Earth (uhrth)

Egypt was the central hub of Arentium operations on Earth to mine resources and ship them back to the Duat in a desperate bid to rebuild their shattered world. Outposts were set up in Europe, Central America, Asia, and North America, as they struggled to study Earth’s habitat. Many Arentiums chose to make Earth their permanent home and elected to raise their families and die without returning to their homeworld. 

Egyptians worshipped the Arentiums as gods. Among the most well known were Thoth, Bastet, Ra, Sekhemet (Lilly), Anubis, Set, Nephthys, and Tefnut. The families of Ra (Thoth, Lilly, Bastet) and Geb (Set, Nephthys, Osiris, Anubis) were pitted against each other on a regular basis. Ra’s family would go on to create the Sentinels. Meanwhile, Geb’s family went on to contend with them as The Titans. The rivalry between these family factions continued throughout recorded history on Fabella, Earth, and Arentium.

Set was the first person to travel from Earth to Fabella when he used the blood of a lost Anamataboga Dragon to create a portal. He kept this discovery secret from his fellow Arentiums, choosing to keep it with his immediate family. During one of his fateful trips to poach Fabellan wildlife, Set strayed across the path of Emit and Stephanie, witnessing magic for the first time.

Thoth, Bastet, Lilly, and Anubis found out about Set’s discovery and launched their own expedition to Fabella where they met Emit. Having tangoed with Set before, Emit abducted the travellers and enslaved them. Emit came to see that these people were good hearted folk and began to bond with them. This team eventually formed the core group of the Alliance of Sentinels.

Unfortunately, Lord Chronos — now firmly in possession of Set’s body and mind — arrived to blast apart Emit’s camp and kidnap the faun.

When he returned to Fabella, Lord Chronos also rejuvenated the kingdom of Punt. Trade between Earth and Fabella through Egypt and Punt was established. Both kingdoms greatly benefited from this trade agreement and their economy rose sharply as a result. Punt was also where Lord Chronos formed his Titan army, preparing them to challenge the Arentium Universal Government in secret so he could gain absolute control of all three universes.

Titans commanded by Lord Chronos and Tefnut, laid claim to Fabella, Earth, and Arentium. Only the armies of merfolk under the leadership of the Alliance of Sentinels rose to defend their land. The Titans massacred this army at every turn, but from the ashes sprang Fantasia.

Founded by Stephanie LaFleur and the Sentinels, The Republic of Fantasia quickly arose as an Empire to oppose the Titan’s might. From this glorious nation arose the Olympians, who replaced the Titans as the dominant rulers of Earth.

Under the Olympians rule, free travel was permitted through the vortex bridging Earth and Fabella. As long as visitors could find someone with Fabellan DNA to open a portal, they were permitted to go. Trade between the two worlds helped them flourish, but also created its fair share of conflict.

Fabellans and Earthlings did not get along. A tremendous amount of animosity developed between the two worlds, dividing them and even creating a number of wars. Magic created the greatest division amongst the people and the Olympians struggled to control who had the right to wield such power on both worlds. As the years of conflict wore on, it became clear that Fabella and Earth could not peacefully coexist.

The end of the Age of Marvels saw the closure of all gateways to the public by order of the Olympians. The Olympians had seen their power dwindle in the eyes of the people as violent acts continued to mount. All evidence of the existence of Fabella was burned or covered up on Earth, leading to a dark age in human history.

Despite the Olympians best efforts to clean up their mess, there were still lingering sources of magic and creatures on Earth during the Age of Monsters. Kings routinely employed mages in their courts and knights were forced into conflict with beasts like dragons.

Knowledge of magic and Fabella passed into memory on Earth. Any history that survived was regarded as myth and wildly misreported. What monsters there were remained trapped in the oceans as their small population slowly died out.

Focus on Fabellan history on Earth turned largely to long forgotten relics from the Age of Marvels. Treasures like the Rosetta Stone and the Fountain of Youth were highly sought after.

The greatest affect Earth had on the history of Fabella came when a naval vessel the USS Insurgent accidentally got pulled into a portal. The ship crash landed in Auslar with barrels full of gunpowder and ammunition. Captain Fletcher used the weapons on board to fight against magicians from the Avalon Empire. Thus began the storied history of the Bloodborne Empire.

The Empire’s focus on Earth was chiefly concerned with overtaking it like they had Fabella. Emperor Chronos secretly allied himself with dictators sympathetic to his cause with the goal of letting them do all the hardwork with waging worldwide conquests, leaving the door open him to swoop in and take charge at the proper moment.

The outbreak of the second World War on Earth coincided with Continental War II on Fabella. The Bloodborne Empire found its attention too divided with squashing rebels led by the Alliance of Sentinels on their home turf to provide the Axis Powers with much assistance. Consequently, they lost both wars.

After a Fabellan airboat crash landed in Roswell, New Mexico, the United States entered into an alliance with the Sentinels. They secretly exchanged intelligence including technology, weaponry, and other goods. As the United Nations was brought up to speed, plans to integrate Fabella with Earth’s society were drafted. However, magic remained something the Sentinels were reluctant to pass on. This created friction between themselves and the United Nations leading to abandonment of the treaty. The United Nations formed a covert international federal agency to police Fabellan activity. All incoming Heads of State were also briefed on the existence of Fabella when they took office.

The United Nations continued to be instrumental in keeping knowledge of Fabella secret from the outside world. A cold war of sorts existed between themselves and Fabella. Travellers caught on Earth soil were arrested, detained, and sent back to Fabella for sentencing. The same was true on Fabella as the World Court worked to prevent travel between the two universes and destroy all gateways.

Following the damage wrought by Decimation Day and the Saga Virus, Fabellans attempted to cross over into Earth in droves. The United Nations scrambled to scoop up enormous groups of Fabellan refugees while still keeping knowledge of Fabella confidential. Refugees fled underground to live life in secret. As late as 2025, knowledge of Fabella was still a tightly guarded secret.
