[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 3743603, member: 18182"] I think you're all reading waaaaay to much into this prologue and epilogue to "The Orc King". We know that the "Spellplague" is going to be the next RSE (Realms Shaking Event) from other 4e tidbits. Moving the setting forward 100 years is by no means a given from what the OP posted, but is a logical type of change for the setting with a new edition. But just because Drizzt mentions the home of his best friends, and doesn't mention other places, means just one thing. Jack Squat. The "points of light" setting is the 4e "core" setting. And it really isn't all that different from the core setting of 3e (sorta-greyhawk) or the current Forgotten Realms. A different focus and tone maybe, but not revolutionary change. I would be very suprised if Wizards "re-imagined" the Realms to the same degree they seem to be "re-imagining" the core D&D setting. [/QUOTE]
