: -500 years before Sword age.Balor appears in the east.
: he gets some fallen lords. i dont remeber how and when.
It doesn't talk about how he recruits, except that he frees The Watcher from his prison.
: -300 years from the siege of madrigal. the Myrmidion
: bertay the light.
: i think that it is about now Balor stars the large scale
: attack, at his time he have already sacked Gower, and
: the he have properly also attacked the eastern borders
: of cath bruig.
: -Cath bruig and the west aint best friend
: evidence that indicates that: 1. to different cultures,
: were one of them are a large empire, and he others are
: city states ussualy dont like each other. they had
: alot of trade but they didn't love each other
: 2. another evidence. the west didn't support Cath Bruig
: with a large scale army.
The West didn't really have a large-scale army. From the point of view of the Province, the Cath Bruig was so huge and powerful that they'd either win without help from the Province, or they'd lose and the Province couldn't change that.
: 3. i like the idea that there have been a war once.
: 4. thay have different religions i think. the Avartara
: were most of them are educated in Muithemne or
: Covenant ( wich a think have been a Cath bruig
: dominated area), belive in the same thing, the
: preserver and leveller thing.
: but we know that an ordinary man ( the narrator, dont
: know anything about the cycle, the mad journeyman from
: Cathb ruog belived it, but the people of the west dont
: know a thing about it.
We don't know that ordinary men anywhere believed it. Some Avatara and some Heron Guards happen to have found out, thanks to their long lives and magical means of gathering information (actually, it's possible that *no one* other than the Fallen Lords and the Trow knew about it, until Alric informed the Journeymen), but we have no evidence that the commoners of the Cath Bruig knew. In fact, it's more likely that they didn't know; otherwise they would have cut off Connacht's head or something when the time came for him to turn bad, or at least prepared for a Dark attack.
: 3. they have the same religion.
: some people means that they all belives in the preserver
: thing.
It's important to distinguish between worshipping the gods and knowing exactly what they're up to. You can worship Wyrd and/or Nyx without knowing that there's another god, the Leveller and that he's crushing civilization every thousand years.
