I love Talislanta and after seeing the race roster, I kinda want to run this as a campaign. (Or publish an adventure for it, though I wonder how many people would actually buy it.)
From what I'm reading, they didn't specify which "Dark Ages" they were emulating, leaving it up to the reader to identify it with the dark ages experienced by their own cultures.
And even if they did mean it in the European sense, the 5th and 6th centuries were pretty garbage worldwide, at least until the reunification of a previously divided and warring China under the Sui Dynasty in 581. Even the most stable political entities during that period, Sassanid Persia and the Eastern Roman Empire, had a pretty bad time of it, incessesantly warring against each other (culminating in the great war of 602 - 628 which mutually wrecked both empires) while simultaneously dealing with incursions from the steppes by the Avars, Hephthalites, Turks, and so on...

No magic casting? Hmmm.... Tough sell.
