Revelations from Patch 6.1

MSQ related. Something I did notice on a re-reading of the

Golbez / Four Fiends cutscene. They say they have waited 10,000 years (or thereabouts). Is this the first time we've gotten any kind of approximate confirmation on the timeline post Sundering? If so, it implies Emet, Elidibus, and Lahabrea took 2000 years to establish the Ascians, recover and raise up the shards of the Convocation, set their plan in motion, ultimately culminating in leaving the Thirteenth in its current state.

On a casual thought, this does seem accurate. It seems to take a couple of thousand years (give or take a millennium) to get a society up and dominant enough to cause a Calamity, whether on the shards or the Source. For the Thirteenth, this would also require enough auracite to go around to corrupt the champions of that star. It would take time for the Unsundered to recreate their Convocation, but also some time could be saved due to not knowing about needing to cause a confluence with the Source.

I'd assume Golbez has been waiting ten thousand plus years rounding down, rather than nine thousand plus rounding up.

I do admit I tend to assume a wide margin for estimates, to the point where gaining or losing a thousand years or so in the timeline is inevitable.
