Pre-History (spoiler zone)
Guide begins in the Late Pleistocene. Other pre-human events are implied. An outline of these are here.
Before the Fall
The chronology of events before the Fall falls into two storylines; that of Brent / Bahati / Xeghita / Arlette, and that of Watcher / Ruzhena. These storylines cross over at various points. For comparison purposes, each appears on a separate web page. A relevant quote is provided to help place each piece.
The dates for Brent / Bahati / Xeghita / Arlette can be checked with little difficulty, as they are diarised. The chapter order is:
- Cradle Hood
- BVI (British Virgin Islands)
- Poulbots
- Near Earth Object
- Xhenogie Corp
- Checking Service
- Bahati’s Journal
- Back in NYC
- Rapture
- Welcome to Earth
As both Watcher and Ruzhena work for intelligence agencies their relevant chronologies are less precise. Chronologies other than the author’s view are possible. Watcher / Ruzhena’s chapter order is:
- Peer Pressure
- Observer Effect
- Flicker
- Émetteur Passif
- Keeping in Touch
- Wahchinksapa
- The Unveiling
Post Apocalyptic Events
The bulk of Guide is set in post-apocalyptic times. A chapter chronology is provided so that the sequence of events can be seen better. For those who want to work out something more precise, extracts referring to date / time etc are appended to the chapter chronology
