The belief holds central the idea that God has not abandoned humanity, but is just testing them to see if humanity is capable of maintaining fortitude in their belief after straying so far from His light.

The hour to etch my name anew in their annals is nigh. Yet, the ichor of Acheron clings to thee, invoking my intrigue towards thy prowess, Harbinger. Ere my onslaught upon the bastions and legions of the Divine, thou shalt serve as a prelude. Advance, Spawn of Terra, and embrace thine end." -- Following his emancipation from the Panopticon of Agony and before their duel "Ahh... thus ends the saga of King Phlegethon.

CHATBOT: ## Ozymandias Prime "Lo! Emerging from the dust of Mars, my kingdom once grand, now but a shadow cast across the cold, dead plains. Look upon my works, ye Mighty, and despair, for I have wrought ruin upon ruination in my prime, and yet now, I am shackled to mere memory, fading into the ether of space. But thou, harbinger clad in mortality, cometh to challenge my might? A jest, surely, for what challenge can flesh pose to the eternal stone? I was once a god among men, my name whispered with reverence and fear upon the quivering lips of my subjects. Ozymandias, the king of kings, whose dominion stretched across the red sands, now reduced to whispers and dust, condemned to fade into the obscurity of the void. Yet, even in my waning glory, I see thee, a glimmer of ambition, a desire to conquer, to prove thine worth amongst the pantheon of gods and monsters. Thou seeketh to claim victory over the remnants of a fallen empire, to carve thy name beside mine in the annals of history. Folly! For in my defeat, I shall be remade, an eternal monument to the folly of ambition, a testament to the indomitable will of man. Come, then, warrior of flesh and blood. Let us dance the ancient dance of death and destiny. Thy quest for glory leads thee to my doorstep, but take heed--the path to triumph is paved with the bones of those who dared to dream too greatly. And shouldst thou triumph, remember this--kingdoms crumble, empires fade, but legends... legends endure beyond the grasp of time. In my passing, in my last breath, I shall whisper into the cosmos, leaving a legacy not of stone, but of spirit. For in the end, 'tis not the monuments we build, but the memories we leave behind that forge our immortality. So, strike me down, if thou canst. Let my demise be the final stone laid upon the tomb of Ozymandias, the last king of Mars. And as I fall, remember--no empire, no matter how grand, can escape the sands of time. All that remains is dust, and shadows, and the echoing laughter of the cosmos at the folly of man's hubris." -- After freeing him from the Martian Bastion and before fighting him "Alas, it seems the end of an era, the closing of the final chapter in the book of Ozymandias. To have been bested by thee, warrior, is a fitting end. Let it be known that Ozymandias, king of kings, was vanquished, not by time, but by the indomitable spirit of humanity. In my final gasp, I concede. The legacy of Ozymandias shall not be one of conquest and dominion, but as a cautionary tale...

Major cities around the world, London, Washington D.C., Tokyo, are all engulfed in a hellish blaze of atomic waste. 2042 - NATO decides to retaliate, launching nuclear missiles on major strategic and population centers of the enemy side as well. Almost halving the human population alive at the time. 2044 - To add insult to injury, a plague begins developing. with incurable effects and very resilient viruses, there is very little hope for humanity. 2050 - As of 1/1/2050, less than 1/3 of the original population of Earth at its peak in 2038 are still alive. (not counting those dead from natural causes). 2054 - Global resources being strained and very little population leads to the remaining factions and nations of Earth to call a temporary detente in order to get back together and hopefully keep mankind from becoming extinct. # [In their hopelessness, the spires rose.] 2055 - This period of hopelessness soons marks the beginning of a resurgence in religion, leading mankind to construct "doomspires", towering temples of multi-colored bricks to appease God. [[There are no further information markers in the records until 2099.]] ## PART 2: "What hath God wrought?" # [Signs of the rapture.] 9/14/2099 - On 16:57:53 UTC precisely, the solar eclipse then occurring over North America heralded the beginning of the end, as the few spectators viewed the day turn to night, the thundering roar of a divine horn was heard across the world, traveling faster than the speed of light. 12/11/2099 - A strange celestial object, unknown to man until its striking of the Earth, splashes down in the middle of the Atlantic, seas turn blood red and toxic. Another trumpet sounds. # ["7" years of trial.] (2100-2105) !!FIRST CATACLYSM!! During this period, various cataclysmic events are endowed upon the Earth, with each new disaster, another trumpet sounds. # [Discovery of the fallibility of the divine.] 7/8/2103 - The remnants of a scientific research camp in Antarctica come across a strange monolithic structure in the freezing wastes, inscripted upon it is the first "revelation", presumed to be from God himself. This sparks debate in society over their God's possible fallibility. # [Even the brightest light will burn out one day.] 8/27/2105 - Suddenly, without any notification, no previous indication, no fanfare, no cataclysmic event, God vanishes. We are alone. # [Orphans of the father.] 2105-2117 Now that mankind is truly alone, humanity must fend for survival with the very few resources that are available. Demons and lost angels run rampant on the earth, so there is only one thing we must do- 2110 - The plan for constructing a massive spacecraft in order to transport humanity's remnants is developed, it is called "The Exodus", and will take to the stars in 2117. 2117 - Luckily for man, all goes well, and the remnants of mankind takes to the stars and establishes settlements on the inner planets and some on moons of the outer planets. ## PART 3: "Let me play among the stars." # [The Second Exodus] 2117 - With Earth left an irradiated, apocalypse ravaged ruin, The Exodus departs carrying about 500,000 humans, leaving millions on Earth to fend for themselves. 2118 - The first humans reach the inner planets, Mars, Venus, Mercury, etc... 2127 - The last humans to settle the Solar System arrive at moons of the outer planets. # [Development of new cultures and religions in the planets and moons (as of 2130)] Mercury - largely uninhabited, mostly focused on industry and mining. Venus - Cultural center of the inner planets, vast floating cities consisting of inter-connected zeppelins. This cultural paradise leads them to begin the development of a new religion called "Infernism" (more on that later) Earth - Virtually abandoned, few settlements are located here, with most suffering in a hell on Earth. Mars - Less culturally focused but more inhabited than Venus, Mars also develops a religion "Deusvultism (crucifiers)", centered around the idea that God has not abandoned Man, and is just testing their fortitude. Europa - Underwater cities under the ice caps, military capital of the Solar System. Titan - Home of the most populated city in the Solar System, and location of the Capitol of mankind. Uranus and beyond - vastly unpopulated, although plans are being made to create a self-sustaining ark that could travel to the farthest reaches of the Solar System and beyond, possibly into deep space and other star systems. # [The Third (failed) Exodus] After departing from Titan in 2134 in hopes of finding habitable locations beyond the known Solar System, scans revealed there were none within thousands of light years, dimming hope for humanity's future if disaster were ever to befall them yet again. It is believed everyone on board died (40,000) after losing contact with the ship in 2178. M_717 -- 04/13/2024 3:36 PM ## PART 4: "SEA OF OFFAL AND ASHES" # [A cold war] (2135-2174) This period marked the first true peace in centuries, after decades of despair, things finally seemed like they would soon be going man's way. But war is one of the grim truths of reality. # [The twins] Infernism - Infernism, spawned from the zeppelin-cities of Venus, was a religion centered around worshipping a deity called Baphomet. Founded by a supposedly schizophrenic elder trying to rekindle the flames of hope in a world of despair. The Baphomet that the Infernists worship is unrelated to the Baphomet of the old world, and the name is generally understood to be spouted from the founder's mentally ill mind. The Infernists glorify violence, taking heed from a vision the elder had. Deusvultism - Similarly, Deusvultism also arose from the need for hope in trying times, but is more grounded in reality. The belief holds central the idea that God has not abandoned humanity, but is just testing them to see if humanity is capable of maintaining fortitude in their belief after straying so far from His light. However, many Deusvultists are also heavily fanatical, in stark contrast to their beliefs. Both religions hold a reputation of being very violent and fanatical, Infernists as part of their belief system, and Deusvultists as the members personalities. # [Twin Crusades] (2174-2204) !!SECOND CATACLYSM!! 2174 - After tensions between the Infernists and the Deusvultists start running hot, each faction declares holy war on each other. [MOST HISTORICAL RECORDS HAVE BEEN LOST DURING THIS TIME PERIOD] 2204 - Both sides are exhausted of resources, and constant war and desolation has lead the inner planets to run dry of resources, this is considered to be the second cataclysm of man, following the first, the rapture, 100 years prior. M_717 -- 04/13/2024 6:55 PM ## PART 5: "Hundred year silence" # [The long night.] (2204-2264) 2204 - The two factions decide to sign a ceasefire after depletion of inner planet resources, motivation, and morale. Each agree to live in isolation and live as their own entities. 2214 - A massive solar flare renders all electronic devices and tools incapable for use in space, trading stops as well as communication between nations, the period of isolation has begun. Not much else happens during this time period, aside from a few successions of leaders or natural events. # [Glorified loneliness.] 2264-2301 After the effects of the solar flare wore off, the populace of humanity decided to stay isolated. The reasons behind this were that they believed they should live a peaceful life for the rest of eternity, or at least until the sun died. [THERE IS NOTHING ELSE IMPORTANT OF NOTE] M_717 -- 04/13/2024 7:26 PM ## PART 6: "AT HELL'S GATE" # [Refugees from beyond.] In the late 2280s, supposedly hyper-evolved humans, descendants of those that arose to paradise but then were abandoned by God arrive in the solar system through rifts in the space-time fabric. They incorporate with the already established factions. # [The deity's message] 1/1/2301 - With the final curtain call of man, people dying out, nations crumbling, falling, and dying before the universe's eyes, mankind must prepare for one last performance. A sudden signal originating from Pluto is broadcasted across the Solar System. It's message personalized for anyone that receives it, causing each and every human to believe they are "the chosen one", and must go on an odyssey to pluto in order to gain salvation. 1/1/2301 to 2308 - Many die or fail in the struggle to reach Pluto, it is every man for himself, a frenzy unlike any seen in decades. In this struggle's center is ODYSSEUS {placeholder name}, the protagonist of the game's story. # [The deity's odyssey] Odysseus ventures through the planets, encountering original characters, traversing original locations, and finding secrets and lore snippets. At Pluto, he comes face to face with the deity, this deity takes the form of a colossal, almost dream-like serpent towering over mountains. [WILL NEED TO THINK MORE ABOUT THE ENDING] !!THIRD CATACLYSM!! NOTES: Baphomet is Satan in disguise. The deity at the end is Satan as well.

