Its only 30 years = 1 day from the point of view of those outside the dome. Generally if it wasnt the WoL themselves stabilizing the dilation, it would not have been Krile's parents that first crossed, its the first crossers a few Eons ago Source time.

That being said the time dilation is quite a conundrum when it is looked upon in terms of When Alexandria's war happened. Since Otis is in the 450-500 yr old range, that happened all of 16 days ago on the source. If Krile has been here for 20 years and 1 day =30 years... The golden city portal has been around for 219 THOUAND years of Souce time, even if we shift that from 1 day to 3 or 4 days we only shift that into the 50k year range. So we can only assume that time dilation isn't a constant over time. In order for Alexandria to have had its history as recent as Otis asserts it to have been.
That is quite the conundrum. But here's another: if it's the WoL's presence that syncs time, then shouldn't time still be unsynced when Zoraal Ja invades Tuliyollal so that a significant amount of time would have passed in the dome while he was outside? Maybe this could have happened and the story still makes sense, but I'm not sure.
