Timeline

Before the Main Events of the Series

2080 AD

• The world human population exceeds 12 billion. The United Nations launches the Mars colonization program "Red Mars Project" as a countermeasure to cope with the population explosion.

2085 AD Approximate

• Creation of the genetically-modified test-tube babies -- the three Knightlord siblings. They were created to be the leaders of the the future colonization plan (2085AD, prototype Lilith was born in the South Asian Community SAU Bodh Gaya. 2088 AD, Cain was born in EU Berlin. In the same year, Abel was born in EU London. 2089AD, Seth was born in the United States Federation Quebec).

• The test-tube babies were genetically-modified to suppress their aging. They age slower (about 1.5 times the human).

• In accordance to the development agency's plan, these ten thousand colonizers would not remain on Mars for the long term. Almost all of them will return to Earth every few years, scheduling rotational work shifts for the development of Mars. But four test-tube babies will remain permanently on Mars. The rationale was that they were "manufactured" people.

2090 AD Approximate

• Using the colonizers' previous phase as a marking point, cyanobacteria and robots were sent out using an unmanned ship. This was done as pre-preparation for the arrival of the colonizers.

2120 AD

• The first phase of Mars colonization group (about a million people).

2124 AD

• Earth erupted into a Armageddon (later known as "Great Tribulation") as every country fought for the ownership of the bacillus and the Ark. The Mars Colonizers were unable to contact Earth, and became isolated in the universe.
• The colonizers used technology from the Ark to repair their damaged return ship. Decided together to launch a plan to return to Earth. This return ship's outer shell was made from the mini-asteroid from the asteroid belt, the engine was made on Earth. The control system originated from the alien's spaceship, "The Ark." Therefore, this return ship was also called "The Ark."

2200s AD Roughly

• First batch of Returners return to Earth (Rwenzori Mountains).*

2210 AD Roughly

• War was formally declared between the Returners and humans of Earth.
• To save their companion Returners, repressing the rebelling humans of Earth, the three Knightlord siblings used their own Krusnik fighting prowess and the Lost technologies from the Ark to kill millions of people from Earth. 
• Witnessing these tragedies, Lilith decides to oppose the three Knightlord siblings, taking the side of the humans of Earth. Pretending to be obedient, she infused herself with the Krusnik bacillus, turning into "Krusnik 04".

2215 AD Roughly

• Lilith waited for the opportunity, led the subgroup of returners who wanted peace, left the other returners.*
• The peace-seeking subgroup of returners led the human resistance, then Vatican recorded the events as...

1. Lilith meets Geogrio -- "Advent of the Lady Saint."
2. Alexios, Nevşehir led Lilith's army, fought a large-scaled battle against the three siblings in the outskirts of Paris. Victory -- "The Battle of Lourve".
3. Istvan Kadar of Lilith's army began supplying power from Budapest - "Saint Istvan grants mana (note: The Lord grants Israel people food in the Bible)"*

2220 AD Roughly

• Cain completely fused with the Krusnik, secretly decided to burn the whole world. Using the lie of bringing "long-term benefits to humanity", convinced his younger brother and sister ("we are going to renew the world with fire" was the motto for this ideaology).

• Cain tells Lilith, saying he "wanted to quickly seek the possibility of peace," then attacked her after inviting her to the Ark. Cain used his Krusnik power and fought with Lilith, in the end seriously injured himself after killing her.

• Lilith's death was made known, a still-alive Cain was pushed by an enraged Abel from the Ark to Earth's atmosphere. Lost all details afterwards.

• Abel returned to Earth with Lilith's body in his arms, receiving protection from the Vatican. Then he guarded Lilith's remains, never leaving Rome's underground catabombs, and continued like this for nine-hundred years.

• The Returners, after losing their commanders the three Knightlord siblings, had no commanders, were completely decimated on the ground.

2230 AD

• Around this time, Pope Innocent XVI was martyred.

2250 AD

• Seth led the remaining key members of the Returners and escaped to Eastern Europe, establishing the True Human Empire. In the modern era, other than the True Human Empire, there are also neighboring countries belonging to Returners, but the Vatican and humanity persistently defeated them.

2401 AD

• Neighboring the Kingdom of Hispania, Grenada's Methuselah Kingdom (Kingdom of Grenada), perished at the hands of the human army (the entire Grenada royal family died). The only Methuselah country left was the True Human Empire. The human army issued a declaration of victory over the vampires. The Vatican defined this year as the start of the "Holy Era."

Note: Years after 2401 AD were named the "Holy Era" (聖暦 seireki "Holy Era"),. which would possibly translate to "Anno Sanctus" in Latin. This would contrast Anno Domini, meaning "In the Year of the Lord" (西暦 seireki "Western Era").

2400 AD Early Period

• In this era, the early colonists (first generation) began to age and die. Although their lives are long compared to humans, it is certain they are not unaging nor immortal. This was caused by the bacillus aging.
