 * The Witch Cult was founded by Petelgeuse Romanee-Conti and another unnamed individual.
 * Echidna met Roswaal A Mathers and saved his life.

 * Toska defeated Falgal, whereas Echidna slaughtered an army of silver dragons and made the remaining ones surrender.


 * Toska married Remina at an unknown time in the future. During the festivities, Puck set out, telling Beatrice that he would return once he found the one he was searching for. After that, Toska made a vow with Beatrice, telling her that he would one day repay his debt to her.

 * Ryuzu Meyer was brought to the Sanctuary by Echidna.
 * The Witch of Envy began her rampage, kickstarting the apocalyptical event known as the Great Calamity. Starting from an unknown date and unknown location, the Witch irrationally began destroying the world around her, collapsing most of the old civilizations and killing untold numbers of people. Her actions also permanently shifted the geography of the world.
 * The Great Sage Flugel, with the combined strengths of his apprentice Shaula, the Divine Dragon Volcanica, Alec Hoshin, and the first Sword Saint Reid Astrea, attempted to kill the rampaging Witch of Envy. However, because the Witch was unable to be slain, she was instead sealed away within the vast expanse of the Augria Sand Dunes in eastern Lugunica. Flugel took it upon himself to build the great Pleiades Watchtower and ensure that the Witch would never be freed again.
 * Sanctuary was assaulted by the Warlock of Melancholy, who was in pursuit of the Witch of Greed. However, the Witch was able to evoke a barrier in time to fend him off thanks to the sacrifice of Ryuzu Meyer, who sealed herself into a mana crystal as the barrier's core. Roswaal A Mathers suffered severe and crippling wounds during the face-off.
 * Echidna gave Beatrice a replica of her Book of Wisdom, made a contract by entrusting her the Forbidden Library, and told her to wait for someone suitable to inherit her knowledge dubbed "That person" in the case she didn't return.
 * Shortly after, Beatrice linked the Forbidden Library to Roswaal's mansion through Door Crossing and locked herself inside it. She then noticed later that her Book of Wisdom stopped recording her future for unknown reasons.


 * Echidna began to experiment with immortality with the Ryuzu Meyer copies. The very first and mentally broken Ryuzu copy, named Sphinx, was involuntarily created, as Echidna failed the first attempt of transferring her soul into a vessel. Sphinx then later somehow managed to exit sanctuary while the barrier was up.


 * One by one, the Witches of Sin died off. Minerva went crazy in a trap and died, Carmilla was burned to death, Daphne withered away in the Augria Sand Dunes, Typhon drowned in Priestella, and Sekhmet died after falling from the Great Waterfall whilst fighting against Volcanica. Echidna collected all their souls and released them into her Sanctuary before she was ultimately sealed off in Sanctuary by Volcanica. Echidna died shortly thereafter.


 * Reid Astrea passed away due to old age. The Sword Reid was passed down to the next Sword Saint. Somehow, the Divine Protection of Sword Saint was created and passed down to the next Sword Saint.


 * The Great Sage Flugel ordered Shaula to protect the Pleiades Watchtower. Sometime later, Flugel entrusted Petelgeuse with a box containing the Witch Factor of Sloth.


 * Lugunica and its southern neighbour, the Empire of Vollachia, were once again at war. The King of Lugunica at the time, Farsale Lugunica, formed a covenant with the Divine Dragon Volcanica, bounding Volcanica to protect the kingdom from any and all external threats, thus leading to the end of the conflict.

 * Roswaal A Mathers managed to figure out the path to immortality.

Roughly 120 to 130 BA

 * Valga Cromwell was born.

Around 100 BA

 * The Sin Archbishop of Greed, accompanied by the Witch of Vainglory, attacked Elior Forest in search of the mysterious Seal deep within the woods.

The Radical Faction of the Witch Cult, present on Regulus' command, launched an attack simultaneously, further devastating the Elves. The assault ended when a young half-elf named Emilia froze the entire forest in a sudden uncontrolled rage. The forest, Emilia, and all of the remaining elves were left frozen in ice for nearly a century.


 * Petelgeuse Romanée-Conti took in the Witch Factor of Sloth and was therefore granted the title of the Sin Archbishop of Sloth.

