My version is a as valid as the official.A more realistic example. What if one of my players, though gameplay, becomes the Lord Mayor of Neverwinter? Does my game no longer remain valid because in everyone else knows Neverember is really the mayor? What if the villain's plot works and Silverymoon is reduced to a crater? Is my game no longer official? What about if a violent plague wipes out every dragonborn in Faerun? Still official? Are you going to sit there and argue "but the books say Neverember is mayor, Silverymoon exists, and dragonborn aren't extinct. You're playing wrong?"That's what I'm arguing about. My interpretation of the Realms is still ac valid interpretation. So is yours. You can even use interplanar shenanigans to travel from yours to mine if you want. Mine doesn't stop being valid because it deviates from the book. Hell, Ed Greenwood's Faerun deviates from the book. You going to tell him his version of the Realms isn't valid?</blockquote>
