The Sharlayan colony west of Dravania was abandoned 20 years ago after the fall of Ala Mhigo and peace negotiations between Sharlayan and Garlemald failed.
I thought I remembered that being the case. That's why reference to "ancient" Sharlayan ruins confuses me. I don't know when the colony was founded, but if it was only abandoned 20 years ago I'd hardly call that ancient. So, either the colony was founded very, very long ago and was riddled with older architecture that was already "ruined" before the Sharlayans decided to abandon it or that wasn't the first Sharlayan colony and other far older colonies preceded it.
Does that make sense? Is there something I'm missing?
