Greetings All,

@ Perentie

I'm not so much attatched to the idea that the MGE's Druella is thousands of years old. More so towards the idea that MGE as a setting allows for creative freedom with its narrative structure. So putting arbitrary time limits on anything is both pointless and stifling.

Personally I would like to think that KC leaves gaps in his work intentionally (because he does leave a fair few such as the dates and times among others) in order to allow the reader a creative expanse as it were to form their own ideas.

In regards to ignoring the rest of your post that was not intentional. It seems the rest of my post didn't transfer from the Word doc when I copied it. Suffice to say I still don't consider non book material canon. That's just my view. But if I had to weigh in on that the quote is

'''It's not easy for her in particular. It's just that she already had at least 1000 years time to make out and have sex. '''

The operative wording there being  at least 1000 years  which in my mind says there is the possibility that her rule has gone on for much longer than that. 1000 is just the minimum amount of time.

As for World Guide 1 Vs World Guide 2 as you pointed out the second retcons the first as being very hyperbolic so I would once again say there is a wide berth of space for interpretation.

Therefore I choose to interpret the time as being open to degrees because of the hyperbole and I think that the whole thing can indeed take place over many thousands of years.

Or not, that's the thing it's subjective that's why interpretation is interprative. We all see and understand things differently.

So please feel free to disagree with me and my interpretation of events by all means. This is just how I see things in the MGE setting. Besides it tends to get a good natured debate going. And I've rather enjoyed debating the points back and forth that's part of the fun.

Well I've let this one carry on a tad longer than intended so I'll end it there. If you want to debate more of the setting in future drop a note on by.

Cheers,

The Weary TimeLord.
