A Chronology
Modern conception of Ithos history only details back to migration era occurring as a result of the ice age during which civilized races migrated to The Mainlands from the Western Isles and even that is speculation since it predates recorded history. Theology outlines some Gods and gives vague or abstract reference to Titans but that is all.

Primordial Age

 * Advent
 * Limbo
 * Titans form
 * Titans battle and establish territory
 * Titans settle down and lay out cosmology
 * Titans create Gods to dwell in the cosmology and be subjects and mediators
 * Gods detail material spheres and other planes
 * Gods create inhabitants to dwell and be subjects to empower themselves
 * Gods disagree and war
 * Gods establish territory but disagree about the material plane
 * Gods agree to not own the material plane but rather fill it with beings of full freewill to decide the fate of their material by themselves
 * Gods create Ithics as the first material beings of free thought on the material sphere of Ithos and enable them to create and shape the world around them
