Talk:Abeir-Toril

Wonderful, parts of a lost world called Abeir are transplanted onto Toril? ➳  Quin 20:14, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

That's the 4th Ed. version of the story, yes. In 3rd edition, there was just Toril. In 1st and 2nd, there was just Abeir-Toril (and this post-1000 DR: long after the supposed -30k DR sundering of the planet).

This is mostly just a way to explain the practical absence of everything but the continent of Faerûn in 3rd edition by literally getting rid of parts of it they abandoned pre-3e, and to remould the setting to fit 4th edition's vastly altered design, even though it required retconning large sections of the canon at that point.
