Ancient history timeline

creation: The Creation Gods, entities beyond the universe itself, create the Multiverse, an infinite amount of parallel scenarios based off of the same atomic matter.

-Everything, one of the creation gods, forms millions of Outer Gods, and spreads them across the multiverse.

-The Gardener and Winnower, the two Creation Gods personifying life and death, make a wages on which is the more powerful force. Thus Traveler Moons and Darkness Pyramids are sewn throughout the multiverse in untold billions as physical manifestations of thoughts by both Creation Gods.

-Souls are established as the primary form of sentient essence storage.

-Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory, the 3 Ascendent Dimensions, are created as a trivial form of soul sorting by the Creation Gods. Makys are created to serve as the wardens of all 3 dimensions.

-Life is sewn through various means across the multiverse in massive numbers.

-Two million years later, a group of immaterial intelligences known as the Overminds gain knowledge of the multiverse. They seek to create their own universe and succeed, creating the pocket dimension known as the Overworld.

-The GvF universe’s Outer Gods all go quiet, their jobs complete. One, however, remains semi-active after creating Earth.

-Early sentient life begins to form. Space travel is created within four millennia.

—Approximate time: 3 billion years before The Bloodbath

-The Overminds fall to petty fighting. Two remain, one of which leaves the Overworld to study the Darkness, becoming the first Witness. The other passes its’ consciousness into a massive, planet-sized

Machine, which acts as a telepathic lure for species advanced enough to discover the Overworld.

-The Voidwalkers, as well as many other god-like individuals, come into existence.

-A species known as the Shu’Ulathoi discover the Overworld. One is blessed with divine consciousness by the Overmind, now the physical center of the Overworld. The Arch-Advisor founds the Universal Union, a force devoted to uniting and perfecting life into one perfect form.

-250 million years before GvF’s modern day

-The Universal Union masters the art of harvesting Pyramids for their energies, which the Union used to invade other universes. They take the moniker of “The Combine”.

-Aurosian and Zetans gain sentience at roughly the same time.

-the last remaining Zetan colony ship crashes into Earth with the power to shatter Pangea.

-some Zetans survive on Earth, hunting the Dinosaurs to extinction some 100 million years later. The earth suffers a massive flood, however, and most die out due to a combination of the flood and constant nuclear war. A few survivors flee to Mars.

-3 million years before the modern day

-Ruin is sealed away by The Witness.

-Eliksni and Aurosian become major players in the Milky Way, life thrives though humanity is still quite primitive

-Zetans and Aurosians wage war over the fate of Sol

-The Zeta War occurs, ending with the arrival of the Universal Union to the GvF universe and the collapse of Aurosian society. Remaining survivors on Earth are picked off one by one.

-The surviving fleets of both dying species wage one final battle against the Union, successfully collapsing the Dyson Sphere they had constructed around Sol’s sun. The Elder Beings wipe out all sapient humanoid life on Earth out of rage due to the Aurosians trying to colonize Antarctica; however, all but one of the Elder Beings die out to a combination of the Star Disease and other factors.

-Aurosian survivors hide on the dimension-between-dimensions, Xen, becoming the Wandering Fleet.

-the UU’s leader is believed dead, though in reality it simply crashed off the coast of Australia

-200 years before GvF modern times

-The Wandering Fleet places a commission to the biologically-skilled Makrs, to create 300 clones of a human teenage girl to serve as template soldiers for an experiment. The Makyrs collapse to infighting soon after, and only two clones remain. One is left behind in Purgatory, and one finds Hell, putting the Demons in charge of Hell now that the 3 Dimensions are now unprotected.

-the remaining Makyrs and the Kahn Makyr disappear

-Eliksni society falls.
