I went here http://kingsquest.wikia.com/wiki/Official_King%27s_Quest_Timeline and noticed some Interesting Facts.

The Mask of Eternity happened a few Years by the time Graham is a Very Old Man, so there is No possible way Connor or the MoE can be in TSL :o

Could Valanice be Dead and could Rosella be in her 40's when it was said somewhere that Connor took an Interest in her.  :-\

Is TSL following that Timeline.  ???

We are not following that timeline. In our timeline, MoE happened approx. a year before TSL--so, shortly after KQ7.

It could be that same timeline;

27 GC
Graham turns 47 years old.
Valanice and Rosella travel to eldritch shortly before Rosella's 20th birthday (KQ7).

Between 25 and 27 GC
King's Questions

After 27 GC
Connor saves Daventry (MoE)


TSL would be placed in time 28 years after KQ1 (and so about 1 year after KQ7) so if MoE happend in that one year it is according to that timeline. (and King Graham is old!  ;))

Here you can see how Old Graham is, since KQ2VGA keeps the Tradition of MoE.

If there was a KQ9, no mention of Connor would be in TSL.

I talked to Mark Seibert, they intended MOE occurs within a few years of KQ7  (or at least he thinks in retrospect) . So less than a decade. He's not that much older than he was in KQ7, KQ7 is between same year to 3 years after KQ6. However apparently Roberta at the time considered him too old to go on adventures, and Alexander was too busy in the Land of the Green Isles, that's one on the reasons why she chose to create a new character, Connor (see talkspot interviews, from 1998). But Graham's really not that much older than he was in the previous games.

Few by definition means more than one, but that's about all you can get from it. It could have been 2-3 years for all we know, its definitely less than a decade. He's older, not ancient.

QuoteIt could be that same timeline;

The timelines don't actually match up for some very important reasons, check out this conversion of the old The Silver Lining Timeline;

http://kingsquest.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:The_Silver_Lining_Timeline (converted version)

Where I converted the dates over the Graham's Corronation format, so that you can see where they differ.

http://kingsquest.wikia.com/wiki/The_Silver_Lining_Timeline (the POS version)
The version from the old website, its apparently being edited, and will be released later, after more episodes have been released. It contains apparently contains "spoilers".

There is a handy section at the end of the article that explains several of the differences.

Here is TSL's timeline

Well, ya, King's Quest is on Earth. Daventry is very old city from a long time ago. It's in ruins now and people aren't quite sure exactly where it used to be. There are some archaeologists searching through the ruins, they think they know its Daventry. But its somewhere on Earth."-Roberta Williams http://kingsquest.wikia.com/wiki/File:Daventryisearth.ogg
