Your knowledge of "history" is at best inconsistent. What knowledge you possess makes no distinction among religious myth, legend, and fact; all, as far as your character knows, are equally reliable. Dates are recorded not by year numbers, but by the regnal year of the local Baron. (This is the year 12 Godfrey III—the twelfth year of the current Baron's rule.) Thus, there are no timelines or chronicles for you to study ... at least not initially.
