@Wind WildWeird! I derived all the dates from sources in this thread and the interest check. It may be the time scale I'm using, which was meant to mimic Earth's human history since I thought this was sorta an alternate universe. I've outlined my reasoning below.
Just a quick message: By rough estimates the year this season takes place is 2254.
2254 A.D. This is where I got the current date.
Surrendering her consciousness, Hazumi was dormant for the next 20 years. When she awoke Hell’s Gate was broken, her wielder was defeated and the Surface was populated by much more demons than it’d ever been. Hazumi was then convinced by Luciana to surrender most of her power to the humans and so she did.
2056 A.D. The reforming of the Peacekeepers was an estimate. Since it happened after the fall of Hell's gate, it had to happen during or after Judas' rule.
It has been over two hundred years since he helped stop Judas.
2054 A.D. Pretty simple math by going back 200 years from the current date.
The Gates were originally two, controlled by two Gatekeepers. They were created by Aaurus himself and served to keep the three races and three worlds apart. They did that by fuelling the essence of Heaven. Surface and Hell, defining who the angels, demons and humans are and what sets them apart. Heaven’s gate took on the appearance of a Violin and its player was Chime. She was the first to fall, killed by the Fleshshaper and causing the merging of Heaven and Surface. The second Gate was a Harp, played by Melody. Both were destroyed in 2014 by a madman called Judas, causing a huge amount of magic and Hellions to flood the Surface. The remains of both the Gates and Gatekeepers now live on in Hazumi and the Wielders’ Instruments.
A group of Hellions pushed their way past Hell's Gate and started killing and eating everything in sight, including Angels. The Council gathered the remaining Angels in a defensive manner around their headquarters. Hazumi was gone, and all the Council Members and Angels were there. As soon as the Hellions hit them and everything descended into Chaos, Lucien started killing Council members.
2020 A.D. This was another estimate based on these two sources. It would have been more accurate to list it under 2014, but there isn't really a year when Judas' rule is officially started. However, it would have to be assumed his empire was created and lasted somewhere between 2014 and 2045.
As Merlin mentioned, the Council was disbanded/crushed when Judas came to power so whatever surviving offshoots of it there are, they're not an official institution. There are a lot of para-legal groups in Loom and around the world(s) though.
2014 A.D. So the Council fell when Judas took power and destroyed the gates, which was in 2014.
Name: Hazumi
Alias: Essence (of the World), Violin, Chime, Motherslayer
Age: apparent: 27; actual: pieces of her existed in one shape or another since the creation of the worlds 7000 years ago. Hazumi as a single entity was created approximately 245 years ago.
2009 A.D. Another simple subtraction: 245 from the current date, which puts her 'birth' at 2009. It might make more sense for her to have been born a few decades or even centuries older, as that would give her more time before going into a torpor and awaking post 2014, after the fall of Hell's Gate. Of course, if her birth as an individual actually references her life after awaking from a torpor, post 2014 would make more sense, and so she'd be a few years younger.
For the past four centuries, the Peacekeepers were monitoring the entire populace for unauthorised murder and have ensured the culprit got what they deserved - be it punishment or mercy.
1854 A.D. This one was pretty simple, subtracting 400 years from the current date.
Everything else is okay and as far as the Great War is considered, don’t worry, that was over 3000 years ago.
0734 B.C. So this is an approximate date I got by subtracting 3000 from the current date, but confusion of its placement may be my use of the A.D. / B.C. time scale. A.D indicates all time after the death of Christ and B.C. indicates all periods of time before the birth of Christ. Since this world appears to be an alternate Earth, I used this scale, which places The Great War around the first Olympics in ancient Greece.
As for chimeras and the demon virus, they're also approximate dates because all I knew was they happened before The Great War.
@FairessThe world is 7000 years old.
7000 B.C.Looking over the scale again, I realized I was correct putting the creation of the worlds at 5000 B.C. this is because 5000 B.C. indicates 5000 years before Christ's birth, not 5000 years from the current date.
