What confuses me - and I am sorry if this has already been dicussed - how old is Baldur's Gate? The Emperor says it got changed into a Mindflayer at Moonrise, presumably meaning the Tower and not the general location. We know the tower is a hundred years old, it was built for Ketheric when he was on the brink of god-flipping for the first time, the Mindflayer colony, the Emperor mentions, must have moved in afterwards, when the region was hidden by the curse .... so is Baldur's Gate really that young?
