Just wondering, how many years between pre and post searing?

I am pretty sure it says after the Cut Scene 2 years later. I will try to look it up to verify.

Yep, from Wiki

Quote:
When you accept the offer from Sir Tydus to join the Ascalon Guards and you enter the Ascalon Academy, there is no turning back: After you've accomplished the academy trial fight you see the Searing (the destruction of Ascalon by the Charr) happening in a cut scene and - after a "time warp" - you find yourself in the post-searing Ascalon City ruins, two years later. This is where the real game begins.

Yeah it's 2 years later, it says so right after the cut scene.

An interesting notion...the present day in Tyria and Cantha is somehow three years prior to the present day in Elona (Nightfall manual, page 28).

Is there a story somewhere that addresses the fact that characters can seemingly travel through time?

Some people's computers tend to be so slow that by the time you can actually move any text and/or messages that popped up on first load will have been and gone. Sad but true.

As for an explanation behind the "time travel". No story as of yet, I don't think.
