Although the stories of both the Planet Bound series and the Tsuki no Wing series are different, they do, however, share a common past. It took only one event to separate them into two parallel worlds.
Inspired by Konami's Suikoden series, the following timeline was composed with a little help from what we know of the past in the Bishoujo Senshi Sailormoon series (both anime and manga), and a few words of advice from my co-author Heero-kun.

Gundam Wing and all othe related terms and characteristics belong to Sunrise, Sotsu Agency. This timeline, as it is a fan-made work, is in no way related to Sailormoon and/or Gundam Wing canon, and belongs to me.

| The war of the gods. | A race of near immortal beings living at the center of the universe, gifted in both science and magic, stumbled into a devastating war. One side created the indestructible Chaos, who became the huge factor in deciding the outcome of the war. The final battle of the gods ended with his creators as victors. |
| The eve of Chaos | Peace was never achieved. Built solely for war, Chaos realized that his importance was lost at the advent of peace, and turned against his creators. Working together against Chaos, the gods created Eden. |
| Chaos and Eden clashed. Eden, although meant to be stronger, was just newly created and was too weak to decisively defeat her counterpart. | |
| The Universe was born. | The world of the gods was eventually destroyed due to the ensuing battle. Saddened, Eden gathered the gods' spirits into Star Seeds before Chaos could consume them, and distributed these among the scattering debris of their home (the "Big Bang"), offering each seed her strength to protect them. |
| Eden was weakened by her endeavors to save the gods, and was easily vanquished by Chaos. Chaos attempted to destroy Eden, but found that he could not, so he sealed her instead, for all eternity. | |
| Chaos created his own beings from himself, all with the sole purpose of war and mayhem, and watched contentedly as his minions fought each other. | |
| With help from Eden's strength, life was born once more on each fragments of the gods' previous home that had been planted with seeds. Eden's protective energy effectively being drained by the production of life, Chaos was finally able to send himself (in the form of his weaker, but at that time effective, minions) to such places in an attempt to destroy all free remnants of Eden. | |
| The birth of the Sailor Senshi. | The "heavenly bodies" - fragments of the gods' former home that had been planted by Eden's star seeds - that were able to escape Chaos' wrath had the chance to defend themselves when the spirits in each seed were reincarnated. |
| The reincarnated gods - revered by the people at their new homes, yet carrying the heavy burden of protecting them - created satellite castles which circled their home in an effort to ward Chaos' minions away before they were able to reach the heavenly body that they guard. Since the satellite castles seemingly "sail" across the sky based from a vantage point below, the reincarnated gods came to be called the "Sailor Senshi". | |
| Formation of alliances. | In order to effectively defend their homes from Chaos' minions, the senshis whose heavenly bodies are close to one another began to form alliances. |
| Reconstruction of ranks among the Sailor Senshi |
The many alliances created between nearby heavenly bodies, made fragile because of discord between senshi*, collapsed due to Chaos' influence with each battle as Eden further weakened as a result of her confinement. *The senshi, as reincarnated gods and rulers of their own heavenly bodies, are too proud to constantly receive orders from anybody. Effective senshi leaders appearing as a result of the war against Chaos resulted to arguments as the gods accuse each other of trying to take control of the other. |
| Wars between heavenly bodies ensued. The victor of the war between what were once allied heavenly bodies became the supreme ruler, and those that lost fall under the service of the new ruler. Other wars, in the meantime, resulted to complete destruction, much to Chaos' enjoyment. | |
| War between heavenly bodies Marduk and Tiamat. | The war held in this solar system eventually resulted to a showdown between the two most powerful planets - Marduk and Tiamat. Marduk emerged as victor, and reigns supreme among the other 9 planets. |
| In time, Tiamat began to rebel against Marduk's rule, and declared independence. Another war between the two heavenly bodies ensues, with Tiamat standing alone, while Marduk held the support of the other planets. | |
| The creation of the Moon, the Earth, and the asteroid field. | After both sides suffered heavy casualties, Marduk once more emerged victorious. Fearful as it had managed to hold out for so long despite the fact that all the other planets were against it, the Marduk ruler destroyed half of Tiamat, scattering its remains between Mars and Jupiter. All of the heavenly body's defensive satellites were destroyed except for the largest one. Half of the remaining population was moved to this satellite, while half remained at what's left of the planet. The surviving remainder of Tiamat was renamed "Earth", while its remaining satellite, not given a name, was simply called "the Earth's moon." Marduk threatened that if any communication between the Earth and its moon was established, it will destroy either one of them without mercy. |
