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. [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.
