I got this information from the compendium but I'm not sure how accurate it is since young Nice is seen in the latest series along with Spark, Pan, and the rest of the gang.  If my information is accurate then everything that takes place during the Heroic knight Quest is 15 years after the War of Heroes in which King faun of Valice and Emperor Beld of Marmo died.
