[quote=@BBeast] While the period of Tauga's dictatorship is somewhat ambiguous (Termite can clarify it if necessary), the battle will probably occur approximately one year after the Blinding Purge (at this rate). [/quote] A few months(?) passed between the Blinding Purge and her arrival in Xerxes, and she was in control for about two years(?) (enough to rebuild some infrastructure and get through the famine). The disparity can probably be explained away by saying 'well, turns out that grafting bits of dead god onto a couple of stragglers takes longer than expected' '...and the guy we put in charge of it just so happens to be the skeeviest motherfucker in the entire city.'
