The entirety of Korainian civilisation takes place over 417 cycles (roughly 500 Earth years). These cycles encompass every narrative of WOKU, from its inception to its conclusion. To navigate this vast history, an understanding of the distinct Historical, Modern, and Ultimate Eras is crucial. To begin, it’s important to note that each era is marked by multiple dating systems;
MI CAL
'MI CAL' stands for Mother Isles Calendar - The dating system used before Korainians fled to Uji. The dating begins at -29 MI CAL, which signifies 29 cycles before the environmental disasters that changed the course of Korainian civilisation. This dating system is used mostly for Historical Era experiences.
BL/AL
'BL’ and ‘AL’ stand for ‘Before Law’ and ‘After Law’. This dating system is used mostly in the Modern Era and is signposted by The Mainland Government’s institution of The Soulmate Law - a cultural phenomenon among Korainians on Uji.
NU
'NU’ stands for New Uji. This dating system is used towards the end of The Modern Era and throughout the Ultimate Era.
The Historical, Modern, and Ultimate Eras are sectioned by three key narrative events that greatly affect Korainian kind. As an earthbound observer, with the greater context of every Korainian narrative, you may find it entertaining to discern what those events may be. Either way, you can explore every in-world experience WOKU has to offer according to its era either through
