Something terrible happened to Arolanit at the end of the second age. I think
the local brithini tapped the Land almost dry to fend off a catastrophe such as
Seshnela's Tsunami, creating another catastrophe.
In MRQII the Esvulari were a Dawn Age irreligious people in eastern Seshnela

/// The esvulari had been cut off from mainstream malkionism for a very long
time. They were subjugated by the MSE's splendor. Then the Rebound destroyed the
Empire, leaving them again isolated. No wonder they began again emphasizing
their links to their neighbors ! And there were a lot of opportunities for cross
mariages and alliances over the centuries.
Which I suppose brings me to the question as to how Canon is MRQI & MRQII?
/// Personally I don't care - like you, I take what I like and use it. MRQ was
never cannon, except for Loz' works.
Anyway, basically, nothing is Cannon anymore - there'll be a lot of changes in
the future GtG (Guide to Genertela) !
