    In ShB, the Exarch told us the First was coming to a period when time in both shards is flowing about the same speed. He didn't mention it was exactly when we joined, he seemed to know about it before hand.
    In Dawntrail, Sphene tells us time synchronized when the army left the dome.
    Do you remember which part of the MSQ that was? I'd like to go back and read what she said.

    Around the first quests in Heritage Found, when Sphene does some lore dump on us.
    At this timing in this playthrough https://youtu.be/tPbX4x8maDE?t=6461

    Thanks!

    Sphene:
    "As absurd though it may sound, there is no doubt in my mind the events that led to the joining of our lands occured thiry years ago."

    "Which is not to say I understand why our perceptions of the intervening time are so radically different. We only just become aware of the discrepancy, when Zoraal Ja's military base was complete, and we were at last able to venture beyond the barrier."
    G'raha Tia:
    "It's not unlike how time passess differently in the First and the Source—the fluctuating space of the rift between them disrupting temporal equivalence."

    "Perhaps the same holds true here and time flowed faster within the dome."

    "...based on the queen's account, this encampment may have come to serve as a physical bridge between the two planes, after which the dome was forced into the Source's temporal flow."
    So, the construction of the encampment brought them into temporal equivalence. That is strange. Or was it the construction of Vanguard (dungeon shown before this part in the video)? That is where they traveled to the outside from. But Vanguard interfaces with the outside world—part of it is outside the dome. That how we bust in. But how could they build something on the outside without knowing that a lot of time passes inside?

    ...this is why I wish they would stay away from time stuff lol.
