@TourmalineJem It depends on the timeline you're thinking of. The question is: Do we have real evidence that HSS and the Hartfeld Stories happen at the same time? I don't remember any, but feel free to correct me.

About the thing with the skin colour: That's not how genetics works. Kids don't exactly inherit their parents' appearance but the mix their genes. Each gene is built up by two alleles which actually cause one's appearance. As an example: My mother has one allel for blue and one for brown eyes. Since the allel for brown eyes is more dominant, she has brown eyes. My dad has blue eyes, me and my siblings as well. This means we inherited my mother's allele for blue eyes even though visible she has it. This example doesn't seem very spectacular, but this way, it's even possible that two white people have a black child or the other way around if both of them have the fitting alleles. I know, a little complicated, but you'll learn it at school.

Just some of my thoughts. And your comment wasn't offending. You just gave your opinion and that's good.