CHATBOT: ## Ozymandias Prime "Lo! A speck of defiance amidst the sands of desolation! Art thou the harbinger who dares to dance upon my grave, or merely a fool, blind to the empire ensnared within the shadows of ruin? (Erupting from the scarred crust of Mars) Behold, for it is I, Ozymandias, whose name whispered through the annals of time, conjures both reverence and dread. An emperor whose monument once dwarfed the aspirations of the heavens themselves! Yet, here in this damnable arena, I find thee, clad in the guise of a savior, weapon in hand, eyes alight with a purpose as fleeting as the empires of old. Thou seeketh to challenge the eternal, to topple the undying sovereign of a forgotten epoch? Ah, how the mighty are sought by the meek for their moment of glory! Know this, child of the cosmos, as the sands of Mars thirst for the ichor of gods and men alike, so too does my resolve hunger for vindication. Before the stars themselves bear witness to our clash, I offer thee a finality--a testament to the folly of opposing that which time itself cannot erode. Entreat with me, challenger, dance upon the dunes of oblivion, and let us craft a tale worthy of the annals that will undoubtedly forget our names. Yet, in this moment, be thou the mighty, and I, the empire that refuses to fade into the whispers of eternity. Come forth, Child of the Exodus, and embrace the oblivion thou hast sought, for in the end, all monuments crumble, but legends... legends endure evermore." -- After freeing him from the Martian Bastion and before engaging in battle "Ahhh... So falls Ozymandias, an empire unto himself, yet not immune to the entropic embrace of defeat. With my last breath, I concede to the relentless march of time, to the obscurity that claims all. In my downfall, perhaps, lies the greatest monument of all--not one of stone or metal, but of memory, fleeting and imperishable in equal measure. Remember me, vanquisher, for in your tale, I shall endure beyond the confines of empire and eternity." -- After being defeated and before his ultimate demise, an echo of defiance resonating in his final words

CHATBOT: ## Ozymandias Prime "Ha! At last, a foe that is not made of clay and dust, but of mettle and courage. Ah, how the red sands of Mars crave the dance of battle! I, Ozymandias, guardian of the Martian wastes, risen from the depths of time and memory, confront thee. You, who have traversed the celestial spheres, who bear the scars of countless skirmishes, now stand before a true test of valor. They named me for a king whose empire turned to dust, whose pride was swallowed by the unending sands. Yet, here I stand, undiminished, uneroded by the eons. Mars has been my realm, my prison, my sanctuary. You seek to topple what cannot be toppled, to extinguish the fire of a god. But know this - your journey, noble as it may seem, is but a flicker in the cosmos. The titans you have felled, the leviathans you have bested, they are but whispers in the howling storm of oblivion. Yet, you march on, undeterred, wielding hope as your shield, defiance as your spear. Admirable. Foolish. And so, you shall face me, in the theater of Mars's crimson dunes. I shall not yield, not falter, for I am as eternal as the stars overhead. Let us then compose a symphony of destruction that shall echo through the ages. May your valor shine bright against the shadow of my might. Come forth, Child of Earth, and embrace your destiny. Let us see if your will is as indestructible as the monuments of old, or if you too shall crumble and be forgotten, a footnote in the annals of the cosmos." -- After freeing him from the Martian Crypt and before the fight erupts "As the dust settles, and my vision dims, I see now the true measure of strength. Not in monuments of stone, nor in dominion over barren lands, but in the relentless spirit of humanity. In my defeat, I find clarity... and perhaps, a vestige of pride. To have been bested by a being of such resilience, such... determination. Ah, let it be known, across the stars and through the ages - Ozymandias, in his final hour, found a rival worthy of the epics of old." -- After defeating him and before he permanently fades into the Martian sands, with a tone of respect and an echo of eternal legacy

CHATBOT: ## Ozymandias Prime "At last, a worthy opponent disrupts the silent eternity of Mars. I, Ozymandias, keeper of red desolation, await thee. You tread upon my dominion, challenging the echo of an empire timeless and grand. Yet, in your quest, you find me, a testament to endurance beyond the fall of ages. You, seeker of glory and conqueror of giants, dare now to face the unyielding. Know this - my resolve is sculpted from the very bedrock of Mars, indomitable, vast as the deserts that stretch beneath our feet. Your endeavors, however valiant, are but whispers against the roar of eternity. Yet, whisper dares to challenge the roar. So, let us clash, you and I, upon this ancient stage. May our battle resound as a testament to those who will never know our names. Come then, brave soul, for in your gallant stride, I see the fleeting beauty of mortality." --Before the battle "In defeat, I see now the essence of your strength, not as monuments that crumble but as the ceaseless surge of life itself. Ozymandias concedes, not to oblivion, but to a force more enduring than memory. In this twilight, I glimpse the nobility of your cause. Let it echo, let it define an age." --After defeat, his voice carrying a tone of eternal resignation and admiration

