Since the story can be a little confusing here is an
official timeline of events critical to the universe that the Starbolts and
related teams exist in. The timeline is interspersed with real world events.
Ancient past:
14 billion years ago:
The universe was created in an explosion known as the Big
Bang.
4 billion years ago:
A mysterious alien civilization develops faster than light
space travel and began exploring their galaxy (now known as the Milky Way)
Their journeys and expeditions across the galaxy reveals them to be alone in
the void. Knowing that existence is finite, they seed the primordial oceans of
countless worlds throughout the galaxy with their DNA so that life will
continue in their image. Assured of their legacy and tiring of wandering the
void alone, they eventually evolve to a higher plane of being, leaving the
seeds planted in their galactic garden to eventually create life.
3.5 billion years ago:
Life began on Earth and many other planets.
1 billion years ago:
After observing their great work for ages, the ancient ones
leave our galaxy and explore the universe.

became extinct in a catastrophic event killing most life on Earth. Life would
manage to recover.

species on Earth.

abilities. They begin observing the development of the worlds they seeded so
