''This strongly suggests she was around when the Dwemer cities were functional - i.e. Before the Dwemer dissapeared in 1E 700. Serana also says "I'd read stories about the Solitude windmill, but I didn't expect it to be that big!"

"From the castle, you used to just be able to see Solitude over the mountains. It's exactly what I imagined."

"They used to call Windhelm, "the City of Kings." In my books, anyway." "I've never seen leaves this color."(in reference to the trees in the Reach.

That, and she mentions having spent most of her youth exploring the castle undercroft.

From her dialog it seems as a child she never left the castle until the day her mother took her to Deepscorn Hollow and sealed her with the Elder Scrolls.

Her lack of knowledge on the Dwemer it most likely a result of her not having any books that mentioned it.
