Anything between 100 and 5000 years, depending on who you ask. Give it a
millenium is about what I say :-)

Actually, from what I've heard, it should be about a month before we start
having horror problems. :)

What normally happens is that when the cycle of mana gets high enough, the
horrors start to appear. Normally the cycle takes atleast 1000 years before the
weak ones appear, and a while longer for it to get strong enough to support the
really big and nasty horrors.

Unfortunately, this time around the Cycle is going WAY TOO FAST. The energy
levels that normally take a few hundred years to come around are here NOW.
What this means is that low level horrors might try to break through.

The elven response to this is the Great Barrier mentioned in Tir Tairngire.

From what I have heard "Harlequins Back" will cover the attempt of "A brave
group of hero's" who are contacted in hopes of stopping the cross-over.

Ummm....I'm sorry for not knowing this, but
what exactly are the Horrors?

I imagine they're some magical beings that are feared (gee, wonder why)
But I'm not sure...If anyone could tell me where you read about
em, I'd appreciate it.
