed to have lived "ten thousand lifetimes." Since the Avatar has only existed since the last Harmonic Convergence, that means that someone is being metaphorical somewhere. Fans generally assume that the ten thousand years between each Harmonic Convergence is accurate, which would mean that the Avatar has lived somewhere in the neighborhood of a hundred lives. Word of God has been silent on the subject.
