When in Divinity timeline does this take place?
Is this still in the age before Divine Divinity? After Divinity 2?

It is set 4 years after Beyond Divinity, so 24 years after Divine Divinity, 58 years before Divinity 2.

So the Divine isn't dead. and the Dragon hunters are out there still... this time line seems a litle wonky, as Talana was the last Dragon knight (not Slane) ... so my old Dragon Knight is still the hero of the over all saga... elves are dead well these vegetables are, because they are before Dragon Commander and those elves are actually much better looking. They need a story brinding all these seemingly lose threads together. So basicly, this game is a prequel to a sequel oy vey.

I don't know when the dragon slayers were formed, or began making serious progress in wiping out dragon knights.
There is a lore book being written for D:OS 2.

So the Divine is...gone but not dead (but people think he is dead). Gotcha.

What about in correlation to D:OS?

That takes place a few hundfred years prior to the original divine divinity. I think after Dragon Commander though.

There are some references to this like a book called "the coming of the divine"

In D:OS Bellegar references his mentor giving the dragon commander a jet pack so D:OS is definitely after Dragon Commander.

D:OS is set 1200 years before Divine Divinity (the events of D:OS lead into the pre-story of DD); Dragon Commander is set 8800 years before D:OS (enough time to explain the disappearance of demon based technology).

Zandalor must be a time traveller or wizards are really immortal! In DD he is a survivor of the Great War of the Seven Races that occured 600 years before DD. Since D:OS takes place 1200 yrs before DD that means he is over 1200 yrs old in DD. It also means we have a possible future game with a great war involving 7 races that can take place 600 yrs before DD and 600 yrs after D:OS. It also means Arhu has been relegated to white cat status by me for the last 1224 yrs! But it is what he wanted.

He is pretty young, with short brown hair in D:OS. And has long white hair and a long white beard in DD2.

I think wizards age very slowly.

No, the Divine is definitely dead* in D:OS 2, and probably has been for four years. The Dragon Slayers might exist, but even if they do, they are a very young organization. Talana was the last 58 years later, so Slane being alive now is fine.

Wizards age very slowly, if at all. Maxos was around for thousands of years (he's still known in the time of Divinity 2), Zandalor, Arhu, and Bellegar have been around for over 1300 years.

When Slane states he is the last of his bloodline he may be referring to being the last lizard dragon knight or last winter dragon and not the very last dragon knight of any type.

58 years more/less later I pulled the Divine's sorry backside out of Hypnoteromachia in Flames of Vengeance and he certainly wasn't dead then. Which means he isn't dead now in DOS 2

Ah but the characters in this game are "godwoken" which probably means one of them will be the new Divine and that is who you pulled out and saved. The Divine started out as a marked one of three marked ones in DD and became the godchosen Divine. Here you are one of four vying for the title.

But Lucian aka the Divine is recued in Flames of Vengence from Hypnoteromachia 58 years after this game and it is Lucian who is said to be dead in Divinity Original Sin 2... His death was faked his son Damian (so is this a prequel to the Dragon Knight sequel lol ) or are all Divines called Lucian, if so, Lohse isn't happy about that... beer time