48 to 39 BA

 * A near decade long civil war, straightforwardly named the Demi-Human War, began in the Kingdom of Lugunica between the long disadvantaged and discriminated against minority of Demi-Humans and the Human majority that dominated the affairs of the country. Initially starting as a conflict between the rebelling Demi-Human Alliance and the Royal Lugunican Government, the stalemate between the two and the growing animosity would eventually devolve into a guerilla-fought ethnic conflict, leading to untold numbers of soldiers and civilians being slaughtered.

 * Ricardo Welkin was born.

37 BA

 * At the Sword Saint Ceremony held in honor of Theresia's contributions in the war, Wilhelm Trias returned to “save” Theresia van Astrea from the potentially tainting life of being the Sword Saint. He proposed to her in the most Wilhelmian manner, a sword duel, of which he was victorious.


 * Wilhelm and Theresia married some time in the weeks following their duel and Gionis Lugunica absolved Theresia of her role as the Sword Saint, allowing her to put the sword aside.


 * Bordeaux Zellgef stepped down from his position as Captain of the Zellgef Squadron and promoted Wilhelm to the rank of the Squad's Captain.


 * A secret organization known as the Six Tongues was created by Bordeaux Zellgef. Orphe was employed in the organization soon after.

37-36 BA

 * Stride began a campaign of secretive movements against the Dragon Kingdom of Lugunica. At first in secret, as mentioned before, and then in earnest once the Sword Saint Theresia van Astrea was confirmed to be pregnant. The incident culminated in the summoning of the "Evil Dragon," in which the city of Picoutatte was nearly destroyed. The attack ended with the intervention of the Divine Dragon Volcanica for the first time in centuries. The event was remembered in history as the Subjugation of the Evil Dragon.


 * Veltol Astrea, Theresia's father, was killed by Carol Remendis, who was under the control of one of Stride's Ten Cursed Meteor Rings, during Stride's attack on the Astrea Manor. The pregnant Theresia was kidnapped and brought to Picoutatte alongside Carol.

 * Following Roswaal K Mathers' death, Roswaal L Mathers inherited the family name and was possessed by the original Roswaal A Mathers. The King held a ceremony in the Royal Castle in order to honor the deeds of Roswaal K Mathers.


 * In the following week after the aforementioned ceremony revolving around House Roswaal, Heinkel–with the help of Reinhard–managed to convince Marcos Gildark to rejoin the Royal Guard after the latter defected and formed a group known as The Brotherhood.


 * Felt was born around that time to a yet-unnamed mother and father.

14 BA

 * The Sword Saint –Theresia van Astrea– joined by a company of knights, was sent on an expedition to subjugate the Hakugei that had appeared in the country around that time. However, the mission ended catastrophically and Theresia was not among the few remaining survivors to return. This would later be remembered as The Great Expedition.


 * Reinhard van Astrea became the current generation's Sword Saint at the age of 5. His inheritance of the Divine Protection of the Sword Saint came at a rather unfortunate time, as the sudden transfer of power resulted in his grandmother and previous generation's Sword Saint losing her powers mid-battle with the White Whale, unintentionally leading to her death.


 * The infant daughter of Ford Lugunica, the brother of the 41st king, Randohal Lugunica, was kidnapped by thieves who had snuck into the castle undetected. The child was never recovered. Supposedly, an unknown individual within the elite Royal Guard had allowed the intruders to escape just as they were about to be caught. The incident and even the existence of the child was not publicly known, but the kidnapping of the royal baby would have major consequences within the internal society of the Royal Guards. It was one of few events not recorded in the Dragon Tablet.


 * Simultaneously with the events of The Great Expedition, Captain of the Royal Guard Wilhelm van Astrea led the search for the missing child of the Royal Family. The mission ended in failure.

12 BA

 * Petra Leyte was born.


 * Flam Remendis was born.


 * Grassis Remendis was born.

 * Annerose Miload was born on the same day of the Witch Cult's attack.


 * Grace Miload died right after giving birth to Annerose.

7 BA

 * Puck unfroze Emilia in Elior Forest and began to act as her friend and mentor.


 * The incident that would be known as the  “Day of Red Earth and Sky" occured when Melakuera, the reigning Great Spirit of Fire, attacked Elior Forest in search of the “half-witch” Emilia. Puck protected her and battled Melakuera. Melakuera lost the battle and perished, with Puck inheriting the title of the Great Spirit of Fire.


