## Appendix

### Notes

1. ↑ The year is deduced from the date for the prequel, *Into the Void*, being given as **1361 DR** in the "Presenting . . . Seven Millennia of Realms Fiction" article from Wizards of the Coast, (also published in *Dragon* #196); the fact that *Into the Void* describes its entire story taking place in little more than 78 days, (See pp. 168, 172, 184, and 206); and p. 7 of *The Maelstrom's Eye*, which claims that Teldin had left his home of Krynn "just half a year ago". At the very latest, if *Into the Void* ended in Nightal of 1361, the last month of the year, *The Maelstrom's Eye* could thus not begin any later than the first few months of 1362 DR. The events of *The Maelstrom's Eye* are completed within a few months. (See pp. 89 and 166.)
