The issue is that you need to know what these basic concepts are in depth because they're the foundation of the world itself and the main story and if you don't know that TDs mimic everything, not just people, it makes how they appear confusing at best. The actual threat to people is that TDs want their frequencies but I don't recall this being stated anywhere but the loading screen and I think that one side quest tied to the radar dishes?
Tacet Fields can appear anywhere which is why the shields are around, but I believe Chixia or Jinhsi mention this in an offhand comment somewhere around chapter 3 or 5 to explain why they don't have them popping up in their city.
Retroact Rain only gets covered in a specific side quest until you reach chapter 5 if I remember right but I believe they briefly explained it there because that's how they know the Threnodian has awakened.
The Lament is mentioned regularly as a thing that happened but I don't recall them even explaining it until I think the Scar discussion with Jinhsi in chapter 4 outside of the loading screen.
Overall, the issue here is that they regularly name drop stuff and then go on as if you know in-depth about what that is when you've just barely absorbed what they've even talking about, and they've introduced you to ten different concepts about the world in less than five minutes.
Imagine if you started off an Elder Scrolls game and someone ran up to you and went "The Daedra have used their Oblivion Gates to attack us. We must get the Elder Scrolls to hiding. The infighting between the Redguards and the Argonians has given us enough time to escape to the Imperial City. Praise Sithis." and then five seconds later they go "Daedra are dudes that come out of these portals, Reguards live in this part of the country, Argonians live here, the Elder Scrolls are powerful, and Sitihis is my homie". Yeah, it's been "explained", but it doesn't help you here.
