In Response To: Re: Current State of the Cycle (Rincewind MoG)

: For some reason I find this chart really cool. Another
: possibility is that this IS a Dark age at it's dawn.
: There's not really evidence to support this, but you
: can still make stuff up which fits with what we know:
: maybe some lieutenant of Balor or Soulblighter fled
: after their masters defeat, and now is teaching anyone
: how to create undead so he can afford a mug of grog,
: until pretty soon there are evil overlords coming out
: from everywhere with their own private armies or
: undead. Or maybe those Fallen Lords we never saw or
: heard anything about are still off somewhere,
: gathering strength, learning from Soulblighter's
: errors.

: Ever the optimist, however I believe in A1 or A4

Another possibility:

This is a Dark age. The cycle is still perfectly intact. About 75% of the civilised peoples lie dead following the two wars, all major cities have either been razed to the ground or are Muirthemne, which is currently in the middle of a desert. The Lurker still lurks somewhere, and noone knows where or whether the Faceless Man is. The Ghols still own Stoneheim, and are rapidly learning how to use the highly explosive Dwarven technologies. The secret of how to create undead is out. Bands of Mauls are scattered across the lands following Soulblighter's defeat. The one year's servitude promised by the Trow has elapsed. Myrkrydia are rampaging everywhere. Humanity's Fir'bolg and Forest Giant allies refuse to leave their wooded homeland. All that is necessary now is for someone to kill Alric- perhaps he'll be assassinated by some dissatisfied Province noble. Noone said the Leveller has to survive for it to be a Dark age.

Sorry, but previous theories seemes a little TOO optimistic.
