The Age of Creation
“Age of Creation” was a broad term for prehistoric Fabella prior to the invention of the wheel. The first generation of people were created from plant life in the Adele Peninsula on the Island of Adele. Segregation between tribes made up of the same species developed in this era as people split off from each other. Additional key events included the human revolt, the first tribal terror attack, and tents.

Aries 1st | March 21st
Fabella Begins – This was the first year of Fabella. There was no year zero. From here on out, Fabella’s timeline advanced evenly with Earth’s. No actual date for creation existed because Emit, being the only living eye witness to the event, grew up on a tropical island with no clear definition between seasons. Religious scholars later decided to celebrate on Aries 1st and call that when the new year started in spring. Emit had no choice but to go along with the decision.