 * At around that time, the Imperial Selection Ceremony kicked off, as the 76th Emperor of Vollachia, Drizen Vollachia, wasn't fit to rule, and was subsequently scorched to death by the Yang Sword Vollachia. In the following months, his children battled and killed each other, with Vincent Abellux being the only survivor, thus becoming the 77th Emperor of the Vollachia Empire. Arakiya made a deal with Vincent, sparing Prisca's life. After Prisca was sent off to safety, Arakiya joined Vincent's faction.


 * Rommel was burned to death by the Yang Sword Vollachia.


 * Months before Vincent's victory, Abellux Mansion was attacked by the forces of rival claimant Lamia Godwin. There, Cecilus Segmunt made his name known to the world by singlehandedly slaughtering the entirety of Lamia's private army, called the Pruning Corps. Lamia was later killed by Prisca Benedict in a duel.


 * During the Battle for Abellux Mansion, Arakiya ate and absorbed the Great Spirit of Earth Muspel, saving Vincent and Prisca's life.


 * Following Lamia Godwin's death, Berstetz Fondalfon joined Vincent's ranks, later becoming the Imperial Prime Minister.


 * Palladia Manesque was killed by Prisca Benedict some time after the Battle of the Abellux Mansion.


 * Some time after Vincent's coronation, the Gladiator Island of Ginunhive prepared to revolt, wishing to leave the Empire and become independent, but the newly-crowned Emperor sent the Imperial Army to hush out the rebellion. During that time, Al was still on the Island and helped Arakiya, who infiltrated the island, open the main gate and let the Imperial Army inside. The rebellion was destroyed and the mastermind, Ubilk, escaped.


 * Jorah Pendleton was defeated in battle by Goz Ralfon and was later executed for treason.

A couple months later

 * Almost simultaneously, rebellions and insurrections started blooming all across the Empire, forcing Vincent to disperse the Nine Divine Generals throughout the Empire, leaving the Crystal Palace largely unguarded.


 * High Count Gaoran Peixit committed treason against the newly crowned Emperor, using the absence of the Nine Divine Generals and the weakened defenses as an opportunity to try and seize the Crystal Palace. Having said that, he and his forces were quickly defeated by the defending army led by Zikr Osman. The High Count later confronted Vincent, but was killed by His Majesty's bodyguard Rowan Segmunt.

4 BA

 * The Fourtour Plains in Lugunica was ravaged by the Great Rabbit and the surrounding villages were forced to evacuate. Duke Karsten and his retainers fought the Demon Beast, but he sustained injuries. The 17-year-old Crusch Karsten arrived later with Ferris Argyle, along with another contingent of soldiers, and managed to drive the creatures out. This event greatly boosted Crusch's image in the Kingdom, prompting people to start calling her The Valkyrie.


 * Hannah Argyle, the wife of the ruined Biehn Argyle, suddenly died. Lord Argyle, already a pariah in Lugunican society, began to dive deeper into depravity with his illegal research into resurrection. It would only be much later when it was discovered that Biehn had brutally murdered his wife; the reason was unknown, but frenetic stab wounds suggested an intense argument of some kind.

3 years and 6 months BA

 * Crusch Karsten succeeded Meckart Karsten as the Duke of House Karsten, a mere six months after her 17th birthday and the incident involving the Great Rabbit.

2 BA

 * Ferris Argyle became a Kingdom Knight and entered the Royal Guard via a recommendation by the Royal Institute of Healing, as his Divine Protection of Water grants him incredible Healing powers critical to the operations of the military. His appointment to the Royal Guard was further influenced by a recommendation by his close friend, the 4th Prince of Lugunica, Fourier Lugunica.


 * Biehn Argyle was discovered to have been communicating with a foreign operative from Vollachia in order to obtain slaves for human experimentation. House Karsten once again took up the task of investigating House Argyle and the following events led to a clash at Argyle estate between the Karsten private troops and Biehn's corpse soldiers, the result of his resurrection experiments. Biehn briefly managed to complete the act of resurrection of his wife, only for her to strangle him to death. The last living person in the mansion, the sole maid Hannah Regret, locked herself in the room with Biehn and his wife as the mansion burned down in the aftermath of the battle. The event was covered up and the residents of the Argyle manor were officially declared to have died by an accidental fire.


 * As with the case with the rest of the royal family, Fourier Lugunica fell ill to the mysterious epidemic. His father, King Randohal Lugunica, also became ill around this time. The Royal Family was effectively paralyzed.


 * All members of the Royal Family began to die en masse due to the same unknown disease that supposedly killed Princess Emerada.


