DevLog #3: Timeline (Patreon)
Content
As you read my DevLog 2 and compare the Thigh Bible Passages to what current Genesis/Lore/Premise is, you can see how my inspirations was working. By creating such foundation I made many points of this world more credible: why the world looks like a hot female body besides just "accidentally"; why every person worship for a singular Allmother, and consider some part of her body more sacred than other; why there are evil creatures envious of tits and butts of other hot girls.
My second important decision was to choose a main time period which will be explored and presented. Originally it was a medieval setting, but being fun of Warhammer 40000 I moved far into the future... Then I scaled back because I wanted to keep it all grounded on the same planet. And so there are 4 timelines to present:
Main Timeline.
There will be a lot to explore, so I will leave it for future Lore instead of Devlog but some points are:
It is closer to modern era, with technological aesthetics varying and mixing between 19-20-21th Earth centuries, because some technological state of Earth is not possible on this world. Crude Oil don't exist on Meorenell same like on Earth, so there was no massive petrol-fueled automobile boom or plastic bug/bottle factories. The polymer production exist through different ways, but because it is less-efficient it is also limited to most important industries where it is needed. Main ways of land transportation would be either Beast-drawn vehicles for short travels, or trains for long ones (many of them are still steam/coal powered outside of cities). Though, electricity was discover already, and started to be actively used: capital cities are fully powered, with a lot of Railway electrification and banned Beast-drawn vehicles to prevent drowning in animal poop. Internet is limited in efficiency as it is new technology for now, and I haven't decided how powerful computers are yet.
What really dictates technological progress is Herquisition order, with a branch which is in charged of approving or banning stuff (like Adeptus Mechanicus from Warhammer). Most of times they forbid anything that hurts Her Gorgeous Body, hence no satellites or space rockets are made yet - because they all would be made from Her flesh, and that means sending chunks of Her flesh away from Her body, which is Blasphemous; they also forbid any artillery to be used in war for it also hurts Her body, but they allow mining and quarries, because extraction of that material is used for creation, not a result of war.
Smaller Timelines.
Two other timelines that I can venture back to and explore would be Primal and Great Strife.
Primal one is the beginning of the Age of Crumbling, some first centuries after Meora's passing and birth of all Tribes. Very primitive technologies, less cultural civilization, massive natural disasters in newborn environment, first Envasions of Serpent's offsprings... and a lot of muscular hot half-naked girls wearing bones and hides of killed dangerous beast...
Great Strife is the end of the Age of Crumbling and the beginning of the Age of Aspects. Medieval setting, so it is an opportunity to dwell into a theme of hot half-naked girls wearing medieval armor.
Fourth Timeline.
The final one, into far far future. Shall I decide to stop working on this World, this should be the ending, so I have nothing to say about it because I don't want to think about it myself.
