How come we have a great deal more lore Narfell than we do Raumathar?

I was looking through a few of the 3rd edition books and they cover the areas but Raumathar seems to be slim in lore as compared to Narfell.

I'm guessing because of George (meant in a thankful way for working on Narfell at all rather than negative for not working on Raumathar) and his Impiltur work, much of which overlaps with bits from Narfell, and so it was important for him to work out what happened in the past in order to determine how the modern era was affected, but Raumathar had comparatively little impact on Impiltur and so hasnt been touched.

Just a guess. I actually found far more interesting bits of lore in the 2e sourcebooks (and 1e if Spellbound counts as 1e). They present interesting and sometimes contradictory bits of information about the ancient empires. I like to try and weave them all together though. Check out George's thread for further excellent lore on Narfell (and a bit of Raumathar).
