Spoilers - plus help I don't understand the warriors of darkness storyline

[Anonymoose]

Don't think a length of time between Rejoinings is necessary; the Ascians have done nothing but try and force another one and it's only been 5 years since the last... but I digress.

Personally, I assume it's another correlation/causation thing. Look at what usually happens after a Calamity - a huge amount of people die, the land becomes uninhabitable, and the survivors scatter to the wind with what pitiful knowledge and technology they can steward through the strife. Who is going to cause any noteworthy measure of chaos? And with what? The delay between previous calamities was likely allow enough people to come together with enough resources and enough motivations to actually get the chaos ball rolling again.

Thanks to Louisoix we still have plenty of civilizations, technologies, and peoples ready to rise up and [insert cause here].

No delay necessary.
