, Fri 1 Dec 11:53
When exactly were Shevat and Solaris(by that I mean Etrenank) built and by who. I know that shevat was a city ontop of the tower of babel or something, and I think Zephyr built it?? I don't know for sure, that's why I'm asking. Obviously it was before 500 years ago cause that was when the war between them took place. So I am guessing sometime between 4000 years ago and 500 years ago. And what else happened in that time period too.

You just reminded me that I need to finish my timeline. Thanks! ^_^
Okay, Solaris was raised to the sky in 9164 (a little over 400 years before the Solaris/Nisan war). Shevat was built in 9226 on top of Babel Tower, using the generator there (I have a page that's more specific on Guardian Angels).
[Edit - it says Solaris was built that year. I take it to mean that it went to the sky then, but it doesn't say that specifically. I'd have to get a little farther with my translation of this part before I can give you the specifics.]
Ja mata.

Out of curiosity, does the XG Perfect Works book(which I assume you are getting your XG timeline dates from) have anything on the whole Diabolos conflict? It was extremely vague in the game and seemed like it was just thrown in there as a reason for Solaris and Shevat to stop fighting and be at their standstill in the beginning of the game. Just wondering if there's any more detail there.

Yes, the PW has several comments on the Diablos war -- very extensive ones, in some cases. Some are in Grahf's profile (which go more into specifics than the others), others are notes beneath the timelines, and there's a page or two dedicated to the "[Period] of Destruction".
Mainly, it was Grahf's attempt to destroy the ones responsible for Sophia's death (the Gazel), and then destroy the world in an attempt to prevent himself and Elly from being reborn again. To achieve this he reawakened what we know of as the Pillars of Deus to carry this out, and there are some notes that imply he also had other forces as well, which is quite possible... He was stopped by Roni, Rene, and Krelian, I believe, but not before he killed Rene and the Gazel Ministers.
Around this time he made a deal with Miang, and later, he also made a deal with Krelian, which is why he was so helpful to their plans for Elly, even when it meant harming her. The other sections go into more detail about the war itself, but I'm still busy going over the Fatima family and the Nisan-Aveh stuff.
Ja mata.

So is Diablos itself the four pillars like I mentioned in another post or do you think it's something else. Clearly the pillars were active during this time and I always assumed they were the same thing but I'm interested to know if someone has another theory on this.

It seems to be a consensus among the people I translate with that the Diablos forces were both Grahf (in his gear), and the Four Pillars. There were others involved, but these were the four that caused such widespread destruction. I wish I had more specifics though - I haven't heard from that group in a while, and it's always faster to translate with people helping. ^_^
Ja mata.

Thanks for that Myaru.
Well EC looks like I was mostly right but not completely since I left out Grahf in that other thread.

Whoa!! The Diabolos conflict was major in Grafh and the gazel.And a lot more. The anima relics were discovered at this tume. The gazel lost their bodies. The world was almost destroyed. Millions died. Deus's pillars awoke. The Gazel began a quest to resurrect Deys after this. I think they were more concern with power before, they sold out Miang, remember. After lossing their bodies then they wanted to resurrect Deys. Nimrod was destroyed. Solaris created Kislev. The Diabolos period was very important.
Have a rainy day!

Nimrod is Krelian's home town I think Lacan and Sophia grew up there too but I'm not 100% sure. It would probably be close to Nisan.
One theory I have is that it got trashed in that period possibly by Grahf and later rebuilt as Aveh. Of course this is purely speculative here so dont listen to a word I say because I'm really quite mad

Just so you dont get the timelines confused. Xeno happens in 9999 years after Eldridge's crash. Just becasue Solaris and Shevat were lifted into sky in 9,000 numbers doesnt mean it happened thousands of years ago.
Have a rainy day!
