Problems of the Seleran Wars

Progress of the Seleran Wars in Peloria
The outline of the Seleran Wars in Peloria is unsatisfactory from a narrative point of view in both our major sources - the Redline History and Reign of the Son of the Red Goddess.


 * Sheng Seleris has been active in Pent since 1355 ST. The Lunars would have been aware of what was happening, especially since a great horde was drawing off warriors to invade Kralorela, and his generals were invading Teshnos, Wastelands and the Kingdom of Ignorance since 1363 ST.


 * The Seleran Army makes its way as far as the City of Yuthuppa before a major battle occurs in 1376 ST. No mention is made of battles in Rinliddi even though Torang lies over 75 miles from Yuthuppa.  It isn't the case that other battles are ignored here for immediately after the battle, the Lunar Empire raises two more armies, one from Sylila, both of which are destroyed.  Since Rinliddi was the home of the goddess, the laxity in defending it looks strange.


 * After the destruction of the armies, the Lunar Empire concentrates its efforts on attacking the river people, which apparently takes 12 years until 1387 ST. Why didn't the Selerans interfere?