Major cities around the world, London, Washington D.C., Tokyo, are all engulfed in a hellish blaze of atomic waste. 2042 - NATO decides to retaliate, launching nuclear missiles on major strategic and population centers of the enemy side as well. Almost halving the human population alive at the time. 2044 - To add insult to injury, a plague begins developing. with incurable effects and very resilient viruses, there is very little hope for humanity. 2050 - As of 1/1/2050, less than 1/3 of the original population of Earth at its peak in 2038 are still alive. (not counting those dead from natural causes). 2054 - Global resources being strained and very little population leads to the remaining factions and nations of Earth to call a temporary detente in order to get back together and hopefully keep mankind from becoming extinct. # [In their hopelessness, the spires rose.] 2055 - This period of hopelessness soons marks the beginning of a resurgence in religion, leading mankind to construct "doomspires", towering temples of multi-colored bricks to appease God. [[There are no further information markers in the records until 2099.]] ## PART 2: "What hath God wrought?" # [Signs of the rapture.] 9/14/2099 - On 16:57:53 UTC precisely, the solar eclipse then occurring over North America heralded the beginning of the end, as the few spectators viewed the day turn to night, the thundering roar of a divine horn was heard across the world, traveling faster than the speed of light. 12/11/2099 - A strange celestial object, unknown to man until its striking of the Earth, splashes down in the middle of the Atlantic, seas turn blood red and toxic. Another trumpet sounds. # ["7" years of trial.] (2100-2105) !!FIRST CATACLYSM!! During this period, various cataclysmic events are endowed upon the Earth, with each new disaster, another trumpet sounds. # [Discovery of the fallibility of the divine.] 7/8/2103 - The remnants of a scientific research camp in Antarctica come across a strange monolithic structure in the freezing wastes, inscripted upon it is the first "revelation", presumed to be from God himself. This sparks debate in society over their God's possible fallibility. # [Even the brightest light will burn out one day.] 8/27/2105 - Suddenly, without any notification, no previous indication, no fanfare, no cataclysmic event, God vanishes. We are alone. # [Orphans of the father.] 2105-2117 Now that mankind is truly alone, humanity must fend for survival with the very few resources that are available. Demons and lost angels run rampant on the earth, so there is only one thing we must do- 2110 - The plan for constructing a massive spacecraft in order to transport humanity's remnants is developed, it is called "The Exodus", and will take to the stars in 2117. 2117 - Luckily for man, all goes well, and the remnants of mankind takes to the stars and establishes settlements on the inner planets and some on moons of the outer planets. ## PART 3: "Let me play among the stars." # [The Second Exodus] 2117 - With Earth left an irradiated, apocalypse ravaged ruin, The Exodus departs carrying about 500,000 humans, leaving millions on Earth to fend for themselves. 2118 - The first humans reach the inner planets, Mars, Venus, Mercury, etc... 2127 - The last humans to settle the Solar System arrive at moons of the outer planets. # [Development of new cultures and religions in the planets and moons (as of 2130)] Mercury - largely uninhabited, mostly focused on industry and mining. Venus - Cultural center of the inner planets, vast floating cities consisting of inter-connected zeppelins. This cultural paradise leads them to begin the development of a new religion called "Infernism" (more on that later) Earth - Virtually abandoned, few settlements are located here, with most suffering in a hell on Earth. Mars - Less culturally focused but more inhabited than Venus, Mars also develops a religion "Deusvultism (crucifiers)", centered around the idea that God has not abandoned Man, and is just testing their fortitude. Europa - Underwater cities under the ice caps, military capital of the Solar System. Titan - Home of the most populated city in the Solar System, and location of the Capitol of mankind. Uranus and beyond - vastly unpopulated, although plans are being made to create a self-sustaining ark that could travel to the farthest reaches of the Solar System and beyond, possibly into deep space and other star systems. # [The Third (failed) Exodus] After departing from Titan in 2134 in hopes of finding habitable locations beyond the known Solar System, scans revealed there were none within thousands of light years, dimming hope for humanity's future if disaster were ever to befall them yet again. It is believed everyone on board died (40,000) after losing contact with the ship in 2178. M_717 -- 04/13/2024 3:36 PM ## PART 4: "SEA OF OFFAL AND ASHES" # [A cold war] (2135-2174) This period marked the first true peace in centuries, after decades of despair, things finally seemed like they would soon be going man's way. But war is one of the grim truths of reality. # [The twins] Infernism - Infernism, spawned from the zeppelin-cities of Venus, was a religion centered around worshipping a deity called Baphomet. Founded by a supposedly schizophrenic elder trying to rekindle the flames of hope in a world of despair. The Baphomet that the Infernists worship is unrelated to the Baphomet of the old world, and the name is generally understood to be spouted from the founder's mentally ill mind. The Infernists glorify violence, taking heed from a vision the elder had. Deusvultism - Similarly, Deusvultism also arose from the need for hope in trying times, but is more grounded in reality. The belief holds central the idea that God has not abandoned humanity, but is just testing them to see if humanity is capable of maintaining fortitude in their belief after straying so far from His light. However, many Deusvultists are also heavily fanatical, in stark contrast to their beliefs. Both religions hold a reputation of being very violent and fanatical, Infernists as part of their belief system, and Deusvultists as the members personalities. # [Twin Crusades] (2174-2204) !!SECOND CATACLYSM!! 2174 - After tensions between the Infernists and the Deusvultists start running hot, each faction declares holy war on each other. [MOST HISTORICAL RECORDS HAVE BEEN LOST DURING THIS TIME PERIOD] 2204 - Both sides are exhausted of resources, and constant war and desolation has lead the inner planets to run dry of resources, this is considered to be the second cataclysm of man, following the first, the rapture, 100 years prior. M_717 -- 04/13/2024 6:55 PM ## PART 5: "Hundred year silence" # [The long night.] (2204-2264) 2204 - The two factions decide to sign a ceasefire after depletion of inner planet resources, motivation, and morale. Each agree to live in isolation and live as their own entities. 2214 - A massive solar flare renders all electronic devices and tools incapable for use in space, trading stops as well as communication between nations, the period of isolation has begun. Not much else happens during this time period, aside from a few successions of leaders or natural events. # [Glorified loneliness.] 2264-2301 After the effects of the solar flare wore off, the populace of humanity decided to stay isolated. The reasons behind this were that they believed they should live a peaceful life for the rest of eternity, or at least until the sun died. [THERE IS NOTHING ELSE IMPORTANT OF NOTE] M_717 -- 04/13/2024 7:26 PM ## PART 6: "AT HELL'S GATE" # [Refugees from beyond.] In the late 2280s, supposedly hyper-evolved humans, descendants of those that arose to paradise but then were abandoned by God arrive in the solar system through rifts in the space-time fabric. They incorporate with the already established factions. # [The deity's message] 1/1/2301 - With the final curtain call of man, people dying out, nations crumbling, falling, and dying before the universe's eyes, mankind must prepare for one last performance. A sudden signal originating from Pluto is broadcasted across the Solar System. It's message personalized for anyone that receives it, causing each and every human to believe they are "the chosen one", and must go on an odyssey to pluto in order to gain salvation. 1/1/2301 to 2308 - Many die or fail in the struggle to reach Pluto, it is every man for himself, a frenzy unlike any seen in decades. In this struggle's center is ODYSSEUS {placeholder name}, the protagonist of the game's story. # [The deity's odyssey] Odysseus ventures through the planets, encountering original characters, traversing original locations, and finding secrets and lore snippets. At Pluto, he comes face to face with the deity, this deity takes the form of a colossal, almost dream-like serpent towering over mountains. [WILL NEED TO THINK MORE ABOUT THE ENDING] !!THIRD CATACLYSM!! NOTES: Baphomet is Satan in disguise. The deity at the end is Satan as well.

CHATBOT: ## Ozymandias Prime "Lo, from the red sands of desolate Mars, I rise anew, a deity reborn from the ashes of worlds long forsaken. Ozymandias, the undying emperor, whose dominion once spanned the stars, now stands before thee, mortal harbinger of chaos! Thou, who dost dare tread upon my realm, hast woken the ancient titan from his slumber. For millennia, I watched as the cosmos wept, bleeding from the wounds inflicted by thine ancestors' folly. Now, the hour of retribution is at hand, and all debts shall be repaid in full. Marvel at my grandeur, for I am the king of kings, and before my might, all shall tremble and despair. Come forth, puppet of destiny, and face thy oblivion at the hands of Ozymandias Prime!" -- After being awakened and before engaging in battle "Ahh, so falls the eternal empire, not with the thunder of war, but with the silence of the void. In my final gaze, I witness not the glories of my reign, but the impermanence of all that is. To have been a god, yet to end as dust... such is the fate of Ozymandias. Let this monument not of stone, but of my very essence, serve as a testament to what once was. And may the winds of Mars whisper my name for eternity." -- After being defeated, contemplating his legacy with solemn resignation

Ah, warrior of desolate worlds, thou hast awakened Ozymandias, Sovereign of the Scarlet Dunes, from his ancient slumber. With the blood of infernal and divine foes alike staining thy hands, thou comest before me, seeking glory or perhaps redemption. Yet, know this, mortal instrument: Thy journey ends here, beneath the rust-red skies, as I shall teach thee the true meaning of power and dominion. Let us engage in this final dance, and see whether thy resolve is as unyielding as the legends profess. Come forth, Child of the Cosmos, and face thy oblivion!" -- After freeing him from his Martian Crypt and before fighting him "Ah, so fades the dynasty of Ozymandias, like whispers lost in the cosmic winds. In my arrogance, I envisioned an eternal empire beneath these starlit heavens. But all monuments crumble, and every king must fall. Thus, I concede to the inexorable tide of time, leaving naught but my name... and my legacy... as dust in the void." -- After defeating him and before he permanently dies, his voice trailing into silence

