That's exactly the explanation I've heard lots of times, and the one I
tend to go along with. For those who've never read Ehran's speech to the
YET, the first sighting of a great dragon marks the beginning of a world,
and the time the last great dragon goes to sleep is the end of one. The
sinking of Thera (Atlantis) also happened at the end of the Fourth World,
and Japanese people spotting Ryumyo was the beginning of the Sixth.