| The owner of Tiamat's star seed was exiled on Earth, allowed to preside over his home, but is powerless over the decisions of the other 9 planets. The moon was not only powerless; it had neither representatives to Marduk's royal court, nor defenders. | |
| The birth of the Dark Moon Kingdom | A monarchy was established at the dark side of the moon in attempts to stabilize the chaos in that region. The people at the light side of the moon remained nomads, scattered in various groups. |
| Eden escapes. | After centuries of confinement, Eden gathered her remaining strength and escaped. After traveling as far as she could, by mere coincidence she temporarily sought refuge on the moon, hiding in the body of the purest soul she could find, at a village in the middle of the Sea of Serenity. |
| Enraged with Eden's escape, Chaos sets out to look for her. | |
| The arrival of the Kisenian flower and the destruction of Marduk. | One of Chaos' creations, the Kisenian flower, arrived at Marduk. Captivated by its beauty, the population became attached to it. |
| The woman Eden had sought refuge on, who was obsessed with learning about flora and fauna as her home was in reality deprived of it, studied the Kisenian flower, and with Eden's help discovered the danger it possessed. She tried to warn the rest of the solar system, but was ignored as she was from the moon. | |
| Without warning, the heavenly body Marduk was completely obliterated by the Kisenian, sparing no one; not even the owner of Marduk's star seed. The resulting blast - which dissipated the protective energy Eden had granted the planet at the beginning of the universe - endangered most of the planets of the solar system due to the unsupervised scattering of debris and the spread of the flower's seeds. | |
| Eden grants the woman's request and saves the rest of the solar system from a fate similar to Marduk. | |
| The Alliance was reborn, and the Moon Kingdom was established. | The planets witnessed the immense power coming from the woman. Grateful for having saved their lives and their home, the other planets finally recognized the moon and allowed its representatives into the Alliance, which was rebuilt after the fall of Marduk. |
| The people on the light side of the Moon, astounded that one of their own had such powers and was convinced that the woman was also a reincarnated god, revered her and made her queen. | |
| The Earth's separation. |
The owner of Tiamat's star seed refused to accept the existence of another star seed bearer coming from his former heavenly body. The ruler requested that the Moon be brought once more under Earth. The rest of the alliance disapproved his request*. Earth boldly withdrew itself from the Alliance, and to self-imposed exile. * The Moon had not objected to the Earth's proposal to reunite Tiamat. However, the rest of the heavenly bodies were afraid that the presence of two reincarnated gods in one planet would cause Tiamat to become aggressive, thus their decision not to reunite the Moon and Earth. |
| The war that almost destroyed the solar system. | The power Eden had used to protect the solar system had not gone unnoticed. Chaos arrived, looking for her. The alliance fought against him, but their homes were rendered uninhabitable as a result of their defeat. |
| The second battle between Chaos and Eden, and the loss of Earth. | The final battle of the war took place on defenseless Earth. Eden defeated Chaos at the cost of her host's life. The weapon that had been used to beat Chaos, a blade made of poisonous stone and wielded by Eden through her host, transformed into a powerful sword, soon to be known as the Holy Moon Sword. |
| The battle had devastated Earth such that not a single life on the planet remained. Chaos, after licking his wounds on the forsaken planet, escaped to safely regain his strength at his stronghold somewhere in the Universe. | |
| The formation of the Ginzuishou, and the birth of the Silver Millennium. | Eden could do nothing for Earth as it had been badly tainted by Chaos, but she provided the people of the other uninhabitable planets a means of surviving. To repay her debt to the woman who had kept her, she created a star seed from the woman's spirit, blessed it with great powers, and granted it to the woman's successors. The star seed came to be known as the Ginzuishou. Eden then left in hopes that Chaos would not harm the solar system again. |
| Owing so much to Eden and her chosen, the members of the remaining 8 planets swore loyalty and fealty to the new Queen of the Moon. The Grand Alliance of the Silver Millennium was born, with the Moon Kingdom at its supreme head. | |
| Life on Earth begins anew. | Thought to be utterly destroyed, life on Earth developed once more. However, the original protective life giving energy surrounding the Earth had been severely depleted, the result of which was a shorter lifespan for its inhabitants. |
| The Moon adopts Earth. | The Moon Kingdom, still loyal to its former master, took upon itself to protect Earth. |
| The birth of the Golden Kingdom, and the forbidden contact between Earth and Moon. | The reincarnated god of Tiamat was reborn once more, his star seed granting him a life as long as the other gods of the solar system. Along with his generals, he unified the nomadic people of Earth and established the Golden Kingdom. |