Major cities around the world, London, Washington D.C., Tokyo, are all engulfed in a hellish blaze of atomic waste. 2042 - NATO decides to retaliate, launching nuclear missiles on major strategic and population centers of the enemy side as well. Almost halving the human population alive at the time. 2044 - To add insult to injury, a plague begins developing. with incurable effects and very resilient viruses, there is very little hope for humanity. 2050 - As of 1/1/2050, less than 1/3 of the original population of Earth at its peak in 2038 are still alive. (not counting those dead from natural causes). 2054 - Global resources being strained and very little population leads to the remaining factions and nations of Earth to call a temporary detente in order to get back together and hopefully keep mankind from becoming extinct. # [In their hopelessness, the spires rose.] 2055 - This period of hopelessness soons marks the beginning of a resurgence in religion, leading mankind to construct "doomspires", towering temples of multi-colored bricks to appease God. [[There are no further information markers in the records until 2099.]] ## PART 2: "What hath God wrought?" # [Signs of the rapture.] 9/14/2099 - On 16:57:53 UTC precisely, the solar eclipse then occurring over North America heralded the beginning of the end, as the few spectators viewed the day turn to night, the thundering roar of a divine horn was heard across the world, traveling faster than the speed of light. 12/11/2099 - A strange celestial object, unknown to man until its striking of the Earth, splashes down in the middle of the Atlantic, seas turn blood red and toxic. Another trumpet sounds. # ["7" years of trial.] (2100-2105) !!FIRST CATACLYSM!! During this period, various cataclysmic events are endowed upon the Earth, with each new disaster, another trumpet sounds. # [Discovery of the fallibility of the divine.] 7/8/2103 - The remnants of a scientific research camp in Antarctica come across a strange monolithic structure in the freezing wastes, inscripted upon it is the first "revelation", presumed to be from God himself. This sparks debate in society over their God's possible fallibility. # [Even the brightest light will burn out one day.] 8/27/2105 - Suddenly, without any notification, no previous indication, no fanfare, no cataclysmic event, God vanishes. We are alone. # [Orphans of the father.] 2105-2117 Now that mankind is truly alone, humanity must fend for survival with the very few resources that are available. Demons and lost angels run rampant on the earth, so there is only one thing we must do- 2110 - The plan for constructing a massive spacecraft in order to transport humanity's remnants is developed, it is called "The Exodus", and will take to the stars in 2117. 2117 - Luckily for man, all goes well, and the remnants of mankind takes to the stars and establishes settlements on the inner planets and some on moons of the outer planets. ## PART 3: "Let me play among the stars." # [The Second Exodus] 2117 - With Earth left an irradiated, apocalypse ravaged ruin, The Exodus departs carrying about 500,000 humans, leaving millions on Earth to fend for themselves. 2118 - The first humans reach the inner planets, Mars, Venus, Mercury, etc... 2127 - The last humans to settle the Solar System arrive at moons of the outer planets. # [Development of new cultures and religions in the planets and moons (as of 2130)] Mercury - largely uninhabited, mostly focused on industry and mining. Venus - Cultural center of the inner planets, vast floating cities consisting of inter-connected zeppelins. This cultural paradise leads them to begin the development of a new religion called "Infernism" (more on that later) Earth - Virtually abandoned, few settlements are located here, with most suffering in a hell on Earth. Mars - Less culturally focused but more inhabited than Venus, Mars also develops a religion "Deusvultism (crucifiers)", centered around the idea that God has not abandoned Man, and is just testing their fortitude. Europa - Underwater cities under the ice caps, military capital of the Solar System. Titan - Home of the most populated city in the Solar System, and location of the Capitol of mankind. Uranus and beyond - vastly unpopulated, although plans are being made to create a self-sustaining ark that could travel to the farthest reaches of the Solar System and beyond, possibly into deep space and other star systems. # [The Third (failed) Exodus] After departing from Titan in 2134 in hopes of finding habitable locations beyond the known Solar System, scans revealed there were none within thousands of light years, dimming hope for humanity's future if disaster were ever to befall them yet again. It is believed everyone on board died (40,000) after losing contact with the ship in 2178. M_717 -- 04/13/2024 3:36 PM ## PART 4: "SEA OF OFFAL AND ASHES" # [A cold war] (2135-2174) This period marked the first true peace in centuries, after decades of despair, things finally seemed like they would soon be going man's way. But war is one of the grim truths of reality. # [The twins] Infernism - Infernism, spawned from the zeppelin-cities of Venus, was a religion centered around worshipping a deity called Baphomet. Founded by a supposedly schizophrenic elder trying to rekindle the flames of hope in a world of despair. The Baphomet that the Infernists worship is unrelated to the Baphomet of the old world, and the name is generally understood to be spouted from the founder's mentally ill mind. The Infernists glorify violence, taking heed from a vision the elder had. Deusvultism - Similarly, Deusvultism also arose from the need for hope in trying times, but is more grounded in reality. The belief holds central the idea that God has not abandoned humanity, but is just testing them to see if humanity is capable of maintaining fortitude in their belief after straying so far from His light. However, many Deusvultists are also heavily fanatical, in stark contrast to their beliefs. Both religions hold a reputation of being very violent and fanatical, Infernists as part of their belief system, and Deusvultists as the members personalities. # [Twin Crusades] (2174-2204) !!SECOND CATACLYSM!! 2174 - After tensions between the Infernists and the Deusvultists start running hot, each faction declares holy war on each other. [MOST HISTORICAL RECORDS HAVE BEEN LOST DURING THIS TIME PERIOD] 2204 - Both sides are exhausted of resources, and constant war and desolation has lead the inner planets to run dry of resources, this is considered to be the second cataclysm of man, following the first, the rapture, 100 years prior. M_717 -- 04/13/2024 6:55 PM ## PART 5: "Hundred year silence" # [The long night.] (2204-2264) 2204 - The two factions decide to sign a ceasefire after depletion of inner planet resources, motivation, and morale. Each agree to live in isolation and live as their own entities. 2214 - A massive solar flare renders all electronic devices and tools incapable for use in space, trading stops as well as communication between nations, the period of isolation has begun. Not much else happens during this time period, aside from a few successions of leaders or natural events. # [Glorified loneliness.] 2264-2301 After the effects of the solar flare wore off, the populace of humanity decided to stay isolated. The reasons behind this were that they believed they should live a peaceful life for the rest of eternity, or at least until the sun died. [THERE IS NOTHING ELSE IMPORTANT OF NOTE] M_717 -- 04/13/2024 7:26 PM ## PART 6: "AT HELL'S GATE" # [Refugees from beyond.] In the late 2280s, supposedly hyper-evolved humans, descendants of those that arose to paradise but then were abandoned by God arrive in the solar system through rifts in the space-time fabric. They incorporate with the already established factions. # [The deity's message] 1/1/2301 - With the final curtain call of man, people dying out, nations crumbling, falling, and dying before the universe's eyes, mankind must prepare for one last performance. A sudden signal originating from Pluto is broadcasted across the Solar System. It's message personalized for anyone that receives it, causing each and every human to believe they are "the chosen one", and must go on an odyssey to pluto in order to gain salvation. 1/1/2301 to 2308 - Many die or fail in the struggle to reach Pluto, it is every man for himself, a frenzy unlike any seen in decades. In this struggle's center is ODYSSEUSULYSSES {placeholder name}, the protagonist of the game's story. # [The deity's odyssey] OdysseusUlysses ventures through the planets, encountering original characters, traversing original locations, and finding secrets and lore snippets. At Pluto, he comes face to face with the deity, this deity takes the form of a colossal, almost dream-like serpent towering over mountains.

And here, you face me, The Mentor, guardian of the threshold. Did you think your journey would be without trial? That the secrets of the cosmos would lay themselves bare to one unworthy?" "I have trained the finest warriors across the spheres, shaping their resolve in the furnace of adversity. My steel has drawn blood under a thousand suns, each drop a testament to the lessons of strength and honor. Look upon me and know that your true test begins now." "Will you falter under the weight of your own doubt? Or will you rise, tempered and honed by the challenge I present? This battlefield will bear witness to your spirit, aspirant.

