Always save a copy to outbox or whatever.

I sent another one after I got your DM. Let me know.

Actually, just a heads up that I did not receive a DM, so I sent one myself which appeared to succeed but observed that there is also nothing in my sent items. Tried logging in again in both the same browser and incognito. No errors in the dev console or network request failures. I can provide more details to repro if so desired, but from what I see it looks like the DM's are just not being returned, if they are even being stored.

Many thanks!

Hey folks, I'm not sure if the discord is still a thing, but if so I'd be interested in an invite! I am indeed a human and Bakker fan, albeit a quiet one, and I figured that I should probably see about getting an invite while it's still somewhat possible to differentiate person from bot :P. Thank you!

In Your DMs.

We're coming up on those 7 years..
Haha. Unfortunately, a new Bakker publication has never felt farther away.

Perhaps enough time has passed for an another update - is he still writing? :D

Probably depends on where you're from, but seasons in a year can go like this: Winter - Spring - Summer - Fall - Winter. Such as, December would be a winter month, and so would be January and February. So winter is sorta bisected by the New Year, a chunk of it in the previous year, and a chunk in the new.

In your example, say, Achamian arrived at the Mandate School in January 4110 (winter), stayed for a bit, then left for Sumna and arrived there in, say, March 4110 (spring).

The Darkness That Comes Before / Internal chronology error in the first chapters?
« Last post by WarriorPoet on November 02, 2024, 09:12:43 pm »
Hi, everyone.

I'm from Italy and I'm a huge fan of Bakker's masterpiece since the first book was out.

A few days ago, Italian publishing house Mondadori finally released an omnibus containing the entire first trilogy and so I'm re-reading The Prince of Nothing in my native language.

I have a question, a detail I didn't notice during my first reading, twenty years ago: in Chapter 2, in late winter, Year-of-the-Tusk 4110, Achamian returns to the Mandate School in Atyersus and then he's sent to Sumna, trying to understand the target of the incoming crusade.

Chapter 3, starting with Achamian's arrival in the Holy City, is set in the early spring of the same year. As far as I know, Earwa's seasons are similar to ours, so winter should be a year's final season.

How's that possible, then? Shouldn't Chapter 3 be set in 4111? Or Chapters 1 and 2 set in 4109?

Thank you so much for your help.