| The generals the King had chosen had long lives and powers of their own, which mystified the members of the Silver Millennium. It was discovered that their magical abilities had spawned from Chaos' own lingering energy on the forsaken planet. Protective of Eden's chosen, it has been agreed at the Silver Millennium's court that the Moon Kingdom be forbidden to interact with Earth once again. | |
| The arrival of the Snow Queen. | The Snow Queen wandered its way towards the Solar System, attracted by the odd, opposing energies that the beautiful yet forsaken Earth possessed. Her arrival was unspotted until it was almost too late. The "Silver Crystal Power" was developed to prevent the Moon queen from using the powers of the Ginzuishou too much. The combined power of the senshi blasted the Snow Queen away. |
| The separation of the Silver Millennium Senshi into two groups. |
In order to avoid sudden attacks such as that of the Snow Queen, the Senshi were separated into two groups. One group protected the Silver Millennium from elements beyond the grand alliance, while the other group took the role as royal guards and protected the solar system from the elements within*. *The elements that the royal guards fought were mainly remnants of Chaos which had been left behind when he had occupied the solar system in his search for Eden. |
| Pioneer work on man machines begins. | Because of all the ever-present threats, the Moon scientist Daedalus began the design concept of the "Perfect Defense Weapon." |
| The Golden Era of the Silver Millennium begins. | The ??th Queen Serenity ascends the throne and rules the Moon Kingdom and the Silver Millennium. |
| The Senshi of the present time were born and trained. | |
| "Zero" denied. | Daedalus completed the first man machine frame "Zero". He presented it to Queen Serenity and proposed its mass production. Abhorred at the destructive potential of the man machine, the court denied his request. |
| The cat ambassadors arrives. | A convoy arrived from the planet Mau in dire need of assistance. They were well received by the Silver Millennium. As a sign of gratitude, Mau presented the highly trained and loyal ambassadors Luna and Artemis to the Moon Kingdom. Luna became the queen's right hand, where as Artemis handled military affairs. |
| After their predecessor's resignation as senshi, Sailorvenus was assigned as Leader of the Royal Guard, and overall Senshi commander. | |
| Lunar and Terran reconciliation begins. | Deciding that the Earth's exile had gone far enough, the Silver Millennium, with the Moon Kingdom at the forefront of the negotiations, attempted to reestablish communications with the Golden Kingdom. Princess Serenity meets the successor to Tiamat's star seed, Prince Endymion. The Inner Senshi meets the prince's present Guardians. |
| Metallia arrives. | Impatient with his inability to find Eden, Chaos sends Metallia to destroy Eden's most visible presence in the Universe - the Silver Millennium. |
| As Earth was already tainted with Chaos' negative energy, it was not difficult for Metallia to cause discord on the forsaken planet. The signs of eminent destruction came by means of a meteor shower with signified Metallia's arrival, and the sun's violent activity suddenly increased. The senshi failed to recognize these signs. | |
| Death of a great, unrecognized, and insane genius. | After completing the Zero System, Daedalus died. |
| Terran war takes place on Earth. | Distrustful of the people on the Moon; envy brought about by their rulers' long lives; and further compounded by Metallia's influence, a civil war took place on Earth. Discussions between the Golden Kingdom and the Moon Kingdom came to an abrupt halt, and interaction was forbidden so long as a potential threat remained on Earth. |
| The fall of the Golden Kingdom. | The generals were soon unwillingly overtaken by the dark powers that they possessed, and turned against the Golden Kingdom. Prince Endymion escaped. Beryl, puppet regent of Metallia and leader of the rebel forces, was pronounced as the new queen of Earth. |
| The fall of the Moon Kingdom. |
Further deceived that the so-called "protector" of the Earth - the Moon Kingdom - will declare war on them so that the prince who had escaped would be brought back to the Golden throne, the Terrans took the Moon Kingdom by surprise*. Unprepared for the war, the Moon Kingdom fell along with the Senshi. *The members of the Silver Millennium had not expected that the magic-less Terrans would be able to find a way to get to the Moon, and in such a short time as well, since the civil war had just ended the day before. They did not expect Metallia's presence. |
| The queen's sacrifice. | After witnessing the destruction of her kingdom and the death of her daughter, Queen Serenity used the Ginzuishou to defeat the evil army and seal Metallia away. With her last remaining strength, she sent the Senshi's star seeds, along with her daughter's and the Terran prince's, to Earth. |
| Cat ambassadors Luna and Artemis were placed in a dreamless sleep until the star seeds rejuvenate once more. | |
| The destruction of the Silver Millennium | Without their protectors, and without the help of the Ginzuishou - Eden's only consistent presence in the solar system - the rest of the heavenly bodies became near uninhabitable once more. Millions perished. The forsaken Earth, poisoned by the taint of Chaos, became lifeless once more. |
| (Tsuki no Wing) Survivors from the Moon Kingdom, saved by the Ginzuishou at the very last moment, drifted off into unknown space. | |
