How old is Empress Celene?

The Calling? yeah, that should be all alives warden fate.

I was checking to see how old Anora was and I came up with another anomaly in WoT. It says that Alistair was born in 9:10 Dragon. Also confirmed by WoT2 and that seems about right because that would make him 20 at the beginning of DAO.

Then WoT says that Maric and the Grey Wardens defeated the Architect in 9:14 Dragon. Hold on a minute. Wasn't that when he met Fiona? So Alistair was born 4 years before Maric had his fling with Fiona. Another example of time travel in Thedas? Or that Fiona wasn't his mother. Or that Maric wasn't his father? Or simply proof that the writers of WoT really aren't good with dates.

I think it is more than just a typo when you have a flag for the birth of Alistair and then 3 flags later (on the same page) the one for the Architect and King Maric considering that in the preface we are assured that the book has been "ruthlessly fact checked". That is a pretty glaring anomaly when each of the intervening entries is a date after 9:10. So I've checked the "List of Errata" at the end of WoT2 and they admit the date was wrong in WoT1 and it should have been 9:10.

And there are some peculiarities with dates in WoT2 that they may address if they bring out another book. Most glaringly concerning Keeper Marethari who was said to have taken over the Sabrae clan around 8:82. Except in Dalish Warden origin their father was said to have been the previous keeper of their clan, which would make Warden Mahariel at least 48 years of age at the start of DAO and I really didn't form the impression they were that old. Then you have the conflicting dates in the account of Dorian's history with the events in Alexius' history with the codex for Alexius and what Dorian says in game.

So I'm not over thinking anything. Just expressing as I often do my annoyance with paying out good money for something, being assured of its accuracy and then finding the reality falls somewhat short of this. I don't mind if it is some event in the dim and distant past. That can be explained by inaccuracies in records, fragmented racial memory, etc. When it involves characters were have encountered in game and are closely connected with either the plot, the PC or both, it is disappointing to have this occur.

Celene would probably name an heir before that happened.  Same with Alistair.  Of course, such appointments would have to be ratified.  By the Council of Heralds in Orlais, and the Landsmeet in Ferelden.

So? Celene has no heir? Well, she might be in luck. I talked with my male Inquisitor who isn't seeing anyone. He would be interested in marrying Celene.

I don't think you're her type...

Unless I'm the Inquisitor, which I'm not, why assume me? I might agree with you had you said your Inquisitor isn't her type.

Way to spoil the joke

I cannot believe Celene is only mid-30s Same age as me! She looks much older, mid-40s at the youngest. I also got that impression from the book. Briala I assumed was 20s/30s. Gaspard I would think would be a touch older than his cousin, but I was surprised by how he looked in Inquisition. No way was he past 40!

The developers really need to communicate with each other more lol They ALWAYS have this problem.
