@Jay_Knight13@EliteEsports That’s the point, the seasons name is runners that’s what we have to do with the sprites run with them away from people or run to chase people it gives the game more excitement
@OrderedSpy I think it’s people just trying to have fun, roleplaying a such, tying into the whole choose a side theme, propaganda being made is just creativity at its finest as another way of enjoying this game. Fights I don’t think are problem if it’s about this as there not real ���
The Storyline Just got COMPLICATED...🚨
The Dark Voyager doesn't actually originate from OUR past. He comes from an altered, separate timeline running parallel to ours...also known as Reality Unknown. But, he's not the only one. The Visitor (Reality Unknown), previously revealed in OG Season 4, is CONFIRMED by The Order to be an alternate reality/timeline version of OUR Visitor, meaning all of OG fits this description now. 🌌
This suddenly explains ALOT. All of the same, but different characters; many of which seem to be working for The Last Reality (Drift, Lynx, Ice King). The Dark Voyager was never seen in OG Season 3, because the one that's in Reality 266 IS that Voyager. We finally know why his Reality is redacted in his name, too. It's because the reveal is that his true name is likely Dark Voyager (Reality Unknown). ☄️
While the reasons for this alternate timeline existing is not yet confirmed, it could be a result of Jones' time travel back in Chapter 4: OG. Having accidentally altered the past, it branched off the storyline into an entirely separate series of events -- a whole new timeline. And via TLR's grand plans, the Dark Voyager from the Unknown Timeline has been actively helping them re-piece the Zero Point back together...in OUR timeline. 🔵
But it seems like it might become pretty difficult for Voyager soon, because his version of The Visitor is actively hunting him down -- for reasons not yet known. Whatever happened in this reality/timeline seems very different than our events, so only time will tell. I'm curious to see how this plays out, this plot is honestly SICK!! 👀🔥

Did Fortnite REVEAL a HUGE Retcon⁉️
When rewatching the official Fortnite Story Recap, something strange appears. The Loop Bubble is shown popping from Fracture and transitioning DIRECTLY into the result of the Big Bang, with this sentence being spoken as it happens:
- "The Conflict ended with the Zero Point shattered and strewn across all realities" 💥
This line comes directly after Jones' explains the IO vs Seven War, which took place throughout Chapter 2 & 3, with Fracture finishing off the storyline. This "conflict" did NOT continue into Chapter 4...and not a single line was spoken about the events that took place in that chapter, or Jones' time travel leading to the Big Bang. While Chapter 5 wasn't shown either, the difference is there really isnt anything on a big enough scale that happened that chapter except for Hope's introduction that would need to be shown to us for the overall storyline to make sense...but Jones' being the cause of the Big Bang was a pivotal plot point. This begs a seriously huge question -- Did Fortnite retcon Chapter 4? 💭
I know this is automatically going to be a scary topic for people, but I think this is VERY important to discuss since this is the FIRST EVER official Storyline Recap we've received from Fortnite, and they specifically didn't acknowledge how the Zero Point ACTUALLY shattered - Jones traveling back in time. We all know Chapter 4 was all over the place with unfinished plots, and also didn't arrive to us as intended due to developmental issues at Epic during this time. If we take a second to even entertain the idea that Chapter 4 "didnt happen"...it could actually work nicely. 💡
The Herald and The Last Reality succeed in their plan of destroying the Zero Point -- they shatter it in Fracture. This causes a HUGE Big Bang to occur, reorganizing everything and sending Shards of the Zero Point across all realities. Jones arrives to Hope's Home Reality after Fracture, and the Shard Storyline begins from there. ☄️
This takes out a huge unnecessary gap of time, when really nothing much happened. The Shapeless Man storyline was abandoned (for now), MEGA didn't do anything but lead to Wilds, which reintroduced Slone (we'll get to this in a second), and Last Resort was entirely themed after getting the Time Machine for the Big Bang, with Kado Thorne dying the same season. I ALSO would like to mention that Jones was quite literally absent the ENTIRE Chapter except for the end...our main character of the storyline. As you can see, nothing of importance to the overall plot of the Storyline ever occured this Chapter except for the dead-beginning, except for Dr Slone appearing later on, which could now easily be revisited in MUCH better ways...🌌
If Chapter 4 is retconned, how could the Shapeless man & Doctor Slone be used again? It's simple. For Doctor Slone, we have no idea where she's even been since Big Bang. She appeared briefly, helped the Island escape a full-reality collapse, and then has been MIA since Big Bang. They can return Slone however they'd like, because it really doesn't make much of a difference between us having last seen her in Collision, or in Last Resort. Her interactions with Jones in OG are the only important pieces, which I feel like they could still never reference given the interesting relationship those 2 characters have anyway. Perhaps all of these years without the Imagined Order has unclouded Slone's judgement, so she acts friendlier to Jones when they reunite again, just as they did in the original OG. 🤝
As for the Shapeless Man, he was introduced & teased by Rift Warden Stellan, but never actually arrived in-game, or was referenced...ever again. If (or when) the Shapeless Man does appear again, Epic could really do whatever they want given how little we know about this character in the first place. If it's Geno, it's truly as simple as just reestablishing Geno back into the Storyline in modern day. The Shapeless Man doesn't need to ever be referenced again, because we can assume it would've just been him working in the shadows anyway if thats what they intended. 🏰
I know this is very out of nowhere, but the order of events they described in the OFFICIAL Story Recap felt very intentional, so I wanted to touch on this idea that they perhaps decided Chapter 4 is better off retconned. ALL of the characters introduced this chapter would still exist, including the Triarchy, the Ancients, etc, because they all exist out there in the Omniverse. The "retcon" would purely be that the Island never occured -- Fracture shattered the Zero Point and restarted the Omnniverse, all to The Last Reality's plan. 🛸
Things that would no longer have happened:
- Zero Fusion + Paradigm's "Sacrifice"
- AMIE leaving in the Rift gate, lines about the Seven being "Sculpted Anew" (lines up with The Order's sudden appearance, and the way she talks about the Seven)
- Slone's Return in Wilds
- Kado Thorne's death
- Jones travelling back in time
- Big Bang caused by Jones
Things that WOULD still have happened:
- Events of early Oathbound + Stellan's hauntings, just in their home reality
- Some of the Seven being in possession of TLR, since this happened in Fracture
- Triarchy and other characters still exist, just weren't dragged into Asteria
- Unseen + Nox invading MEGA City and wiping TLR database, just in their home reality instead
- *Possibly* Slone's character arc, just off-screen wherever they want her to have been
- Kado Thorne's Time Machine + messing with the past
Let me know your thoughts (respectfully, please! I know conversation regarding retcons can get some people angry). Nothing is confirmed, this is just speculation. 🙏

❗The Imagined Order is still present here's why (thread)❗:
Chapter 4 season 4 Slone sent Jones back in time to prevent The Last Reality from being able to capture The Zero Point while there was no one to be able to protect it from that happening with both The Imagined Order
