There are still Arkati in Safelster.

I doubt it. Narnarra was the result of a successful LBQ (and a dragon IMO to boot) a few centuries before Castle Blue. If Narnarra is a precursor of Belintar then Arkat is a precursor of both and all three are precursors of Sheng Seleris; which doesn't make much sense to me.

I don't think so. Karsten's quest failed _ergo_ Belintar didn't appear at Castle Blue; I was suggesting that if he had succeeded then he would have brought along Belintar. For this to be true, Belintar would have had to be dead at the time of battle for castle blue. The only big conflict that I can think of is the War Against Silence in Umathela.
Secondly Belintar is hardly a traditionalist and the point of going on the LBQ surely is that the traditions are not enough.
