I have taken a very long time to create a timeline of Final Fantasy, connecting them all into the same world, and useing various infomation, tried to make a reason for why the "Bad" people who didn't really have a reason, have a reason for doing so. I'm sure I'm almost 100% wrong but I guess it could be my own FAN Timeline. NOTE: THe Crystal of Beginings is the name I gave the one in IX, I forgot its name.

- A huge war rages between the cities of Bevelle and Zanarkand. The war is fought with high-technological weapons, or "machina". Bevelle's machina is far superior to that of Zanarkand. The war lays waste to a large area of land, later known as the Calm Lands. The leader of Zanarkand, Yu Yevon, fears the worst.
- Shuyin in an attempt to save Zanarkand tries to steal Vegnagun. When his lover Lenne, tries to stop him they are both shot down, and killed.
- At Yevon's behest, many of the people of Zanarkand give up their lives and turn themselves into fayths.
- Chaos; in an attempt to take back the world of his own takes over Yu Yevon, and when combining his power with the most powerful summon on the planet was turned into the Monster known as �Sin�.
- Sin destroys Zanarkand.
- Yu Yevon's daughter, Lady Yunalesca, pioneers a plan to punish Bevelle and honor her father as well. She creates a technique called the Final Summoning, wherein a summoner who trains her Aeon-summoning abilities can call the Final Aeon. The Aeon is created from a guardian of the summoner, who has a close bond with her; the guardian is killed and turned into a fayth, who then controls the Aeon. Summoning the Final Aeon destroys Chaos�s armor Sin, but Chaos then merges with the new Aeon and Sin is reborn anew after a time. The summoner also cannot withstand the energy caused by this phenomenon, and dies as well.
- Yunalesca proclaims that this rite can defeat Sin for a time and give Gaia hope for a short while, but unless the world embraces the teachings of Yu Yevon and atones for their sins, Sin will never disappear completely.
- Yunalesca uses her husband Zaon as the first Final Aeon. She is then killed by the Final Summoning, but refuses to be sent to the afterlife. She remains in the ruins of Zanarkand to guide future summoners in the rite of the Final Summoning.
- The fayths of Gaia all dream a dream and re-create Zanarkand in a dream world, so in a way it can still live and thrive.
- Bevelle remains in terror of Yevon and Sin, and to appease Yevon begins circulating his teachings. Mainly these revolve around the Final Summoning and a ban on machina. He allows certain non-martial machina (Blitzball machines, for instance) to survive. Bevelle disseminates these teachings (along with Yunalesca's plan involving the Final Summoning) and sets up temples throughout Spira. Each temple holds a fayth, whose Aeon�s summoners can train themselves with.
- The Al Bhed, a tribe speaking a foreign language, are unimpressed with Yevon and remain steadfast in using machina.

a) The Dwarfs
b) Garland taking Cycle of Souls then trying another way
c) Both VII and IX are stated to be Gaia

SPOILERS AHEAD

Interesting idea, and you've obviously put a lot of thought into this, however, it is incorrect. Each FF game takes place in a completely different parallel universe from the previous title - with only certian elements re-occuring between each FF title (summons, magic spells, equipment names, a character named Cid, airships, crystals etc).

The only exception to this rule is FFXII, which takes place in the world of Ivalice, the same world as which previously appeared in FF Tactics and FF Tactics Advance. It is also rumoured that FFVII's world is actually FFX's planet of Spira in the far future, but the 'evidence' for this is tenuous and vague at best.

Incidentally, FFV takes place on three different parallel worlds (although the third world is simply the two previous worlds combined), and FFIV features a trip to the moon, not to mention FFIX is set on the twin worlds of Gaia and Terra (which apparently is located inside Gaia).

Not to mention three titles also tie in with Earth (FF Tactics Advance starts off on Earth before 'changing' into Ivalice, as does the animated series FF Unlimited, and the FF movie FF The Spirits Within also takes place on Earth. ANd I won't even bother mentioning FFI's 'time loop', and the Time Compression concept from FFVIII, nor the 'real' and 'dream' worlds in FFX.

I apologise if that sounded long winded and critical, but I just wanted clarify that it is inaccurate. It was an interesting idea though. :)

its nice to think that somehow the series is linked i mean once you complete one there's nothing left thats it so its nice to think that somehow you are playing a 'sequel' and not just another game

"Everyone loves the over critical, cold hearted bastard but whoah" Is that refering to me? I'm confused...

10-06-2006, 03:41 PM
No he was referring to me.

But that is honestly what it is.
Sure from a standpoint the timeline might look impressive, but you have no evidence to prove what you say may actually have occured all on the same planet.

And honestly, being in a wheelchair for a physical handicap is nothing like walking on two legs but I can assure you, you can do so much more productive things with your time then creating...utter bullshit.

So, I relly have no pity for you and will not excuse your lack of a decent explanation of your post just because you are handicapped.

FF VII and IX aren't necessarily the same world; Gaea (VII) --> Gaia (IX). The different spellings mean differen worlds in my opinion. Nice time line, but I see 6-12 taking place on different worlds. 1-5 possibly on the same world, but i really doubt it.

Refresh me on what happened at the end of IV and the beginning of V.

Did they steal or break the crystals in IV? If so, were they fixed before V?

09-20-2010, 10:50 PM
woah, what a dusty thread... forgot how I ended up here.
But as far as I know... SquareEnix confirmed that FF7 plays chronologically AFTER FF10, they stated that, the little Shinra guy in FF10-2 is some kind of great ancestor of Rufus Shinra from FF7 (but you could have figured that out by yourself after Shinra's comment in the end of FF10-2 ;) )
I try to find really "realistic" connections between the games sometimes too, but ... just to think about the geologically surface of the worlds you play on... even IF this is the same planet and there are tousands of years between the games, the continents are shifting like crazy... and how does FF3 fit in there with this weird flying continent? Even more confusing is FF4 with the two moons, or FF5 and FF9 with this parallel dimension stuff.
And the Ivalice stories, since they only take place in specific "countries" and not on a whole world...uuum well I don't want to mention vana'diel from FF11 lol

okay enough timeline rant, this franchise is just out of control... gawd FF13 with this weird... cocoon and pulse... where this 2 planets?! they don't explain crap to you! XD
