For 500,000 years the world continued on with out magic and it survived and evolved with no magic.
So in other words, no magic anytime in all of recorded history. All the myths and legends were BS?
Not necessarily. In this scenario, some or all of the world's myths & legends
could have originally been eyewitness reports of magic-related critters/events/etc. Of course, after these reports passed through a few thousand generations of people telling people telling people, it's not at all clear how much of the original factual content would have been lost somewhere along the way, or distorted beyond recognition…
