@Galeah That's pretty much right, however I don't think we have anything official regarding how long it was between the previous lord dying and Lilith coming to the throne. That the chief god had to empower a new hero to oppose her suggests it was at least long enough for the previous hero to have died of old age (and powerful humans even back then tended to live longer than normal humans). Heck, it could well have taken centuries for Lilith to gather enough allies and consolidate her position, especially since unlike most other monsters she avoided killing her rivals. Even when monsters did nothing but kill each other for the throne it still took so long that human populations were able to recover, that was an integral part of the cycle.
