Jadnor lay somewhere on the Solkathi Sea southeast of the Vent, as far as I know. Lylket lay about a quarter the distance from Karse to Nochet, directly below Shadow Plateau (that's the reason the trolls knew about those handy tunnels to end that siege so quickly).
In a game of mine, the mundane part of a (semi-Short) Lightbringers' Quest performed by the (now late) King of Heortland during Sacred Time 1616 (observed and supported by PCs) involved a raft made of "scales" (shields) pushed over the Mirrorsea Bay by newtling subjects of Heortland (no giant turtles available). The Quester made its descent to Hell there in the ruins, into these very tunnels. (After all, "Alone in Hell" does take place in the basement of Obsidian Palace...)
Needless to say, the quest didn't work well, and the hoped for support/recall for the Pharaoh('s spirit) failed abysmally.
Somehow, the library of Lylket seems to have survived the assault of 907, although it probably translocated somewhere else, since there are documents in the Jonstown Compendium (from Troll Gods) which date to the early Third Age. My guess would be that it was moved to Old Karse (on the west bank of the Creekstream River then still unblocked by the Lead Hills).
Maybe the Raiders included a regiment of sword sages eager to plunder? ;-)
No idea about Aerinthanx.
