Most of this “time” has no reckoning in years. The beings involved with Helca at these moments have no strict linear concept of time, or are not impacted by its passing. After this time was Time of Green Paths.
The formation of the planet, its accretion, and the subsequent bombardment stage as the solar system was formed was accelerated by the presence of a unnaturally massive amount of Equitus in it, imposing quick order in the solar system.
Helca was eventually discovered by the Greate Ones after a billion or so years. It was a marvel of order to them. The entire solar system had taken far less time than normal, and had stabilized. The degeneration of the solar system, even to a slight degree of slowing down the sun’s processes, was already in place. The Greate Ones knew the solar system could last 10 billion years before it began to decay. This was an unexpected marvel to them (‘unexpected’ being something that happens only a few times in the eternity of the Greate Ones), and something which must be secured at all cost. They did not want the Olde Ones to discover it, and so they drew young dragons to it, like a beacon.
And so, drawn by the Equitus and magic of the Greate Ones, the dragons arrived. They laid down in rivers, oceans, mountain valleys and grasslands of an active planet. Their dreams, augmented by the Equitus Helca/Monarch’s CrystalEquitus[/su_permalink, quieted the tectonic activity and sheathed the planet in the dreams of dragons. This prevented it from being seen or sensed by Olde Ones seeking the destruction of the Equitus crystals. And so, the planet was allowed to slowly develop and mature safely.
