The Dialogues was a famous historical work by Eddison, referenced in the later Domia abr Wyrda by Heslant the Monk. Eddison attributed the stability of Alagaësia after Du Fyrn Skulblaka to the presence of the Riders and was also of the opinion that the Palancar Crisis was caused by Palancar himself being delusional, something Eddison attributed to the early onset of dementia.
