It's shown in the first book that the series is set during Lief's reign. When Britta meets Jewel, she recalls a classmate telling her snobby teacher (after the teacher had described the people of Broome in a mean way) that the captain of the guard (Barda) married a woman of Broome and he was very well-respected for having helped the king and queen end the Shadow Lord's reign.
