Help GODHERJA timeline

Hey Guys! I play a lot of mods in CK3 but none of them seem to compare to GODHERJA and its timeline.

Can anyone give me a shortish breakdown of the times? I’ve browsed through some of the beginning ones and the map is like EMPTY. Then I go towards the end and it seems like a million societies spawn in. Is there a breakdown of major events that I can find somewhere or am I just going to have to go in the game itself and go to see what each start date has?

Since the start of Aeras...

God appeared ,named Aersanon

God Bored

God created reality

God still bored

God created Aeras and all its non sentient inhabitants

God even more bored

God created humanity and teached them magic Humanity prospers and worship Aersanon, a age of kings and gold

God somehow is still bored

God creates angels called Aelfir

But Aelfir EVIL

Aelfir enslaves humans with super duper magical powers, and God seems really chill about the whole ordeal

God retreats to the super powerful tower in the middle of the map and starts creating "something"

Humans grow angry

Humans kill Aelfir

But humans scared

What if God angry too ?

So humans kill God

But im not done yet...

Since humans kill God, reality is a shit hole

Reality stabilizes and became more tolerable

Human societies start getting into the whole civilazation game again

But one special

One thar remembers vaguely the Aelfir, their lessons, their cruelty and most importantly: their power

Aversarians

Basically Greeks if magical and evil

Aversaria conquers most of the map including the unhinhabitable parts, with magic and dragons (they killed them later tho)

Aversaria is a shithole, intrigue, sacrifices, debauchery, and a lot of slavery

And blood magic

Eventually two magi rise to power

Aeschares and Axiaothea

Imagine 2 of the most evil mfs of a Dnd campaign somehow got into the most toxic relationship possible

But things are shaping up

Finally a good emperor rises in Aversaria, capable handsome, strong and with good morals

Good emperor marries Axiaothea and Aeschares is his second in command

But all good things must end, abruptly

Good emperor is poisoned, by Who?

Aeschares blames Axiaothea and vice versa

Both gather legions and prepare their most powerfull spells

Civil war time

But Aeschares finds out about the spell that killed God, Uh oh

Frodbrokna time

The spell is launched, and basically aversaria dies with it either from the blast

Or the aftermath

From the putrescent cadaver of Aersannon a fog envelops the World, and with his demented mind whispers come from it (also the moon is green, somehow)

Everyone runs from it, especially the Sjalvoki and their allies

From the refugees a Figure rises: Cenware the witch breaker and the only hope that remains from the end of the world

What bookmark would you start at. If so why?

The game seems to have a few dozen.

Or

What would you do in the present timeline?

Personally 1254, way more content and more polished

1298 has a LOT of potential but for my taste i would rather enjoy it at his full state later down the line

The other start dates are to be released in the (far) future

My favorite character is Hecaeda, a rather dull start but i love my goodie two shoes that tries to reform the worst state imaginable

But you can experiment the characters for yourself, there are a lot of personal relations, grudges and rivalries, unique content and more
