Codex Alera Timeline

<< < (7/30) > >>

novium:
Maybe a few women held the throne? Maybe a few of them went by other names. If they're like the roman emperors who had half a dozen names more than usual...for example:
Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, aka Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus, aka Nero Claudius Drusus Germanicus...

or Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus Germanicus (caligula, which was a nickname from when he was a kid)

or Tiberius Claudius Nero Caesar Augustus.

Of course, they are only known by one name, now....

Hmm rough CF timeline.

So.. cf spoilers obviously.




*NRS Night of the red stars.

4y ABC Late Summer-Gaius leaks a letter to Kalare claiming he's making Aquitaine his heir. Tavi is sent to Appia to help Maestro Magnus.
-roughly a week later, Kalare begins positioning his forces.
5y ABC Early Spring- 7 weeks before NRS Max meets up with Tavi and Magnus at Appia, foil an assassination and head for the 1st Aleran. itaine.
-6 weeks before NRS Amara and Bernard arrive in Ceres. Isana is touring with Lady Aquitaine.
-1 month before NRS Tavi Max and Magnus join the 1st Aleran.
-3 weeks before NRS Tavi "fixes" the ration cups, Max is injured. Captain Demos stop at Wesmiston on his way to the Canim homeland. Isana arirves inCeres somewhere around here.
-day prior to NRS Tavi realizes Kitai is in the camp.
-Night of the Red Stars. Tavi has been with the legion roughly 1 month Demos raids Westmiston, Ehern pays him to take word back to Aleran. Kalare unleashed the Immortals, his legions begin their attack.
-1 day after NRS Seige of Ceres begins. Amara hostage Rescue team that starts towards Kalare. Isana begins healing fade
-1 week after NRS 1st Aleran arrives at Elinarch
~Unclear but probably 10 or so days after NRS Ehern warns 1st Aleran that the Canim are coming. Command staff is killed by lightning. Tavi assumes command. Scouting mission.
~11-12 days after NRS Battle of Elinarch.
~11 days after NRS Amara and the rescue team arrive in Kalare
~12 day after NRS, Rescue Team Escapes with the Hostages, Kalarus is knocked out of the Sky, Gaius is Informed of the Hostages safety.
~ 20 days after NRS Kalarus is in Ceres with Brencis torching Orphanges.
~21-22 days after NRS Marcus(Fidelias) meets Gaius Sextus at Elinarch.
-28 days Still Healing Fade Ceres under siege, Kalarus' forces break through the wall.
-29 days after NRS Siege of Ceres is lifted. Placidus' legions come to the aid of Ceres, Fade is healed.

Okay, now I'm pretty sure on my timeline here.

The siege of Ceres can't start till the NRS and it is clearly roughly 29 days long.

The 1st Aleran Clearly arrives at the Elinarch a week after NRS and the Battle of the Elinarch starts the day after Ehern arrives there. Now there is definately some room between them arriving at Elinarch and them getting word from Ehern. The only specific time line mention I can find is that it's been a week since the First Lords last, and only, missive.  If that was the orders to move to Elinarch, the time line shortens considerably. If it wasn't you could have as much as an extra week to play with, but during that week apparently Max and Tavi haven't had any time to talk. Regardless, the First Lord meets Fidelias 10 days after the battle.

More problematic is the rescue mission. Amara says it took 10 or 11 days to reach Kalare, and once they do the rescue misison goes off in the next day or two at most. It should be noted that at this point the Red Mist is also starting to break up. Furthermore, after Placidus gets word Aria is safe he force marches his legions to Ceres in less than a day.

I have no solution to this unless it actually took Amara and the rescue team 20 some days to reach Kalare. The other option would be that there was a distinct gap between Gaius finding out Placidus Aria and Atticus Elania were saved and him passing the information on to the High Lords.

If anyone has an idea or sees an error made please feel free to correct me.

Shiggy:
Sorry I've slacked on this [in a major way].  If I have access at work, I'll print everything out, and then sit down and combine everyone's info and then re-integrate it into the main timeline post.  If I don't have access, I'll be tackling this over the holiday weekend. *crosses fingers she has access at work*

Darron:
Another time point.

Aldrick became an outlaw "18 years ago" during FoC.  Which puts that 3 years BFC.  Which most likely sets the timeframe for the famous Araris/Aldrick duel to at least that early.

This explains why Issana doesn't seem to recognize Aldrick.  He wasn't with the crown legion at or just before First Calderon.
 

Shiggy:
Farraday - What does your ABC thing mean?  I need to know in order to integrate your timeline into the main one.

Thanks Darron, I'll add that in when I get home from work.

Any page numbers to support any of this would greatly help.
