The information in this article is from a fan game or fan fiction and is therefore not canon.


For official timeline variants, see King's Quest Timeline.

The POP timeline is an unofficial timeline based on information from the The Silver Lining and Four Winds from Phoenix Online Publishing (it is loosely based on the POP timeline (classic)). DC = Daventry's Creation

This timeline places KQ7 at about 24 years after KQ1. In comparison; The AGDI timeline places KQ7 about 22 years after KQ1, the BI timeline places KQ7 about 22 years after KQ1, and the IA timeline timeline places KQ7 about 24 or 26 years after KQ1 (KQ7 takes place before KQ4).

Note: TSL/FWs takes a few liberties from older games in places, but for the most part sticks to the original games. The differences are discussed it's own section.

Notes

  • The game starts on the 21st birthday of Alex and Rosella.
  • The Quartz tower (unofficial) is the place where Graham rescued his wife more than twenty years before TSL.
  • Graham and Valanice have been married for more than twenty years.[13]
  • Graham mentions he had been king for several years before he married Valanice (thus the KQ2 manual is ignored)[14]. Though some references suggest he was only a king a year.
  • The war between the Black and Silver Cloaks occured one thousand years before TSL.[15]
  • Alhazred lived in the castle for fifteen years[16]
  • Alexander returned to Daventry shortly before his eighteenth birthday.[17]
  • The Four Winds take place roughly within the year between MOE and TSL.
  • See also TSL timeline (classic)
  • The Four Winds states the twins were born 21 years before the issue[18], twenty-one years before 1817 (however, a banner in TSL states that they celebrate 21st birthday in 1818). Four Winds should actually say 20 years before the issue (not 21).
  • The narrator claims that Alexander told his father that the Isle of the Crown has prospered in the last few years, and that the booming economy leading to the growth of the town and allowing its people to live comfortably. There has only been about 1-2 year since KQ6 (other in-game information and Four Winds state that the economy had been dead until only very recently).
  • Cassima was a lave under Mordack for a couple of years.

Misc. References

  • Jollo: If I'd spent the last twenty years of my life in Daventry, I'd be comatose, too.
  • Narrator: It pains Graham to think that the former princess was locked in this room for nearly half a year before his son was valiant enough to rescue her.
  • Hassan: Fifteen years with that scheming warthog inside the castle walls...
  • Shamir: A thousand years ago, there existed a dark cult of the worst and most evil wizards in the world
  • Graham: And besides that, I'm married, and have been for more than twenty years.
  • Black Widow: Besides, twenty years of being chained to your spouse deserves some kind of...
  • Narrator: Here for thousands of years past, and surely for thousands of years yet to come, but as old and as wise as the stones of the Sacred Circle are, Graham sadly cannot find the answers he seeks here.
  • Ranger: After a thousand years, the seals have begun to lose their power, and now he can exit his prison.
  • Narrator: Cassima told Valanice this was her favorite dressing screen. It was a gift given to her for her sixteenth birthday.
  • Graham: You've been toying with me for the last five years or so...

Differences between TSL and official games

  • In the TSL timeline, the ferry is restored after the wedding (according to Saladin in KQ6, the ferry was restored before the wedding).
  • TSL places KQ2 about 2 years after KQ1. In official sources, KQ2 is set either 1 year or 3 years after KQ1 (although KQ7 Authorized Guide suggests that there may be 1 or 2 years between KQ1 and KQ2).
  • TSL places the birth of the twins about 2 years after KQ2. In official sources the twins are said to be born 1 or 2 years after KQ2.
  • TSL, places with Alexander's kidnapping 1 year after his birth. In the official material Alexander was kidnapped between 1 year or six months after his birth depending on the source.
