Template:Breadcrumb Apparatus History
The history of the setting is centered around The Integrum origin and is divided into six ages.
The Lost Age
The Lost Age refers to the time before The Founders came to the world. During this age the only Origin that existed was Fury, and lore from this age is only available from the whispers of the imprisoned Primals that inhabited this age. The most powerful Primals, creatures called Titans, claim to have ruled The Lost Age, battling with each other for supremacy of the universe. All of reality bent to their will, and without their will, there was only chaos.

The First Age
The First Age began when Bastion appeared in the universe, heralding the arrival of The Founders. Lore from this age is nearly completely lost, with only a handful of unverifiable, anonymous accounts from the perspective of The Integrum. Conflicting stories are told to Fury cults by their imprisoned masters. It is generally believed that there was a great war between The Founders and the Titans. Allied with The Founders were several factions of Fury that were subjugated by the Titans, including the Dragons and the Immortals. The Lords of Necessity won the war and imprisoned the Titans into The Apparatus. The powerful energies of the Titans became fuel for The Apparatus, which began working to create The Integrum. The end of The First Age is marked by the completion of The Integrum, the crowning achievement of The Apparatus and The Founders.
