Good point. It's a very vague term.

I take it you're talking about Denseros here? Yes, for most of the history he was writing, he *did* talk to outsiders. He certaily didn't give eyewitness accounts for very much of it.
But how about Minaryth Blue, and "events of my life"? Who in that year, noticed his son dying of heat, and nothing else worth mentioning?
This may be heading Digest-wards, though. Yes, it's possible to find excuses for much of this (Denseros was biased, Min Blue suffered traumatic memory failure...) but it's a stretch. And it shouldn't be us having to provide the explanations.
