    This is also why periods of Peace in history where everything is stable are called Astral Eras, while periods of chaos and rapid change are called Umbral Eras.

    So no, that is not a typo.
    No, Umbral is stasis, which is Light.

    Astral is creation and Darkness.

    This is stated... in the MSQ, in Il Mheg...

    I don't think you were paying close enough attention.
    There's a reason why Shadowbringers has turned our understanding of Astral/Umbral on its head, why we now realise that the naming of Astral/Umbral era's is a misnomer.