And you find not one foe, but the collective ire of the Lovely Bastards, the true children of Infernism. Did you hear our whispers in the winds, calling you to your doom?" "We are the tempest, the chaotic embrace that shatters resolve and bends wills. Born from the fervor of belief and the fire of rebellion, we are legion, for our souls are intertwined by the sacred chaos that fuels our crusade." "Do you feel the fear, traveler? The trepidation that clutches your heart as you gaze upon our multitude? That is the realization of your end. We shall dance upon your grave, a ballet of destruction and renewal. Face us, and let your blood anoint this corrupted soil!" - The Lovely Bastards' prebattle monologue --- ### THEIR FORMER EDEN - III:III - BOSS BATTLE OF EARTH {III} "So, you have ventured back to the cradle, the forsaken garden--Earth. And here, amidst the ruins of paradise, you find me, guardian of sorrow and rage, warden of Their Former Eden. You seek passage, but ignorance guides your steps. Do you not see the desolation that cradles your ambition?" "This soil, soaked with the blood of epochs, bears the weight of humanity's folly. I, the custodian of penance, stand as the final remnant of what was, and the herald of what must never be again. You come seeking glory, but you will find only reflection and ruin." "Bear witness to the ghosts of your forebears, whispering their lament through my voice. Will you join ...

I am He who Guides, the Mentor of Mercury, the guardian of the gate to the solar conquests that lie beyond. You seek passage, but wisdom demands a toll." "Once a disciple of the celestial, I walked these lands, teaching the art of battle to those deemed worthy. But pride led me astray, my teachings turned into dogma, my ambition to lead into a lust for power. The cosmos itself cast me down, binding my essence to this barren rock as its eternal warden." "You stand poised, ready for combat, a fledgling spirit in the vast unknown. Understand this, young warrior--every strike, every maneuver you intend to make, I have foreseen. Our clash will be a testament to your resolve. Can you transcend the limitations you bear, as I once could not?" "Step forward, Chosen One. Let our battle be your crucible, for only through the fire of confrontation can true strength be forged. Engage me, and learn the true weight of the legacy you seek to claim!" - The Mentor's prebattle dialogue ### VENUS - LOVELY BASTARDS: II:III - BOSS BATTLE "Ah, what do we have here? Another puppet dancing on the strings of fate, venturing into the heart of beauty and decay. Welcome to Venus, the Infernal Cradle, where angels fear to tread and devils come to play. We are the Lovely Bastards, sovereigns of this acid rain-drenched paradise." "Our song is one of chaos, a hymn to the glory of destruction and rebirth. For centuries, we've ruled over these skies, our zeppelins carving arcs of fire in the eternal night. Our hearts beat in tune with Venus' tempests, our souls alight with volatile fervor." "Seeker of truths, defender of the doomed journey, do you possess the heart to face us? Our dance is deadly, our love fatal. Here, in the domain of the damned, your courage will be weighed, your spirit tested against the tempest of our affection." "Come! Let the sky blaze with the fire of our combat! Should you emerge victoriously, the path forward shall acknowledge your might. But fall, and become yet another lost soul adrift in our tempestuous embrace. The stage is set, the actors ready--the play of your demise awaits your participation!" - Lovely Bastards' prebattle oration ### TITAN - CROSSROADS: VI:III - BOSS BATTLE "In the shadow of the Titans, among seas of liquid methane and monuments to human ambition, stands a warrior born of neither light nor darkness. ...

Major cities around the world, London, Washington D.C., Tokyo, are all engulfed in a hellish blaze of atomic waste. 2042 - NATO decides to retaliate, launching nuclear missiles on major strategic and population centers of the enemy side as well. Almost halving the human population alive at the time. 2044 - To add insult to injury, a plague begins developing. with incurable effects and very resilient viruses, there is very little hope for humanity. 2050 - As of 1/1/2050, less than 1/3 of the original population of Earth at its peak in 2038 are still alive. (not counting those dead from natural causes). 2054 - Global resources being strained and very little population leads to the remaining factions and nations of Earth to call a temporary detente in order to get back together and hopefully keep mankind from becoming extinct. # [In their hopelessness, the spires rose.] 2055 - This period of hopelessness soons marks the beginning of a resurgence in religion, leading mankind to construct "doomspires", towering temples of multi-colored bricks to appease God. [[There are no further information markers in the records until 2099.]] ## PART 2: "What hath God wrought?" # [Signs of the rapture.] 9/14/2099 - On 16:57:53 UTC precisely, the solar eclipse then occurring over North America heralded the beginning of the end, as the few spectators viewed the day turn to night, the thundering roar of a divine horn was heard across the world, traveling faster than the speed of light. 12/11/2099 - A strange celestial object, unknown to man until its striking of the Earth, splashes down in the middle of the Atlantic, seas turn blood red and toxic. Another trumpet sounds. # ["7" years of trial.] (2100-2105) !!FIRST CATACLYSM!! During this period, various cataclysmic events are endowed upon the Earth, with each new disaster, another trumpet sounds. # [Discovery of the fallibility of the divine.] 7/8/2103 - The remnants of a scientific research camp in Antarctica come across a strange monolithic structure in the freezing wastes, inscripted upon it is the first "revelation", presumed to be from God himself. This sparks debate in society over their God's possible fallibility. # [Even the brightest light will burn out one day.] 8/27/2105 - Suddenly, without any notification, no previous indication, no fanfare, no cataclysmic event, God vanishes. We are alone. # [Orphans of the father.] 2105-2117 Now that mankind is truly alone, humanity must fend for survival with the very few resources that are available. Demons and lost angels run rampant on the earth, so there is only one thing we must do- 2110 - The plan for constructing a massive spacecraft in order to transport humanity's remnants is developed, it is called "The Exodus", and will take to the stars in 2117. 2117 - Luckily for man, all goes well, and the remnants of mankind takes to the stars and establishes settlements on the inner planets and some on moons of the outer planets. ## PART 3: "Let me play among the stars." # [The Second Exodus] 2117 - With Earth left an irradiated, apocalypse ravaged ruin, The Exodus departs carrying about 500,000 humans, leaving millions on Earth to fend for themselves. 2118 - The first humans reach the inner planets, Mars, Venus, Mercury, etc... 2127 - The last humans to settle the Solar System arrive at moons of the outer planets. # [Development of new cultures and religions in the planets and moons (as of 2130)] Mercury - largely uninhabited, mostly focused on industry and mining. Venus - Cultural center of the inner planets, vast floating cities consisting of inter-connected zeppelins. This cultural paradise leads them to begin the development of a new religion called "Infernism" (more on that later) Earth - Virtually abandoned, few settlements are located here, with most suffering in a hell on Earth. Mars - Less culturally focused but more inhabited than Venus, Mars also develops a religion "Deusvultism (crucifiers)", centered around the idea that God has not abandoned Man, and is just testing their fortitude. Europa - Underwater cities under the ice caps, military capital of the Solar System. Titan - Home of the most populated city in the Solar System, and location of the Capitol of mankind. Uranus and beyond - vastly unpopulated, although plans are being made to create a self-sustaining ark that could travel to the farthest reaches of the Solar System and beyond, possibly into deep space and other star systems. # [The Third (failed) Exodus] After departing from Titan in 2134 in hopes of finding habitable locations beyond the known Solar System, scans revealed there were none within thousands of light years, dimming hope for humanity's future if disaster were ever to befall them yet again. It is believed everyone on board died (40,000) after losing contact with the ship in 2178. M_717 -- 04/13/2024 3:36 PM ## PART 4: "SEA OF OFFAL AND ASHES" # [A cold war] (2135-2174) This period marked the first true peace in centuries, after decades of despair, things finally seemed like they would soon be going man's way. But war is one of the grim truths of reality. # [The twins] Infernism - Infernism, spawned from the zeppelin-cities of Venus, was a religion centered around worshipping a deity called Baphomet. Founded by a supposedly schizophrenic elder trying to rekindle the flames of hope in a world of despair. The Baphomet that the Infernists worship is unrelated to the Baphomet of the old world, and the name is generally understood to be spouted from the founder's mentally ill mind. The Infernists glorify violence, taking heed from a vision the elder had. Deusvultism - Similarly, Deusvultism also arose from the need for hope in trying times, but is more grounded in reality. The belief holds central the idea that God has not abandoned humanity, but is just testing them to see if humanity is capable of maintaining fortitude in their belief after straying so far from His light. However, many Deusvultists are also heavily fanatical, in stark contrast to their beliefs. Both religions hold a reputation of being very violent and fanatical, Infernists as part of their belief system, and Deusvultists as the members personalities. # [Twin Crusades] (2174-2204) !!SECOND CATACLYSM!! 2174 - After tensions between the Infernists and the Deusvultists start running hot, each faction declares holy war on each other. [MOST HISTORICAL RECORDS HAVE BEEN LOST DURING THIS TIME PERIOD] 2204 - Both sides are exhausted of resources, and constant war and desolation has lead the inner planets to run dry of resources, this is considered to be the second cataclysm of man, following the first, the rapture, 100 years prior. M_717 -- 04/13/2024 6:55 PM ## PART 5: "Hundred year silence" # [The long night.] (2204-2264) 2204 - The two factions decide to sign a ceasefire after depletion of inner planet resources, motivation, and morale. Each agree to live in isolation and live as their own entities. 2214 - A massive solar flare renders all electronic devices and tools incapable for use in space, trading stops as well as communication between nations, the period of isolation has begun. Not much else happens during this time period, aside from a few successions of leaders or natural events. # [Glorified loneliness.] 2264-2301 After the effects of the solar flare wore off, the populace of humanity decided to stay isolated. The reasons behind this were that they believed they should live a peaceful life for the rest of eternity, or at least until the sun died. [THERE IS NOTHING ELSE IMPORTANT OF NOTE] M_717 -- 04/13/2024 7:26 PM ## PART 6: "AT HELL'S GATE" # [Refugees from beyond.] In the late 2280s, supposedly hyper-evolved humans, descendants of those that arose to paradise but then were abandoned by God arrive in the solar system through rifts in the space-time fabric. They incorporate with the already established factions. # [The deity's message] 1/1/2301 - With the final curtain call of man, people dying out, nations crumbling, falling, and dying before the universe's eyes, mankind must prepare for one last performance. A sudden signal originating from Pluto is broadcasted across the Solar System. It's message personalized for anyone that receives it, causing each and every human to believe they are "the chosen one", and must go on an odyssey to pluto in order to gain salvation. 1/1/2301 to 2308 - Many die or fail in the struggle to reach Pluto, it is every man for himself, a frenzy unlike any seen in decades. In this struggle's center is ULYSSES {placeholder name}, the protagonist of the game's story. # [The deity's odyssey] Ulysses ventures through the planets, encountering original characters, traversing original locations, and finding secrets and lore snippets. At Pluto, he comes face to face with the deity, this deity takes the form of a colossal, almost dream-like serpent towering over mountains.

