 ===== Era of Purpose in Guidance and Creation (6 billion years ago - now) =====
-    * ~5.9 billion years ago: [[character:Zalaagra]] pioneers the notion of Actually Doing Things with the universe and actively seeding it with life, seeding the way for the Draconics.

     * ~[[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Earth&oldid=565866715|~4.5 billion years ago]]: Jeneth and Evenetra design Earth, with Evenatra providing concepts and ideas and Jeneth the Thread. Ysikary occasionally drops by to advise on details.
     * ~66 million years ago: Disagreement as to how and whether to intervene with the next mass extinction event now that the dominant species is likely to be a hair's breadth removed from sapience drives the three Threadwielders apart. (Or, more //dramatic// way of putting the same event: Evenatra elopes with Ysikary because Jeneth is a meanie.) Jeneth permits them to save a few specimen to [[place:Nekenalos|a place of their choice]] under the condition they don't actively bother him about it.

     * ~1 million years ago: The //[[culture:Nayabaru]]// and the //[[culture:Kavkema]]// attain what a Threadwielder would consider sapience: An ability and desire to intellectually dissect even the distant universe.
     * ~50 000 years ago: Immersion into their respective cultures puts Evenatra at odds with Ysikary, since the species cannot coexist peacefully on intellectual levels. For a while, the two Threadwielders simply try to occupy separate climate zones with their cultures and go out of each others' way.
-    * ~20 000 years ago: In a timespan of roughly 200 years, the conflict escalates to the point that Ysikary decides to create [[character:Teranyina]], never once doubting her ability to keep her under control - and no doubt never actually intending to use her to harm Evenatra, just to get her to leave and find her own planet. We know how well that plan went.

     * ~3 000 years ago: The current Nekenalos status quo has established itself: The Kavkema are near-extinct.
