This page helps keep track of key events during the story.

Most of the events during the course of the story take place in the year 108 ANE. There are also some "flash backs" to earlier years.

In order to build mystery and suspense, even the events of 108 ANE are not presented to the reader in the order they happen.

Day 1
Counting "Day 1" as the day of the meeting between Leone and Sybil as shown in the first scene.

Events for this day that are only implied in the story: Set captures a technician working for Sybil and he uses his telepathic powers to learn where Leone's ship is programmed to go. Set starts his own trip to Flammis.

Day 2
Events for this day are only implied in the story: Leone and Aristark leave Sakkara on their way to Flammis.

Day 3
Set's ship attacks Flammis. See Chapter 13.

Day 4
Assuming a day to exit the Memphis star system and another day to reach Flammis after the hyperspatial jump, then the events in Chapter 1 near Flammis are on day 4 (three days after Sybil tells Leone to go to Flammis).

Most of Chapter 2 also takes place on Day 4.

The first page section of Chapter 3 (showing Ketar anticipating the success of Leone's mission to find Ketar) is on day 4.

Is there where Ketar's meeting with Set takes place? (see the last page section of Chapter 8)

Day 5
The hyperspatial jump at the end of Chapter 2 takes place during Day 5.

Most of Chapter 3 is on Day 5 after Leone's ship enters the Akara system.
