Who is older between these two?
We know for a fact that three of the four Old Hearts of Pharloom (Nyleth, Khann, and Karmelita) are older than Hornet, having lived in Pharloom since before Silk created Herrah and the other Weavers.
However, things don’t seem to be as certain with the Green Prince. From what we know, Verdania doesn’t seem to have a royal lineage like the one Karmelita presumably comes from, but rather new rulers are chosen at birth after the death of the old one, based on some unspecified special traits.
Based on that, what period of Pharloom’s history was Green Prince and his lover born during?
Based on the cruel nature of his lover’s punishment, I feel like it’s possible that Green Prince ruled Verdania after the Weavers had already fled, and The Citadel fell under the control of corrupt Choirbug elites.
There could be a statement somewhere that I’m just forgetting, where the Green Prince’s lover was taken by the Weavers, but to me it would make sense if Green Prince and Hornet are around the same age, instead of the former being much older than the latter.
