Lore question - Yunas13 - 01-09-2014

I'm not a player of 1.0 but a 2.0 one. The idea I have is that 3 friends leave their tiny village to train in Gridania and Ul'dah. A Conjurer and lancer and a swordsman. They meet a year or few years later. I know from what my friends tell me that between 1.0 and 2.0 is 5 years. I don't want to mess up the lore. Exactly, how many years lore-wise for my idea to work? Any advice would be amazing! Thank you so much!

I'm so happy to be here and I hope to make many friends! Smile

Yes, I believe 5 years is the estimate between 1.0 and 2.0.

"Seventh Umbral Era

1572


- Urangier and Wandering Minstrel give hopes of a New Era.
- Nael van Darnus defeated at Rivenroad.
- Lesser moon Dalamud begins falling towards Eorzea. - The Lambs of Dalamud, a doomsday cult, claims Dalamud will fall upon Eorzea. It is said they believed the descent required human sacrafices, and considered anyone outside the cult to be heathens. They are known to have at least one priest and many warrior followers, and often try to lure people from the grand cities by pretending to be concerned relativs in search of kidnapped daughters. Once isolated, they attempt to sacrifice their victims.
- A large battle between Eorzea's Grand Companies and The VIIth Legion breaks out on Certeneau Flatts as Dalamud reaches it's final moments of descent.
- Dalamud breaks open to reveal Bahamut who had been slumbering inside. Now free, it begins to wreak havoc upon several sections of Eorzea (mainly The Black Shroud) - In the final moments of The Battle of Carteneau, Louisoix uses the power of Althyk, the Keeper to send the remaining heroes on the battlefield into a "rift" out of time to keep them away from harm until it was safe for them to return.

1577


- A Realm Reborn begins. "

This is cut from the timeline on the RPC website, which I believe came from the Lore Forums on the Lodestone.

Hope this helps Smile.