 * Reinhard van Astrea was urgently dispatched to the Pleiades Watchtower in order to contact the Great Sage and find a cure for the disease that struck the Royal Family. He was unsuccessful, as he wasn't able to pass through the Sand Time.

8 to 9 months BA

 * The total extinction of the known Lugunica Royal Family led to the abolition of the covenant between the Kingdom of Lugunica and the Divine Dragon Volcanica and the potential power vacuum threatened to become a nationwide emergency. The Council of Elders, led by Miklotov McMahon, assumed control of the government and scrambled to deal with the issue of succession. Crusch was the first of five candidates discovered to have the qualifications to potentially be Lugunica's new ruler as signified by the Dragon Insignia. She immediately moved to meet the Sword Demon Wilhelm van Astrea, now an old, though capable man, and invited him into her camp in exchange for House Karsten's assistance in hunting the Hakugei that killed his wife 14 years ago.


 * Prince Fourier Lugunica and the rest of the Royal Family peacefully died after a month-long struggle with a mysterious illness. With a final dream of marriage, he peacefully passed away in the lap of Crusch Karsten, the woman he loved. Ferris officially became Crusch's knight, and Crusch officially began her bid for the Royal Selection, very much influenced by the prince’s death.


 * Priscilla Barielle, the daughter of late Vollachian Emperor Drizen Vollachia, and the young wife of the prominent Lord Leip Barielle, was discovered to be another Royal Selection Candidate. A tournament was held for her to choose her personal knight out of fifty. Surprisingly, a former gladiator by the name of Aldebaran was picked, despite not finishing in the top four.


 * Shortly after, Leip became indisposed after mysteriously going into shock and later died. As the sole inheritor, Priscilla gained control over his territory. The domain miraculously prospered thanks to her divine luck and exceptional leadership abilities.


 * Roswaal L Mathers met Emilia and Puck. After Puck and Roswaal battled for what was said to be half a day, Emilia defused the situation and accepted Roswaal's invitation to his mansion after he showed her the Dragon Insignia and enticed her into joining the Royal Selection to “free the elves frozen in Elior Forest”.

4 to 5 months BA

 * A coup d'etat nearly occurred in Vollachia in which the 77th Emperor, Vincent Vollachia, was briefly kidnapped from his throne by Lugunican diplomats, almost allowing conspirators Balleroy Temeglyph and Gramdart Holstoy to seize the throne. The plot was uncovered, and Vincent was returned to the Imperial title.


 * Ninth ranking Divine General Balleroy Temeglyph was defeated and killed in action by Julius Juukulius.


 * The Dragon Kingdom of Lugunica entered a non-aggression pact with the Vollachia Empire–something that had not happened in centuries.

3 to 4 months BA

 * Roughly a month after the incident in the Empire, 1st ranking Divine General Cecilus Segmunt and the 4th ranking Divine General Chisha Gold entered the Kingdom's territory in search of Gramdart Holstory–the culprit behind the failed coup. After several days of searching, Cecilus located the fugitive viscount and took him into custody.


 * The Kingdom's Sword Saint Reinhard van Astrea and the Empire's 1st Ranking Divine General Cecilus Segmunt held a sparing match, mimicking the Silver Flower Dance of Picoutatte. The winner of the duel was unknown. However, the Dragon Sword recognized Cecilus as a worthy opponent and Reinhard was permitted to fight the Blue Lightning with the Dragon Sword Reid. The duel went down in history as the Silver Flower Dance of the Sword Saint and the Blue Lightning.

2 to 3 months BA

 * The Emperor chose Madelyn Eschart as the new 9th ranking Divine General of the Imperial Army, succeeding Balleroy, who had died two months prior.

0 AA

 * A strange boy from another world suddenly appears in the capital of Lugunica. His name is Natsuki Subaru.
 * On that same night, the Sword Saint Reinhard van Astrea intervenes in a fight between the infamous Bowl Hunter Elsa Granhiert, one of the Royal Selection Candidates, Emilia, a girl from the slums, and the boy who had been summoned the very same day. Furthermore, Reinhard makes contact with the fifth and final Royal Selection Candidate, the girl from the slums, named Felt. He takes her to a spare Astrea mansion located in the Capital by force.
 * Less than a week later, Meili is dispatched to the Mathers territory by an unknown figure. Meili makes contact with the Arlam Village, curses and kidnaps 6 children and releases a pack of Wolgharms into the surrounding forest by disabling the protective barrier put up by the Margrave. The Mathers household maids, Rem and Ram and servant Subaru, proceed to rescue the children. Soon after, the Margrave Roswaal L Mathers arrives, killing the majority of the Demon Beasts in the forest.

