Periods/Timelines

The Periods are all the timelines in the Hinekure Ta Universe. Each period consists of different mechanics, technology, inhabitants, and locations. While most periods consist of 400 years, though this was an exception to some timelines which consisted of thousands of years.

## First Period

The First Period was the first timeline of the Hinekure Ta Universe, and it is the time where Daiki, who was known as the leader of the Upper-Class Demigods was born. It was also the time where the Diamond Tree was found. Unlike the other periods, it lived until 3,000 years. It was the oldest period to have ever existed, as it was the timeline where the Hinekure Ta was created. After 1,700 years where the Hinekure Ta was created, Daiki was born. People and inhabitants of this period also seemed to wear Heian era clothes. This was also the Period, where Lumi Odayaka, the second strongest Demigod was born, and turned into a Demigod. It was also the time where the Diamond Tree was found.

## Thirteenth Period

This was known as the current Period of the Hinekure Ta, and when the period's end was drawing near, Daiki was finally defeated, alongside the Upper-Class Demigods. It was known for Daiki's defeat, and the end of most of the creatures and clans united by Daiki. It was also known for the prominent use of alchemy, magic, and supernatural abilities, as well as the huge number of genocides, massacres and catastrophes that took place in that Period.

It was also known to be the period where the World Rules were eventually abandoned by many, due to it's harmful nature, and it was known for the discovery of the fiend vessels. It was also well-known for popularizing unique weapons, such as cards, cubes, war fans, glass, flails, gardening tools, and modified knives and swords and for popularizing the practice of sorcery.

Though the Period was still brutal and horrifying, it was less terrifying than the last timelines. However, it was still severely more extreme and crueler than the Fourteenth Period. It was also the time where the existence of fiends, and the Seven Lords was proven. It was also known for popularizing the usage of spell songs, with more humans having the knowledge of singing spell songs, to cast various spells. More humans have taught, and passed down to generations multiple magical techniques, and supernatural abilities.

It was also the time that creatures, known as Grim Reapers, were proven to exist, and thus, humans have used various weapons to kill these creatures who desire to erase humanity from existence. Although still not adapting to modern technology and the modern period due to the medieval clothing, and old fashioned style of living, it has become less old fashioned and newer devices were being invented, exploring a variety of concepts in the machines. It was also the time where the Clocktowers were discovered, and most of the Clocktowers were destroyed when the end of the Thirteenth Period was drawing near. It lasted for 5,000 years, until the New Genesis began, eventually creating the Fourteenth Period.

In the Thirteenth Period, the seven vessels, alongside the four vessels of destruction, were proven to exist. In this Period, tyranny was also common due to the seals and vessels created by the Seven Lords, who desired to kill and extinct humanity. This Period was also known for the creation of corrupted dolls, which contained various souls of people in the past Periods, which meant that the corrupted dolls contained souls. It was also known for the spread of magical and supernatural animals, which different animals contained supernatural abilities.

## Fourteenth Period

The Fourteenth Period, also known as the New Genesis Period, was a timeline adapted to the modern technology, equipment and mechanics. Although the supernatural sources of magic still existed, alongside some of the creatures, with the forest spirits still existing, the situation was not as terrifying as it was in the Thirteenth Period, and the suffering somehow became a lot less extreme, though there were still a lot of suffering.

Inhabitants of this timeline also wore modern clothing, and modern machines or transportation such as cars, trains, and bus. The Fourteenth Period also enhanced the idea of creating academies, to help defeat these remaining creatures. However, due to the defeat and demise of Daiki, alongside the other Upper Class Demigods in the Thirteenth Period, the status of the Upper Class Demigods did not exist anymore, and a group called the Eleven Lords, took the place of the Upper Class Demigods.

Thus, human beings have created numerous weapons to combat and eventually defeat the Eleven Lords, but their efforts were in vain. However, due to the defeat of the Upper Class Demigods, 10 dolls, resembling the Upper Class Demigods, which was hidden in the top of the Castle of the Eleven Lords, contained the souls of the Upper Class Demigods, and were eventually turned into vessels. Like most of the periods, this lasted for 400 years.
