100% correct Kelpie.

For those who may not be aware, Terry confirmed this is the case in more recent interviews, altough it had always been a source of speculation by fans in the past. The next 9 or more books after Straken will deal with this pre-Shannara history beginning with the demise of our world (re: Apocalypse) and the original foundation of the Druid Council, reappearance of the older races etc...

Could be interesting to see how he handles things.
