So, they advance the timeline a further 90 years to give the people of the world some time to gradually rebuild, and bring the campaign 'back' to a feel that is not too dissimilar to the Realms as they currently are, with a touch of "Points of Light", and with significant surface detail changes.I don't think Wizards would really want to fundamentally alter the Realms to make it something it's just not - better to start a new setting than do that. At the same time, they probably don't want to leave it quite the same, because people won't just rebuy all the same stuff.Obviously, just one possibility out of many...</blockquote>