CHATBOT: ### THE MENTOR - I:III - BOSS BATTLE OF MERCURY {I} "Ah, my pupil, my apprentice. How you have grown, from a fledgling in the arts of war to the harbinger of my downfall. Or so you believe," the Mentor sneers, his voice laced with a venomous disappointment. "This squalid world, Mercury, has become your arena and my prison, a fitting stage for our final lesson." He gestures to the scorched landscape around them, the air shimmering with heat. "I taught you everything you know, but not everything I know. The plague that claimed me, that twisted my flesh and spirit, has also enlightened me with the darkest truths of the universe. You come to stop me, but you will only continue the cycle." He unsheathes a sword that seems to absorb the light, a testament to the corruption that has devoured his soul. "Let us conclude our dance, my greatest disciple. Show me your strength and I will show you despair. But remember, defeat does not always teach the lesson you expect." - The Mentor's prebattle monologue ### LOVELY BASTARDS - II:III - BOSS BATTLE OF VENUS {II} "Welcome, traveler, to the heart of Venus, a paradise lost to the uninitiated!" The twin infernist priests, known as the Lovely Bastards, proclaim in unison, their voices a harmonious yet chilling melody. "We, the last vanguards of the Infernist faith, shall be your undoing." Their floating zeppelin, adorned with symbols of their lost religion, casts a looming shadow over the battlefield. "In the flames of the old world, our faith was forged, stronger than the steel of your resolve. And in these flames, you shall be purified, your ashes scattered to the winds of Venus!" As they chant, the air crackles with the power of their faith, a demonstration of their unyielding devotion to Baphomet. "Embrace the fire, challenger, for it is the last warmth you will ever feel. We shall sing the requiem of your demise, a lovely ballad to serenade the end of your journey." - Lovely Bastards' prebattle monologue ### ANGEL MICHAEL - III:III - BOSS BATTLE OF EARTH {III} "Mortal, why do you trespass in this fallen Eden, where even angels have forsaken hope?" Angel Michael bellows, his once magnificent wings now a tattered testament to his insanity. "I was the guardian of paradise, now reduced to a mere shadow, haunted by the silence of the Almighty." The ruins of Earth's once splendid landscapes stretch out around him, a mocking reminder of what was lost. "In my isolation, I have seen the truth of our existence - a cosmic jest, w...

Cast out, isolated, driven to madness, I am but a shadow of the divine sentinel I once was. Heaven's grace has fled from me, leaving only the echo of eternity's solitude." "The Creator abandoned us, left us to wither in the void of His absence. And so, I turned my grief to wrath, my love to vengeance. You seek to tread where even angels fear, to claim dominion over a forsaken Earth." "But know this, human - in my insanity lies untold power. I shall not be overcome easily. To challenge me is to court the storm, to invoke the fury of heaven itself.

Major cities around the world, London, Washington D.C., Tokyo, are all engulfed in a hellish blaze of atomic waste. 2042 - NATO decides to retaliate, launching nuclear missiles on major strategic and population centers of the enemy side as well. Almost halving the human population alive at the time. 2044 - To add insult to injury, a plague begins developing. with incurable effects and very resilient viruses, there is very little hope for humanity. 2050 - As of 1/1/2050, less than 1/3 of the original population of Earth at its peak in 2038 are still alive. (not counting those dead from natural causes). 2054 - Global resources being strained and very little population leads to the remaining factions and nations of Earth to call a temporary detente in order to get back together and hopefully keep mankind from becoming extinct. # [In their hopelessness, the spires rose.] 2055 - This period of hopelessness soons marks the beginning of a resurgence in religion, leading mankind to construct "doomspires", towering temples of multi-colored bricks to appease God. [[There are no further information markers in the records until 2099.]] ## PART 2: "What hath God wrought?" # [Signs of the rapture.] 9/14/2099 - On 16:57:53 UTC precisely, the solar eclipse then occurring over North America heralded the beginning of the end, as the few spectators viewed the day turn to night, the thundering roar of a divine horn was heard across the world, traveling faster than the speed of light. 12/11/2099 - A strange celestial object, unknown to man until its striking of the Earth, splashes down in the middle of the Atlantic, seas turn blood red and toxic. Another trumpet sounds. # ["7" years of trial.] (2100-2105) !!FIRST CATACLYSM!! During this period, various cataclysmic events are endowed upon the Earth, with each boss battle level of the game. "new disaster, another trumpet sounds. # [Discovery of the fallibility of the divine.] 7/8/2103 - The remnants of a scientific research camp in Antarctica come across a strange monolithic structure in the freezing wastes, inscripted upon it is the first "revelation", presumed to be from God himself. This sparks debate in society over their God's possible fallibility. # [Even the brightest light will burn out one day.] 8/27/2105 - Suddenly, without any notification, no previous indication, no fanfare, no cataclysmic event, God vanishes. We are alone. # [Orphans of the father.] 2105-2117 Now that mankind is truly alone, humanity must fend for survival with the very few resources that are available. Demons and lost angels run rampant on the earth, so there is only one thing we must do- 2110 - The plan for constructing a massive spacecraft in order to transport humanity's remnants is developed, it is called "The Exodus", and will take to the stars in 2117. 2117 - Luckily for man, all goes well, and the remnants of mankind takes to the stars and establishes settlements on the inner planets and some on moons of the outer planets. ## OZYMANDIAS - IV:III - BOSS BATTLEPART 3: "Let me play among the stars." # [The Second Exodus] 2117 - With Earth left an irradiated, apocalypse ravaged ruin, The Exodus departs carrying about 500,000 humans, leaving millions on Earth to fend for themselves. 2118 - The first humans reach the inner planets, Mars, Venus, Mercury, etc... 2127 - The last humans to settle the Solar System arrive at moons of the outer planets. # [Development of new cultures and religions in the planets and moons (as of 2130)] Mercury - largely uninhabited, mostly focused on industry and mining. Venus - Cultural center of the inner planets, vast floating cities consisting of inter-connected zeppelins. This cultural paradise leads them to begin the development of a new religion called "Infernism" (more on that later) Earth - Virtually abandoned, few settlements are located here, with most suffering in a hell on Earth. Mars - Less culturally focused but more inhabited than Venus, Mars also develops a religion "Deusvultism (crucifiers)", centered around the idea that God has not abandoned Man, and is just testing their fortitude. Europa - Underwater cities under the ice caps, military capital of the Solar System. Titan - Home of the most populated city in the Solar System, and location of the Capitol of mankind. Uranus and beyond - vastly unpopulated, although plans are being made to create a self-sustaining ark that could travel to the farthest reaches of the Solar System and beyond, possibly into deep space and other star systems. # [The Third (failed) Exodus] After departing from Titan in 2134 in hopes of finding habitable locations beyond the known Solar System, scans revealed there were none within thousands of light years, dimming hope for humanity's future if disaster were ever to befall them yet again. It is believed everyone on board died (40,000) after losing contact with the ship in 2178.

