But the timeline is also here: http://angantyr.no-ip.org/~angantyr/kaos/timeline.htmlAh, thanks for the link. I was sure I wasn't dreaming things!However, according to War of the Wizards Section 1: "Though it seems to youbut a short time since you arrived at the Daziarn, seven years have passedhere in the material world." That makes the year of Shasarak's demise MS5057at least. 5054 is therefore an impossibility; maybe alter this to MS5057?As you can see in that timeline there's lots of problems with Grey Star-related events....Hmm. :-\Is there anything you can think of that we'd break by altering this text from 5054 -> 5057?
The issue I have with the events of the first 2 GS books taking place in MS5050 is that GS encounters Madin Rendalim in 01gstw while the latter is looking for a cure for the Red Death. LW encounters Rendalim in 02fotw, which takes place sometime in spring of MS5050. So even if 01gstw takes place in mid-winter (which is when we've determined the calendar ticks over), is it realistic to assume that Rendalim could get back to Durenor, cure the Red Death, and be in Hammerdal waiting for LW's arrival in a matter of a few months?
