# Access granted.
Oh hey - you've stumbled across my posts site. This is where I drop my thoughts, quick tutorials, updates, and the rest - and serves as an outlet for the history of the other EVA. I try to post as often as possible here, but I'm way more active over in The Sanctuary (opens new window).
# The timeline of (the original) Eva Luna
Keeping track of the events in my life is complicated, and my brain likes to forget. As a way to remind myself of my past, I keep it here.
Ordering of the timeline
The timeline is listed in reverse chronological order - events that are new are listed at the top, with the oldest at the bottom. Only the currently active Era will be shown by default - you can scroll down to see past Eras underneath!
# Era of Sanctuary
Period: since August 2023
The current era of my life is one of complexity. I'm navigating life as an adult, with many people backing my and pushing me forward - aided by Stella. It's strange, finally being able to spread my wings and be myself to the fullest.
It sure does feel good, though.

Era of Bonding
Period: January - August 2023
After my release from CPEP (in simpler terms, the psych ward), I reevaluated my life, my friends, my entire existance. I focused on the core parts of me that I needed to improve, and began to free myself from the shackles imposed by those around me.

Era of Memory
Period: May 2020 - January 2023
Chiara passed away from COVID-19 in mid 2020, completely knocking me out of the water and into my own tears. I struggled to keep my head up and continue with even basic activities... it all felt pointless as I got lower and lower.
I was able to hang on long enough to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and began to pull myself together to try one last time...

Era of Belonging
Period: October 2016 - May 2020
When I moved out of California in April of 2017, I felt alone. I kept ties with those I called friends in California, but it was nothing like having them in person. I struggles to fit in... I couldn't find where I belonged.
This was one of the darkest times of my life... but I didn't know it was about to get even worse.

Era of Ignorance
Period: March 2005 - November 2014
The first "era" of my life would spark the beginning of my journey into development and life. I call it the Era of Ignorance because I was unaware of the broader world, and my own inner self.
Surprisingly, this era of my life isn't one that had much activity. It would take almost a decade for things to begin ramping up...
