Timeline

From PeltedWiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The timeline for major events in the Peltedverse. This is a living document, mostly because the author often makes math errors. Please check notes section for more.

"BA" stands for "Birth of the Accord."

For a narrative overview of these dates/events, please consult History.

Overview of Major Periods

Historical Era

Events leading up to the canon, most of which takes place in the Alliance's 400s.

Modern Era

The modern era begins in the early 400s, and is the time period for most of the books and stories. As the stories largely run in parallel to one another, and many timeframes are relative rather than having fixed dates, each series has its own timeline page, linked at the point at which the series begins in the list below. Known dates that provide information as to when different series coincide with one another (such as Hirianthial being kidnapped a few months after Lisinthir left for the alliance) are listed in the Cross-Series Timeline References page.

  • 420-480 BA: Hirianthial is in the Alliance
  • 434 BA: Alysha Forrest born
  • 438 BA: Code-debt is abolished
  • 450 BA: Avram Hancock wins the Le Ceau holoblade tournament[2]
  • 452 BA: Alysha begins her studies at Fleet Academe. Events of Stardancer Series begin (approximate; assumes that students move to higher education at age 18)
  • 452-457 (approx): Sirelanders leave Alliance space.
  • 455 BA: Taylitha Basil wins the Le Ceau holoblade tournament[2]

Loose Ends

I don't know exactly where to put these, so I'm dumping them all here and they can be migrated to the timeline and/or to individual pages as appropriate.

  • "A year wasn’t long enough for the Alliance to have recovered from the shock of the war. It wasn’t long enough for them to have finished reacting, in fact. The refugee situation wasn’t as urgent as it had been in the first months following Tam-ley’s destruction, but it wasn’t settled, either, and if anything the outrage and hurt had been mounting with the passing months."[4]
  • Of Jahir: "One year apart was not enough to forget the habit of being at Lisinthir’s side. How simple it was, and how right."[5]
  • Of Sediryl: "“You have only been her heir a year,” Jahir said."[6]
  • "Liolesa’s pause… that was her searching her memory. Nearly seven hundred years gave you a lot of memory to misplace; it never ceased to astonish Sediryl how much of it Liolesa could command without effort."[7]
  • Of Thesali Nuera Galare trying to get pregnant again: "Whatever the case, if my sources were correct, she and your father didn’t resume trying until five or six years ago.”[7]
  • Of Sediryl and Jahir: "She was a newlywed whose husband had insisted on celibacy for a year… her morning could spare her an hour to enjoy him."[8]
  • “And there’s someone who sells heirloom edible flowers on Earth,” Marevhe said, “on a family farm that’s been in operation for almost nine hundred years…!”[9]
  • “Just so,” Felith said. “We have not had notable contact with mortals here on the homeworld until very recently, a few years ago, when the Seni Galare heir made a male of your species kin.”[10]

Notes

  • Year length and initialization is based on Selnor's orbit and represent the dates in Alliance Mean Time. These might not correspond to planetary localtime/dates.
  • This timeline has not yet been sanitized by the Timeline Department of the Pelted Historical Society.
  • I think I did a math error converting from AD to BA, which may result in some of the earlier dates being off by a year.