1 to 2 months AA

 * The day of the Royal Selection Ceremony arrives, and the five Royal Selection Candidates arrive to the Royal Castle. After the ceremony is finished, Subaru and Rem stay at Crusch's residence, while Emilia and Roswaal return home with the latter one immediately departing for the Sanctuary.


 * On their way back from the Royal Castle, Reinhard, Felt and Rom stop at the destroyed loot house, where they encounter Gaston, Rachins Hoffman and Camberley severely beaten up. Felt decides to recruit them into her Camp.


 * The Witch Cult begins their activities once more, following the Royal Selection Ceremony and the revelation of one of the Candidates being a silver-haired half elf. The Hakugei also makes its appearance after years of "hibernation".


 * The Emilia Camp, Crusch Camp and Anastasia Camp form a temporary alliance, launching the joint-effort Hunt for the Hakugei, followed by a brief campaign to eradicate local Witch Cultists led by Sloth, known as The Sloth Subjugation. Following the successful battle against the Hakugei, the military convoy transporting Crusch, Rem and the wounded soldiers were ambushed by the Sin Archbishops of Greed and Gluttony. Every soldier, save for the units of the Fang of Iron mercenaries are either killed or consumed by Gluttony. Rem gets her name and memories eaten, while Crusch gets only her memories eaten.


 * In the days following the successful subjugations, Emilia Camp returns to the Mansion. Two days later, Subaru, Emilia and Otto set off towards the Sanctuary.


 * The Oousagi makes its appearance in the Lost Forest of Kremaldy. Elsa and Meili return to the mansion roughly three to four days after the trio's departure from the Mansion, but are intercepted by Subaru, Garfiel and Otto. A fight breaks out, resulting in Elsa Granhiert's death, Meili Portrout's defeat and Roswaal's Mansion's destruction. Just before the mansion collapses, Subaru makes a contract with Beatrice and the two teleport back to the Sanctuary. Simultaneously, Emilia frees the Sanctuary by overcoming the three trials of the Witch of Greed. Upon Subaru's and Beatrice's arrival, Emilia and two fight the Oousagi, successfully managing to send the hoard to a different dimension with the usage of Al Shamak.

 * Following the defeat of the Witch Cult in Priestella, Priscilla Camp is attacked by eleven Vollachian assassins as soon as she returns to her own mansion in Barielle Territory. Randomly deciding to go to Vollachia, Priscilla Camp sets off towards the Empire. Roughly a week later, while crossing the Kingdom's border with Vollachia via the Tigracy River, they're attacked by a group of river bandits, who turn out to be members of Serena Dracroy's personal army. They take Priscilla to Serena.


 * Emilia and Anastasia Camps set foot towards the Pleiades Watchtower, in order to meet the Great Sage and find a way to undo the damage done by Lust and Gluttony. The journey takes roughly two months. Upon arrival, the group is met by the Sage's Apprentice Shaula, but the Great Sage himself is nowhere to be seen. The Camps need to go through three trials once more, facing against tasks representing the three Old Heroes - the Sage Flugel, Reid Astrea and Volcanica. The three Gluttonies, Lye Batenkaitos, Louis Arneb and Roy Alphard invade the Tower alongside a large group of powerful Demon Beasts. As in a year prior, Emilia solves the three trials and becomes the Administrator of the Tower. Ram kills Lye Batenkaitos and avenges her sister, while Julius defeats Reid Astrea and subsequently Roy Alphard. The remaining members of the expedition defeat Shaula. Subaru, Rem and the amnesiac Sin Archbishop of Gluttony Louis Arneb are teleported to the Vollachia Empire.

Subaru sides with Vincent, who with the help of the Shudrak Clan is able to quickly disperse the Imperial Army in the area by annihilating the military camp at the outskirts of the Buddheim Jungle.


 * Roughly a week later, Vincent, Subaru, Rem, Louis and the Shudrak Clan manage to besiege and conquer Guaral, a fortified city at the edge of Buddheim Jungle under the control of the Second Class General Zikr Osman. Zikr joins their faction, however, they're suddenly attacked by the 2nd Ranking Divine General Arakiya, although they are saved by Priscilla Barielle.
