: My theory, such as it is: After the passes fell, the
: Province was overwhelmed, caught off guard and
: suffering accordingly. If I recall the numbers right,
: Convenant fell twelve years ago (as of the 17th year
: of the war), the Giants haven't been seen for thirteen
: (as of the Forest Heart journal entry). Can't have
: taken that long for Tyr to fall, assuming the Fallen
: took the southern parts of the Province (Scales and
: such) before marching on Covenant.
: Seraph
Scales was still in light hands, during Force Ten from Stoneheim.
Methinks no-one knew what was going on...
The Cath Bruig took 100 years to fall, the Province hadn't fell to the Cath Bruig so 17 years isn't too much of a leap.
