Template:Timeline This is a detailed timeline of the history of the Destiny universe. Note that nearly all events are not attached to specific dates; they may not be in exact chronological order, and adjacent events in the list may be separated by spans of only a few days or several centuries.

The Ancient Past

  • The Worms, an intelligent species able to wield the power of the Darkness directly, are trapped in the depths of a global ocean within one of the atmospheric layers of the gas giant Fundament. The Traveler's priest, a creature called Leviathan, also dwells in the deeper Fundament and attempts to dissuade anyone from seeking them out. The Worms in turn begin calling across the stars to other species, seeking to lure one that can free them.[1][2] As a result, hundreds of species migrate to Fundament and become stranded there - eking out a living on the shards of their broken worlds which become floating continents. One such species was the proto-Hive, whose homeworld collided with Fundament and shattered. The proto-Hive survive and build a new civilization for themselves on the floating shards of their former homeworld, gradually forgetting their original history. [3]
  • Meanwhile, a species of bony six-armed cephalopods named the Ammonite, benefit from the Traveler's patronage and build a sophisticated starfaring civilization spanning all of Fundament's fifty-two moons, before eventually coming into contact with the distant Ecumene.[4][5]
  • At eight years of age, the proto-Hive Osmium King of the Osmium Court on Fundament sires his final brood of offspring, which include his three daughters Xi Ro, Sathona, and Aurash who are tutored by sterile mother Taox. At ten years of age, the Osmium King begins to succumb to senility and madness; becoming consumed with ancient texts and obsessing over the movements of Fundament's moons, and the possibility of a catastrophic alignment called the Syzygy.[6]
  • Fearing for the Osmium Court's future and believing the royal daughters were unsuited to rule, Taox secretly contacts the rival continent's Helium Drinkers of the Helium Court, inviting them to invade, assassinate the royal family, and install her as a subservient regent of the Osmium Court in exchange for engines capable of moving their continent. The Helium Drinkers agree, resulting in the Osmium Court's fall and the death of the Osmium King, but the royal daughters escape and vow to take revenge. [7][8]

Pre-Golden Age

  • The Traveler visits the Eliksni (later known the "Fallen") and provides them with limitless Ether.[citation needed] The Eliksni propser under the Traveler's patronage and revere it as "The Great Machine". During these years, the House of Judgment enforces law and peace.[9]
  • The Traveler abandons the Eliksni around this time. In the aftermath, the House of Judgement attempts to maintain order among the survivors, but is unable to prevent the outbreak of a bloody civil war and is itself nearly eradicated. The remnants of the House of Judgment are forced into servitude by the remaining Kells.[13]
  • At some point, the Cabal forge a vast interstellar Empire. Somehow the telekinetic Psions are incorporated into the Empire as a client race. Eventually, an unknown calamity strikes the Cabal home world and forces the Empire to flee.[14][15]

The Golden Age

  • The Traveler promises humanity the universe [18] and imparts its vast knowledge to humanity,[19] spurring the colonization of the Solar System.[20] The Golden Age, a centuries-long[21] era of widespread prosperity and technological miracles, begins.[20]
  • Jacob Hardy is involved in a project to study the Traveler's terraforming actions.[22]
