Story issue with Testosterone and Kyrin?

So...I remember what Nexon posted that comic about Pirate's just before they were released. It mentioned that Testenon, Kyrin's father, fought to stop the black magician...so, how would this exactly make sense? Aran was frozen, Athena/Helena is an elf, so she lives for a really long time. But, Testenon seemed to be just an ordinary person. Yet wasn't the Black Mage alive hundreds of years ago in the Maplestory time line? It said in that comic that when Kyrin was child he disappeared, but looking at Kyrin in game see doesn't seem old and she doesn't look like an elf.

Quoted from the Maple's Story! thread: "Athena said, ages past. Long ago, Victoria and Ossyria were once connected. An event, which Athena did not care to elaborate on, caused the two continents to split apart into their current shape. A great hero named Testonen had fought against the Black Magician, a terrible ruler who caused the people of Ossyria to flee to Victoria. Testonen was able to subdue the Black Magician, at least temporarily, and thus granted Victoria Island a period of relative peace."

So...if this is a long time ago in ages past, how could Kyrin still be alive? Can someone explain to me what the is going on? o.o

(If this is meant to be in Maple Q&A, sorry.)
