I mentioned in my first answer that we switch to “new areas and new characters” every few years. But we play in the same campaign world, and often go back to the same general places, a few years later. Right now I’m working on moving forward 5 years in my favorite kingdom, where a new ruler has just inherited after a war. Pcs in that world have established that kingdom, overthrown one ruler, placed another on the throne, fought in a war, saved a Pprince from doom, etc... Current plans on my side include the new Ruler being an ancient evil lich magic jarred into the true Prince’s body. Who knows if the PCs will want to mess with that, but it will put a darker, more evil tone into the power structure than in the past. We shall see!
