Years = until Kallyr's rebellion. This post suddenly made that clear to me, that rebellion was really the point where the clans started saying "Gaw, we can't ignore these buggers! Bad enough paying them taxes, but they are getting into everything--worse than trollkin! Its gone on long enough, what say we get rid them then?" Oh sure, amongst the leadership it might have been viewed differently than that, but that was probably that critical point needed for popular support.
