The Ancient Past
- The Worms, an intelligent species able to wield the power of the Darkness directly, are imprisoned by the Traveler in the lowest depths of the global ocean that exists in one of the atmospheric layers of the gas giant Fundament. The Traveler tasks its disciple, a creature called Leviathan, with guarding the Worms and dissuading anyone who seeks them out. The Worms in turn begin calling across the stars to other intelligent species, seeking to lure one that can free them. As a result, hundreds of species make their way to Fundament and become stranded there, eking out a living on floating continents. One such species was the proto-Hive, whose homeworld collided with Fundament and shattered. The proto-Hive survive and build a new civilization for themselves on the floating shards of their former homeworld, gradually forgetting their original history.
- Meanwhile, the Traveler shares its bounty of knowledge with the Ammonite species native to an icy moon of Fundament. The Ammonite eventually build an advanced starfaring civilization that spans all of Fundament's 52 moons, and comes into contact with the distant Ecumene.
- At eight years of age, the proto-Hive Osmium King of the Osmium Court on Fundament sires his final brood of offspring, which include his three daughters Xi Ro, Sathona, and Aurash. The royal daughters are tutored by Taox.
- At ten years of age, the Osmium King begins to succumb to senility and madness, consulting with his 'dead' pet worm, obsessing over the movements of Fundament's moons, and the possibility of a catastrophic alignment called the Syzygy. Fearing for the Osmium Court's future and believing the royal daughters were unsuited to rule, Taox secretly contacts the rival Helium Drinkers of the Helium Court, inviting them to invade, assassinate the royal family, and install her as a subservient regent of the Osmium Court. The Helium Drinkers agree, resulting in the Osmium Court's fall and the death of the Osmium King, but the royal daughters escape and vow to take revenge.
- Three years after losing their kingdom, upon the advice of their father's worm, Xi Ro, Sathona, and Aurash use a salvaged high-tech ship to dive into Fundament's depths, hoping to discover a secret to stave off the Syzgy, which Aurash had come to believe was imminent. They encounter the Leviathan, but reject his pleas to turn back and continue on to the Worms. The Worms offer the sisters immortality and power in exchange for accepting their larvae as parasites and carrying out the will of the Darkness. The sisters agree to the pact and are transformed into the first Hive: Xi Ro becomes Xivu Arath, Sathona becomes Savathûn, and Aurash becomes Auryx.
- Xivu Arath, Savathûn, and Auryx return to the surface and share the Worm parasites among the other proto-Hive, creating an army that quickly overwhelms Fundament's other species. Taox flees, at first to other continents and then to the Ammonite capital moon where she is granted asylum. The Hive follow and war against the Ammonites, eventually exterminating them, killing Leviathan, and forcing the Traveler to abandon Fundament. The Hive colonize and transform Fundament's moons into mobile war-moons, and embark on their purge of the universe in the name of the Darkness.
- The Hive eradicate hundreds of intelligent species, including the Qugu.
- Approximately twenty-four thousand years after the fall of the Ammonites, the Hive reach the frontier of the Ecumene and invade 17 worlds over the course of a century. The Dakaua, a client species of the Ecumene, discover Taox in cryo-stasis aboard an ancient ship. Taox shares her knowledge of the Hive's leaders and motivations with the Dakaua, and the Ecumene unleashes its most powerful weapons against the Hive, who immediately suffer setbacks.
- Seeking the power necessary to allow the Hive to continue their crusade, Auryx slays the Worm God Akka, harnessing the ability to Take. Auryx becomes Oryx, the Taken King.
- Over a period of one thousand, one hundred and forty years, the resurgent Hive annihilate the species of the Ecumene so utterly that no trace of them remains. Taox escapes yet again, however, and the Hive resume their pursuit, ravaging the galaxy along the way.
- After destroying the Taishibethi, Oryx reaches the Darkness itself and communes with it. He decides to produce children, and sires a son and twin daughters: Crota, Ir Anûk, and Ir Halak.
- While Oryx is absent from his court to observe the Darkness destroy an ancient fortress world, Crota inadvertently opens a portal to a place containing Vex. The Vex plague Oryx's ascendant realm for a hundred years before the Worm God Eir calls Oryx home to deal with the problem. Oryx comes to consider the Vex a worthy rival, and resolves to follow the Darkness and document the destruction it wreaks in a "grave of worlds", so that he may learn from it and use this knowledge to succeed in his crusade against the universe.
- With his ascendant realm having been compromised by the Vex incursion, Oryx builds the Dreadnaught from Akka's corpse and houses his realm within it. Soon after, Oryx defeats Quria, Blade Transform and the remaining Vex who were attacking him. Quria's last act is to share what it has learned about Oryx's origins as Aurash with the rest of the Vex collective mind.
- By means unknown, the Vex embed themselves in every known celestial body. On Venus this results in the creation of the Vault of Glass and Atheon, Time's Conflux.
- The Hive destroy the Harmony, another species that had built a peaceful and advanced civilization with the aid of the Traveler. Afterwards, Oryx's sisters part ways with him; Savathûn takes her war-moons into the black hole the Harmony's worlds orbited, while Xivu Arath ventures into unknown space. Oryx journeys on in the footsteps of the Darkness, continuing the Hive's crusade and still seeking the elusive Taox.
Pre-Golden Age
- The Traveler visits the Eliksni (later known the "Fallen") and provides them with limitless ether. The Eliksni revere the Traveler as "The Great Machine", and the House of Judgment enforces law and peace.
- The Eliksni civilization is destroyed by an event known as the Whirlwind. The Traveler abandons the Eliksni around this time. In the aftermath, the House of Judgement attempts to maintain order among the survivors, but is unable to prevent the outbreak of a bloody civil war and is itself nearly eradicated. The remnants of the House of Judgment are forced into servitude by the remaining Kells.
- The Eliksni take to the stars in search of the Traveler.
- Chelchis, Kell of Stone is slain by Oryx himself, and becomes a legend amongst his people.
- At some point, the Cabal begin forging a vast interstellar Empire. They conquer the telekinetic Psions and incorporate them into the Empire as a client race. Eventually, an unknown calamity, possibly the Darkness, is believed to have struck the Cabal homeworld, forcing the Empire to flee.
The Golden Age
21st Century
- The present day - Humanity detects and tracks the Traveler as it enters the Solar System and terraforms Mercury, Venus, and the moons of Jupiter.[1] When it reaches Mars, the multinational Ares One mission is launched to make contact with it.[2] The Traveler imparts its vast knowledge to humanity,[3] spurring the colonization of the Solar System.[4] The Golden Age, a centuries-long[5] era of widespread prosperity and technological miracles, begins.[4]
Early Golden Age
- Fifty years after the Traveler's discovery, at the age of 90, Commander Jacob Hardy records his experiences from the Ares One mission in his diary and explains how the Traveler's dramatic impact on human well-being and civilization.[6]
- During the initial exploration of Venus, ancient Vex ruins are discovered. Early Vex research outposts like Campus 9 attract Earth's brightest minds, leading to a colonization rush on the planet. The researchers found the Ishtar Collective and the Ishtar Academy.[7]
- The city of Freehold is founded on Mars with the support of Clovis Bray. It becomes known as one of humanity's greatest achievements.[8][9]
Late Golden Age
- The Ishtar Collective captures a live Vex specimen and nearly go mad until a Warmind intervenes. They send a group of proxies into the Vex ruins to explore the Vex network.
- The Future War Cult is founded by members of the Ishtar Collective at Lhasa after experimenting with Vex technology.[11]
The Collapse
- The Warmind Rasputin detects the sudden arrival and rapid approach of an unidentified entity outside the Solar System. Recognizing the entity as a threat, Rasputin assumes control of humanity's defense network.[12] As all countermeasures fail to affect the entity and defeat becomes a certainty, Rasputin decides to shut down to protect itself, leaving billions of people to perish.[13][14]
- The Collapse - The Darkness, the ancient enemy of the Traveler, arrives in the Solar System, precipitating the Collapse and the abrupt end of the Golden Age. Earth's defenders are steadily beaten back until humanity is threatened with extinction. Humanity is saved only through the intervention of the Traveler,[15] which sacrifices itself to stop the Darkness.[16] With its last breath, the Traveler creates the Ghosts, to seek out those who can wield its Light as a weapon.[17]
- At some point during the Collapse, some humans seeking refuge from the Darkness flee into deep space.[18]
- The House of Devils destroys London.