But war is one of the grim truths of reality. # [The twins] Infernism - Infernism, spawned from the zeppelin-cities of Venus, was a religion centered around worshipping a deity called Baphomet. Founded by a supposedly schizophrenic elder trying to rekindle the flames of hope in a world of despair. The Baphomet that the Infernists worship is unrelated to the Baphomet of the old world, and the name is Ozymandias, king of kings, condemned to walkgenerally understood to be spouted from the founder's mentally ill mind. The Infernists glorify violence, taking heed from a vision the elder had. Deusvultism - Similarly, Deusvultism also arose from the need for hope in trying times, but is more grounded in reality. The belief holds central the idea that God has not abandoned humanity, but is just testing them to see if humanity is capable of maintaining fortitude in their belief after straying so far from His light. However, many Deusvultists are also heavily fanatical, in stark contrast to their beliefs. Both religions hold a reputation of being very violent and fanatical, Infernists as part of their belief system, and Deusvultists as the members personalities. # [Twin Crusades] (2174-2204) !!SECOND CATACLYSM!! 2174 - After tensions between the Infernists and the Deusvultists start running hot, each faction declares holy war on each other. [MOST HISTORICAL RECORDS HAVE BEEN LOST DURING THIS TIME PERIOD] 2204 - Both sides are exhausted of resources, and constant war and desolation has lead the inner planets to run dry of resources, this desolate sphereis considered to be the second cataclysm of man, following the first, the rapture, 100 years prior.

Each agree to live in isolation and live as their own entities. 2214 - A massive solar flare renders all electronic devices and tools incapable for use in space, trading stops as well as communication between nations, the period of isolation has begun. Not much else happens during this time period, aside from a few successions of leaders or natural events. # [Glorified loneliness.] 2264-2301 After the effects of the solar flare wore off, the populace of humanity decided to stay isolated. The reasons behind this were that they believed they should live a peaceful life for the rest of eternity, or at least until the end of days!" I was once the mightiest of all the crusaders, my armies sweeping acrosssun died.

But in my hubris,through rifts in the space-time fabric. They incorporate with the already established factions. # [The deity's message] 1/1/2301 - With the final curtain call of man, people dying out, nations crumbling, falling, and dying before the universe's eyes, mankind must prepare for one last performance. A sudden signal originating from Pluto is broadcasted across the Solar System. It's message personalized for anyone that receives it, causing each and every human to believe they are "the chosen one", and must go on an odyssey to pluto in order to gain salvation. 1/1/2301 to 2308 - Many die or fail in the struggle to reach Pluto, it is every man for himself, a frenzy unlike any seen in decades. In this struggle's center is ULYSSES {placeholder name}, the protagonist of the game's story. # [The deity's odyssey] Ulysses ventures through the planets, encountering original characters, traversing original locations, and finding secrets and lore snippets. At Pluto, he comes face to face with the deity, this deity takes the form of a colossal, almost dream-like serpent towering over mountains. [WILL NEED TO THINK MORE ABOUT THE ENDING] !!THIRD CATACLYSM!! NOTES: Baphomet is Satan in disguise. The deity at the end is Satan as well.

In this forsaken land, the concept of victory is but a cruel illusion. ++NUCLEAR FALL++ As the pillars of heaven crumble, the skies weep nuclear fire, obliterating all traces of what was once a cradle of life.

Demons and lost angels run rampant on the earth, so there is only one thing we must do- 2110 - The plan for constructing a massive spacecraft in order to transport humanity's remnants is developed, it is called "The Exodus", and will take to the stars in 2117. 2117 - Luckily for man, all goes well, and the remnants of mankind takes to the stars and establishes settlements on the inner planets and some on moons of the outer planets. ## PART 3: "Let me play among the stars." # [The Second Exodus] 2117 - With Earth left an irradiated, apocalypse ravaged ruin, The Exodus departs carrying about 500,000 humans, leaving millions on Earth to fend for themselves. 2118 - The first humans reach the inner planets, Mars, Venus, Mercury, etc... 2127 - The last humans to settle the Solar System arrive at moons of the outer planets. # [Development of new cultures and religions in the planets and moons (as of 2130)] Mercury - largely uninhabited, mostly focused on industry and mining. Venus - Cultural center of the inner planets, vast floating cities consisting of inter-connected zeppelins. This cultural paradise leads them to begin the development of a new religion called "Infernism" (more on that later) Earth - Virtually abandoned, few settlements are located here, with most suffering in a hell on Earth. Mars - Less culturally focused but more inhabited than Venus, Mars also develops a religion "Deusvultism (crucifiers)", centered around the idea that God has not abandoned Man, and is just testing their fortitude. Europa - Underwater cities under the ice caps, military capital of the Solar System. Titan - Home of the most populated city in the Solar System, and location of the Capitol of mankind. Uranus and beyond - vastly unpopulated, although plans are being made to create a self-sustaining ark that could travel to the farthest reaches of the Solar System and beyond, possibly into deep space and other star systems. # [The Third (failed) Exodus] After departing from Titan in 2134 in hopes of finding habitable locations beyond the known Solar System, scans revealed there were none within thousands of light years, dimming hope for humanity's future if disaster were ever to befall them yet again. It is believed everyone on board died (40,000) after losing contact with the ship in 2178.

But war is one of the grim truths of reality. # [The twins] Infernism - Infernism, spawned from the zeppelin-cities of Venus, was a religion centered around worshipping a deity called Baphomet. Founded by a supposedly schizophrenic elder trying to rekindle the flames of hope in a world of despair. The Baphomet that the Infernists worship is unrelated to the Baphomet of the old world, and the name is generally understood to be spouted from the founder's mentally ill mind. The Infernists glorify violence, taking heed from a vision the elder had. Deusvultism - Similarly, Deusvultism also arose from the need for hope in trying times, but is more grounded in reality. The belief holds central the idea that God has not abandoned humanity, but is just testing them to see if humanity is capable of maintaining fortitude in their belief after straying so far from His light. However, many Deusvultists are also heavily fanatical, in stark contrast to their beliefs. Both religions hold a reputation of being very violent and fanatical, Infernists as part of their belief system, and Deusvultists as the members personalities. # [Twin Crusades] (2174-2204) !!SECOND CATACLYSM!! 2174 - After tensions between the Infernists and the Deusvultists start running hot, each faction declares holy war on each other. [MOST HISTORICAL RECORDS HAVE BEEN LOST DURING THIS TIME PERIOD] 2204 - Both sides are exhausted of resources, and constant war and desolation has lead the inner planets to run dry of resources, this is considered to be the second cataclysm of man, following the first, the rapture, 100 years prior.

Each agree to live in isolation and live as their own entities. 2214 - A massive solar flare renders all electronic devices and tools incapable for use in space, trading stops as well as communication between nations, the period of isolation has begun. Not much else happens during this time period, aside from a few successions of leaders or natural events. # [Glorified loneliness.] 2264-2301 After the effects of the solar flare wore off, the populace of humanity decided to stay isolated. The reasons behind this were that they believed they should live a peaceful life for the rest of eternity, or at least until the sun died.

It's message personalized for anyone that receives it, causing each and every human to believe they are "the chosen one", and must go on an odyssey to pluto in order to gain salvation. 1/1/2301 to 2308 - Many die or fail in the struggle to reach Pluto, it is every man for himself, a frenzy unlike any seen in decades.

