My suggestion would be to wait for the Falador event and associated content, and see how that builds on the foundation of History of the Kinshra. Then you'll know what's canon and can review your new text accordingly.


Personally I'm well on board with Respectable Nobleman Valzin, where the order went downhill almost immediately after his death with the torch passing to Shadwell. Though whatever the future holds for the black knights, having a bit of lore on when the schism happened between Daquarius's knights and the fortress north of Falador would be interesting.
Headcanon Haven, where everything is made up and the points don't matter.

RuneScape's a difficult net to break free from; I'm hyped for Menaphos and find myself being drawn back in to an increasing degree. (Though that's kind of been the case for months now...)

I think it's about time to get back to this. I still have hopes for at least correcting some of the lore discrepancies, before The Death of Chivalry 2 rolls around (whenever that may be).

And on a possibly related side note... Have any of you played Amnesia: The Dark Descent?
The Asgarnian ale must flow.

Yes. Also, you are... someone whose name I can't remember.

Edit: 60 seconds of research has revealed that you are Kittyphantom! Right?
Patrolling Lore FC almost makes you wish for a Great Revision.

Necroing this dead thread becuase it came up during a research session I'm doing for a big thread on Asgarnia in the 5th age.

Specifically, I'm confused about the status of the Kinshra from years 70-164. I distinctly remember that the White Knights removed all political power from the Kinshra in 162 when Vallance "fell ill", which led to the siege of falador in 164.

But the History of the Kinshra book informs us that the political fall of the kinshra was in the 70th year, right after the wizards tower was burned. And we have numerous instances of the Kinshra raiding Asgarnian villages in between those dates.

So there's an unanswered question regarding the status of the Kinshra within Asgarnia prior to 162. The history book leaves us at a time where the Kinshra openly reject King Raddalin's legitimacy, but don't declare open war. But they must've moved back into the fold somewhat in the near hundred years after that point, otherwise their expulsion in 164 wouldn't mean anything, let alone be the cause of the Kinshra's attack on falador. But then it's baffling that the History of the Kinshra leaves out everything after the year 70.