The City Age
Founding the Last City
- The Last City is founded - Survivors of the Collapse, human, Awoken, and Exo, travel from far and wide to the site of the inactive Traveler, and build the Last City beneath its protective aura.[23][24][25] The City Age begins.[26]
- The Faction Wars - Power struggles between various political factions for the support of the City's refugee masses escalate into a series of violent conflicts. The Guardians, known in those days as The Risen, band together and end the bloodshed before the City is torn apart by the civil war and a new encroaching threat: the Fallen. The Consensus, a representative body through which the factions could pursue their agendas peacefully, is subsequently formed to jointly govern the City with the Speaker.[27][25]

- The Iron Lords discover the SIVA plague within the Cosmodrome. They all pledge to prevent its spread and sacrifice themselves to contain it; only Saladin Forge returned to the City.
- A fire team consisting of Praedyth, Pahanin, Kabr, and three unknown Guardians lands on Venus and breaches the Vault of Glass, hoping to destroy Atheon, along with whatever secrets the Vex have hidden there, and return to the City in glory. The assault is a disaster, as Kabr's team encounter the Templar, whose impregnable shields and powerful weapons force the team deeper into the Vault of Glass. Only Pahanin escapes the Vault. One member Praedyth is trapped by the Vex and lost in time, and the remaining Guardians are erased from existence. Kabr himself is not killed but instead goes mad, becoming obsessed with the Vex, fashioning armor and weapons from their corpses. In the end Kabr does not die but is assimilated by the Vex. In his last act Kabr creates the Aegis, a weapon capable of piercing the Templar's shields, so that future fireteams will not meet his fate.

Following Skolas's capture at the Cybele Uprising, the Wolves surrender and swear fealty to the Queen of the Reef rather than be totally destroyed.[41] The Queen seals their nobility in the Prison of Elders and allows the rest to serve as her personal guards and servants.[42][43]
