Ages

Ages or Arcs are how I differentiate different periods of time and era's in the Saedra universe. Kinds of like the different ages in the likes of Lord of the Rings or Elder Scrolls or era's such as in Star Wars, which has the old republic, the clone wars, the galactic civil war and the new Republic. These names will not appear in universe and are purely to reference events and time.

## The Awakening/ A new Hope

This era involves the period of time from [./https://saedra.fandom.com/wiki/Ewan Ewan]'s Birth to the end of the Arianrhod Galactic war. One of the names is obviously from Star Wars a New Hope which fits do to the nature of the [./https://saedra.fandom.com/wiki/Saedra Saedra], with this era involving the birth of the 10 Saedra lords and the first defeat of the Dark Lord forces. Towards it's end it also has the destruction of Humanities homeworld [./https://saedra.fandom.com/wiki/Anewra Anewra] and their spreading throughout the galaxy.

## Prince of Egypt, Exodus, Human Covenant War

The name for this era is taken from it's several inspirations. That of which is the Human Covenant war from the Halo series and the story of Exodus by way of the Prince of Egypt movie.

Taking millennia after the previous arc the Saedra have passed into legend, very few believe in them any more. The civilizations of Arianrhod have found a way to move between Galaxies and so embarked on exploring the 2 nearest. The closest they made contact with races on various levels of technology.

The furthest they made contact with the Galactic spanning Empire of the **Turanin.** A species on near the same technological levels as that of Arionrhods. At first contact was cordial. Then the Turanin launched an unprovoked attack on the colonies within their galaxy. They announced their intentions as "the extermination or subjugation of lesser species is the will of the gods." Thus the 3 galaxies were plunged into a centuries long war.

New Saedra are born to the different races of the galaxies. The focus being on the Moses based male **Turanin** and the (Halo) Spartan based female **Ezentvae.  A**s of this edit 01/04/2021 the plan is for the story dealing with the Saedra being a trilogy. Book 1 deals with the two main characters and the on going war.

Book 2 deals with similarities between the combined influences. For one the Moses based flees his home galaxy having murdered a Turanin for it's treatment of a slave, as well his out of place nature among the Turanin. He eventually discovers what remains of [./https://saedra.fandom.com/wiki/Anewra Anewra] and has a burning bush like moment involving contact with the First Saedra. He returns to his homeworld warning of the Saedra's return should the Turanin not cease their war. A galactic scale 10 plagues of Egypt occurs.

Meanwhile the Spartan undertakes mission to capture "Moses" so as to force a ceasefire. (based on the mission Master Chief was originally meant to be on before the events of halo CE) she eventually catches up to him on Anwera where it's revealed that the Saedra do exist and both they and several allies are also Saedra. She returns to the alliance and warn them of Turanin attacks, as well as convince them to help Koganeno when it is attacked.

The book ends with the Turanin attack on the Saedra holy planet, the alliance not giving immediate aid and simply watching. The Turanin believe themselves already victorious as they vastly out number the Koganeno fleet and ground forces have already entered the temple. A lone ship appears warning the Turanin to withdraw. The ship creates a false explosion as it comes underfire. The transmission of the Turanin admral is cute off as, A fleet larger than their own arrives and opens fire.

Book 3 deals with the First Saedra's return while still focusing on the 2 main characters. The book also deals with Religious hypocrisy as well as those who use faith to their own ends. It also takes a dig at arrogant atheists. It would start off where two left off. The Saedra forces are annihilating the Turanin. At the temple it's revealed there's a portal to the Saedra's homeworld where the Saedra forces pour out of and deal with the ground forces.

With the battle over, a meeting is organised on the holy world and all again the Turanin. The Saedra are met with arrogant and prosumtuous Religious leaders who are snubbed for loosing their way, they also deal with any bigotry. The Lord Admiral of the alliance isn't too happy and tries to make demands of the Saedra only to be heavily rebuct. The story then follow's as the Turanin are pushed back to their homeworld by the combined forces. Plans are made for the final battle, the Saedra hope to free the Turanin from the influence of the [./https://saedra.fandom.com/wiki/Saedra false Saedra], meanwhile corrupt religious leaders and the Lord Admiral hope to destroy not only the Turanin but also the Saedra. The attack get underway, Moses fights his brother while Spartan and the other Saedra deal with the false. Once killed the Turanin surrender. The Lord Admrial however has the fleet bombard the entire Planet. The Saedra protect the planet's inhabitants while unleashing their true power to destroy the Admrials fleet. The corrupt religious leaders are exposed and killed and the Saedra guide the 3 galaxies to a golden age of forgiveness and healing.

While the Saedra story for this age is short, this age is intended for other stories taking place within the timeframe.

## Star Wars

Yeah this age is inspired by star wars, what degree exactly I'm not sure. General idea is to have a Jedi Sith dynamic with the [./https://saedra.fandom.com/wiki/Valnua Valnua] showing how it's what mortals place on the power's, limits and morals. Of course new Saedra are born here.

## Mass Effect/Reapers/ Ruptured Universe

My username namesake really is influencing my universe. The idea is that this age follows on from events that happens in the first, with what I'd call my 3 book, which introduces the big bad creating Reaper like beings. The end of which see's them fleeing the Galaxy and the Saedra unable to go after them as the enemy attacks other planets.

This main Saedra story focus varies through several ideas. One is closer to the Mass Effect trilogy while the other is closer to a fanfiction. One thing is that humans have little to no involvement. Taking the Place of humans is a reptile race that looks human (a star wars race would give a good idea). The collectors are replaced with the original enemy forces, orcs and such. The character of Legion is actually a tie to the Saedra, having been created and given live by them and told to saerch the universe for other Saedra and or the "Reapers". Shepards death in ME2 is replaced with the Saedra death. The Cerberus expy finding they don't exactly need to do the Lazarus project and watch as "Shepard" repairs herself.
