Widening this question a bit - is there an official and canonical, or even a fan-made and best-guess, timeline that correlates events across Cosmere works?

I know Warbreaker happens before Way of Kings, but have always wondered about Nazh/Khriss being on Scadrial around the time of Ruin's release at the Well of Ascension (per Mistborn: Secret History), yet also there for Khriss to dance with Wax in Era 2, and for Nazh to make sketches of Bridge Four's tattoos and fetch Shallan's lost sketches from when the boat sank at the start of Words of Radiance. Demoux and Galladon being at the Purelake certainly raise questions about this as well.

Brandon has mentioned that most of the Seventeenth Shard uses a particular (unspecified) method to extend their lifespan.

QUESTION

Did Demoux achieve immortality by manipulating his Connection age?

BRANDON SANDERSON

Demoux uses the same method as most of the Seventeenth Shard. That method slows aging by a lot, but doesn't stop it completely.

Seeing that one of the Shard's members is Baon and Khriss works with them, it's a fair bet that she uses the same method herself, though given her depth of knowledge she might know of and have access to other ways as well. In any case, she and Nazh are capable of living longer than a normal human lifespan.

Hmm. I'm guessing one may not physically age while in the Cognitive Realm, since it's not Physical.

I've tried to reconstruct the passage of events several times before as well. it's not nice when each planet uses a different year. These were the culmination of several disparate ones, and might have some things you are looking for.

@FiveLate Did you create that or is it somewhere on the coppermind?

Not sure where I picked it up.....it says I uploaded it to onedrive December 2016....

Considering all the links in it are in-site links to Coppermind articles, I'd say he got it from the Coppermind.

I even found what page he got it from too(not that that page properly exists anymore. "Chronology," before it became a redirect to the "chronological order" subsection of the Cosmere page. Perusing the Edit History of pages is far more useful than one would think.