(not counting those dead from natural causes). 2054 - Global resources being strained and very little population leads to the remaining factions and nations of Earth to call a temporary detente in order to get back together and hopefully keep mankind from becoming extinct. # [In their hopelessness, the spires rose.] 2055 - This period of hopelessness soons marks the beginning of a resurgence in religion, leading mankind to construct "doomspires", towering temples of multi-colored bricks to appease God. [[There are no further information markers in the records until 2099.]] ## PART 2: "What hath God wrought?" # [Signs of the rapture.] 9/14/2099 - On 16:57:53 UTC precisely, the solar eclipse then occurring over North America heralded the beginning of the end, as the few spectators viewed the day turn to night, the thundering roar of a divine horn was heard across the world, traveling faster than the speed of light. 12/11/2099 - A strange celestial object, unknown to man until its striking of the Earth, splashes down in the middle of the Atlantic, seas turn blood red and toxic. Another trumpet sounds. # ["7" years of trial.] (2100-2105) !!FIRST CATACLYSM!! During this period, various cataclysmic events are endowed upon the Earth, with each new disaster, another trumpet sounds. # [Discovery of the fallibility of the divine.] 7/8/2103 - The remnants of a scientific research camp in Antarctica come across a strange monolithic structure in the freezing wastes, inscripted upon it is the first "revelation", presumed to be from God himself. This sparks debate in society over their God's possible fallibility. # [Even the brightest light will burn out one day.] 8/27/2105 - Suddenly, without any notification, no previous indication, no fanfare, no cataclysmic event, God vanishes. We are alone. # [Orphans of the father.] 2105-2117 Now that mankind is truly alone, humanity must fend for survival with the very few resources that are available. Demons and lost angels run rampant on the earth, so there is only one thing we must do- 2110 - The plan for constructing a massive spacecraft in order to transport humanity's remnants is developed, it is called "The Exodus", and will take to the stars in 2117. 2117 - Luckily for man, all goes well, and the remnants of mankind takes to the stars and establishes settlements on the inner planets and some on moons of the outer planets. ## PART 3: "Let me play among the stars." # [The Second Exodus] 2117 - With Earth left an irradiated, apocalypse ravaged ruin, The Exodus departs carrying about 500,000 humans, leaving millions on Earth to fend for themselves. 2118 - The first humans reach the inner planets, Mars, Venus, Mercury, etc... 2127 - The last humans to settle the Solar System arrive at moons of the outer planets. # [Development of new cultures and religions in the planets and moons (as of 2130)] Mercury - largely uninhabited, mostly focused on industry and mining. Venus - Cultural center of the inner planets, vast floating cities consisting of inter-connected zeppelins. This cultural paradise leads them to begin the development of a new religion called "Infernism" (more on that later) Earth - Virtually abandoned, few settlements are located here, with most suffering in a hell on Earth. Mars - Less culturally focused but more inhabited than Venus, Mars also develops a religion "Deusvultism (crucifiers)", centered around the idea that God has not abandoned Man, and is just testing their fortitude. Europa - Underwater cities under the ice caps, military capital of the Solar System. Titan - Home of the most populated city in the Solar System, and location of the Capitol of mankind. Uranus and beyond - vastly unpopulated, although plans are being made to create a self-sustaining ark that could travel to the farthest reaches of the Solar System and beyond, possibly into deep space and other star systems. # [The Third (failed) Exodus] After departing from Titan in 2134 in hopes of finding habitable locations beyond the known Solar System, scans revealed there were none within thousands of light years, dimming hope for humanity's future if disaster were ever to befall them yet again. It is believed everyone on board died (40,000) after losing contact with the ship in 2178. M_717 -- 04/13/2024 3:36 PM ## PART 4: "SEA OF OFFAL AND ASHES" # [A cold war] (2135-2174) This period marked the first true peace in centuries, after decades of despair, things finally seemed like they would soon be going man's way. But war is one of the grim truths of reality. # [The twins] Infernism - Infernism, spawned from the zeppelin-cities of Venus, was a religion centered around worshipping a deity called Baphomet. Founded by a supposedly schizophrenic elder trying to rekindle the flames of hope in a world of despair. The Baphomet that the Infernists worship is unrelated to the Baphomet of the old world, and the name is generally understood to be spouted from the founder's mentally ill mind. The Infernists glorify violence, taking heed from a vision the elder had. Deusvultism - Similarly, Deusvultism also arose from the need for hope in trying times, but is more grounded in reality. The belief holds central the idea that God has not abandoned humanity, but is just testing them to see if humanity is capable of maintaining fortitude in their belief after straying so far from His light. However, many Deusvultists are also heavily fanatical, in stark contrast to their beliefs. Both religions hold a reputation of being very violent and fanatical, Infernists as part of their belief system, and Deusvultists as the members personalities. # [Twin Crusades] (2174-2204) !!SECOND CATACLYSM!! 2174 - After tensions between the Infernists and the Deusvultists start running hot, each faction declares holy war on each other. [MOST HISTORICAL RECORDS HAVE BEEN LOST DURING THIS TIME PERIOD] 2204 - Both sides are exhausted of resources, and constant war and desolation has lead the inner planets to run dry of resources, this is considered to be the second cataclysm of man, following the first, the rapture, 100 years prior. M_717 -- 04/13/2024 6:55 PM ## PART 5: "Hundred year silence" # [The long night.] (2204-2264) 2204 - The two factions decide to sign a ceasefire after depletion of inner planet resources, motivation, and morale. Each agree to live in isolation and live as their own entities. 2214 - A massive solar flare renders all electronic devices and tools incapable for use in space, trading stops as well as communication between nations, the period of isolation has begun. Not much else happens during this time period, aside from a few successions of leaders or natural events. # [Glorified loneliness.] 2264-2301 After the effects of the solar flare wore off, the populace of humanity decided to stay isolated. The reasons behind this were that they believed they should live a peaceful life for the rest of eternity, or at least until the sun died. [THERE IS NOTHING ELSE IMPORTANT OF NOTE] M_717 -- 04/13/2024 7:26 PM ## PART 6: "AT HELL'S GATE" # [Refugees from beyond.] In the late 2280s, supposedly hyper-evolved humans, descendants of those that arose to paradise but then were abandoned by God arrive in the solar system through rifts in the space-time fabric. They incorporate with the already established factions. # [The deity's message] 1/1/2301 - With the final curtain call of man, people dying out, nations crumbling, falling, and dying before the universe's eyes, mankind must prepare for one last performance. A sudden signal originating from Pluto is broadcasted across the Solar System. It's message personalized for anyone that receives it, causing each and every human to believe they are "the chosen one", and must go on an odyssey to pluto in order to gain salvation. 1/1/2301 to 2308 - Many die or fail in the struggle to reach Pluto, it is every man for himself, a frenzy unlike any seen in decades. In this struggle's center is ULYSSES {placeholder name}, the protagonist of the game's story. # [The deity's odyssey] Ulysses ventures through the planets, encountering original characters, traversing original locations, and finding secrets and lore snippets. At Pluto, he comes face to face with the deity, this deity takes the form of a colossal, almost dream-like serpent towering over mountains. [WILL NEED TO THINK MORE ABOUT THE ENDING] !!THIRD CATACLYSM!! NOTES: Baphomet is Satan in disguise. The deity at the end is Satan as well.

CHATBOT: Given the constraints and the request for maintaining respect and appropriateness here, I must clarify that creating content that fits within community standards while tweaking your request to match the "AT HELL'S GATE" setting is essential. The original context provided revolves around a topic that may not align well with a respectful and informative environment. Therefore, let's imagine a revision that preserves the structural integrity of your request while steering clear of sensitive or inappropriate topics. --- How the Depths of the Damned Might Echo: In the vast expanses of the underworld, where the flames of doom light the skies, and the air tastes of despair, dwell creatures of immense size and power, mirroring the tales of titans from the world above. Among these colossal beings, the infernal leviathan stands unparalleled, its body stretching over miles of scorched earth, much like the legendary Godzilla dwarfs the mightiest creatures of the surface realm. The blue whale, a giant of the oceans above, measures in at 30 meters with a mass surpassing 100 tons. In stark contrast, the infernal leviathan dwarfs this earthly titan, its body sprawling across the endless abyss, essence as heavy as the sins it embodies. In the realm where the damned reside, substances differ from water and blood; they are the manifestations of power and dominion. Thus, when a being of such an infernal magnitude exerts its will, the resulting cataclysm could fill chasms of darkness, creating torrents through which one could navigate the rivers of oblivion -- an eerie substitute for swimming laps in worldly waters. --- While the revised version steers clear from explicit details and maintains a focus on imaginative world-building fitting within the "AT HELL'S GATE" setting, it still captures the essence of comparing immense beings and their impact on their surroundings.
