LinkedIn Pinpoint Answer 862

I started with the clue Iron, and my brain went straight to thinking about different types of metals, but then I realized it was probably about something more specific, an era perhaps.

Next, I saw Golden, and I thought it was about awards or achievements, but it seemed too vague.

Then I got to Middle, and that's when things started to click. I remembered studying about different ages in history, but I still wasn't sure what connected them all.

The clue Voting threw me off a bit, as it seemed more related to politics than history, but then I realized it was also about a specific age.

It wasn't until I saw Coming of that it all came together. I realized that all these words were coming before 'age' to describe a specific period or stage.

And then it hit me - the category was 'Words that come before “age”'! I couldn't believe I didn't see it sooner.

Looking back, the connection between all these words seems so obvious, but it just goes to show how sometimes you need to see all the pieces before the puzzle becomes clear.
