Antiquity

500-401 BC

• According to scientific research, Harran's gates’ foundations in Old Town can be traced back to the 5th century BC - same as the city walls and other fortifications.[1] This includes the first watchtower on the site of what would later become the Harran City Museum..[2]

Middle ages

• Modern Harran (the city known today) was originally settled in the Middle-Ages as an open city; a center of trade and commerce. The original building on the site of the Old Granary is constructed and initially serves as a temple.[3]

930 AD

• The settlement of Gresburg (now Villedor) is founded on St Paul's Isle, in the Turzawa River circa 930 AD. The surrounding area is marshland prone to flooding, leading to the construction of a dam around this time.

• Construction begins on St Paul's Church on the site of a former pagan temple in Gresburg.

1033 AD

• Gresburg receives its city charter and is renamed to Villedor by King Engelram IV. The city soon develops into a thriving trade hub.

He was expulsed as a scapegoat for the higher ups for the virus leak incident. At the time, only an epidemic, with the first cases in Zurich and Paris, the plague spread like wildfire as it is deadly and highly transmissible. It is now deemed THV and a variant of the 2014 strain. She recommends immediate action: All European borders must be closed immediately and all civilian air and rail services suspended. National governments must introduce civil procedures as follows: Isolate individuals thought to be infected, quarantine anyone in close contact with them, issue shelter at home orders immediately, and dead bodies should be incinerated. This will help slow the spread of the virus. They need time to make a vaccine with help of private sector in the coming weeks.

• December 19th: GRE Head Doctor, Dr. Katsumi, records her 2nd report on the THV pandemic. A news report starts circulating about the leak originating from a GRE lab and damages their credibility in the eyes of the world. The THV strain is far more contagious than previously known. Tested in Villedor and the other 20 candidate cities, only Antizin and UV light can stop the spread of the virus, but it doesn't eliminate it from the body. It is expected that in a few weeks more than half of humanity will be infected. Phase II of Protocol is recommended: Governments should outlaw: operation of any business not deemed an "essential" service, gatherings of more than 4 people not sharing the same household, free movement by any civilians who are not first responders or essential workers.

An individual named Dr Kobayashi (labelled Dr Katsumi in the subtitles) announces that the first tests of the THV-GenMod compound have been successful, being highly chemically stable and having a remarkable ability to degrade the DNA of infected cells. General Pratt calls for THV-GenMod samples to be provided to the Army for experimentation, but Dr Kobayashi objects on the grounds that it is too soon and that, historically, rushing can lead to catastrophe. General Pratt submits a motion for the GRE to provide samples to the army and submit to military supervision over the GRE itself. The motion passes 5-3. In addition to Dr Kobayashi and General Pratt, some of those in attendance are individuals named "Hughes", Bastien" and "Klapovskiy".

• September 22nd: At 11:12 am, an unnamed woman relating to the Council of Mankind sends a voice message instructing someone she loves to find a gun and some ammo she has hidden and to go to the the Mount Lucid Observatory Council where she will meet them just before 4pm in order to leave Villedor.

General Pratt orders the clinic to be quarantined with immediate effect. General Pratt also tells Dr Kobayashi that he is shutting down the VNC Tower transmitter.

• Late 2024: A mutiny occurs and General Pratt dies, though it is unclear as to whether his death is related to said mutiny.

• October: Dr Kobayashi, distressed, gives her final GRE report on the state of the epidemic, this time without specifying a concrete date. She states that GRE scientists are finally getting positive results in tests but that the riots have gotten out of control. Rumors have spread reminding the people that the GRE was responsible for the virus in the first place. She adds that defamatory flyers against the GRE have been circulated and that some of her colleagues suspect the Army of this. She also adds that Pratt has "cut off communications with the GRE" and that it appears that the Army is attempting to use the GRE as a scapegoat "for all this turmoil". At the end of the recording, an unidentified group of individuals break in, shouting that Kobayashi is "one of those murderin' doctors". Dr Kobayashi insists she is trying to help, though it appears that she is then killed by the intruders. Her last words are "If you blame science, we're all going to d-".

He adds that they did not respect Pratt, believing he had lost control of the situation along time ago and that he was incapable of making difficult decisions. Addressing Williams directly, he claims that they have "a lot of respect" for him. Posner also states that he has spoken with Jack Matt, who did not mention Williams, which is significant. Posner adds that Matt has a group of loyal soldiers at his beck and call, that he "clearly revels in his power" and that he exhibits the behavior of someone who will always seek more power. Poser ends the report by saying that he will soon find out of Williams can count on Matt.

2025

• January 3rd: Cpt. Posner records a report to Colonel Williams. As ordered to continue his observation, he finds that Major Matt is an efficient commander, greatly respected by others, and runs a tight ship. When informed of a possible THV GenMod bombardment, he reacted with great agitation and considers the act too risky as he believes that there could be other ways to save Villdeor. Posner confirms William's reliability concerns with Jack Matt by stating he gives the impression of being unpredictable and without due respect of chain of command. Jack barely conceals his dislike for Williams due to the belief he stymied Matts career and holds a grudge. He ends the report by stating it's unprofessional and potentially dangerous.

• January 6th: At 8:00 AM, the Black Monday bombings occur in which the military under Colonel Chris Williams ordered aerosolized THV Gen-Mod to be dropped onto areas of Villedor, assumed evacuated but in reality still inhabited, via drones, military trucks, and planes. Manufactured as a weapon against the infected to save the citizens, spreading the chemicals turned out to be a huge mistake as, mixed with water, the chemicals penetrated the soil, killing plants and turning most people into infected. Those who survived the chemical raid took refuge on the rooftops. This resulted in the death of two million citizens, sometimes equated to half the population of Villedor, The Colonel was subsequently dubbed "The Butcher". This event is shown in detail in the Dying Light 2 Stay Human prequel comic "Banshee - I Am The Cure".

• January 6th: Cpt. Posner records a report to Colonel Williams. He starts by saying the THV GenMod bombing ended tragically with thousands to possibly hundreds of thousands dead. He states the infected the GenMod was intended to kill, simply rose back up. He went to a nearby outpost to restock, but the ammo rack was destroyed. Matt and his some of his men were there, but many died in the bombing. Matt claims he received no orders, wasn't warned, and wasn't evacuated.

• Colonel Williams prevents Villedor from being destroyed by missiles that were intended as a fail-safe against the spread of the THV contained within.

• February 10th: Cpt. Posner records a report for Colonel Williams. He states that Major Jack Matt's rebellion is gaining momentum, with many soldiers joining him believing Williams intentionally neglected to inform Matt of the evacuation and left his squad to die. Posner retorts by stating according to his investigation received the order but ignored it and is responsible for the tragedy himself. Now Matt is hiding that from the others. The civilians now hate the Army and attacks are being led by Juan Rainer as head of the Revolutionary Committee. Rainer and Matt have joined forces and started a Civil War/a Revolution against the army. Old Villedor is where most of the fighting is being done where many soldiers have died, and morale is low. It was brother vs brother and Matt is the main target for the Army.

• May 7th: Cpt. Posner records a report for Colonel Williams. Jack Matts men have now regrouped on an Old Container ship in the Central Loop known as the Missy. Here the Peacekeepers were now being formed where they have their own hierarchy and military ranks led by Matt himself. Posner claims Matt has delusions of grandeur even though he is a traitor as he has broken his military oath and his men now plead allegiance to him alone. Their slogan is Dignity, Peace, Brotherhood, all the while Posner claims since Matt started the Civil War, he's a hypocrite for boasting those ideas. He is labeled as a "sick, dangourous man". His main goal is to kill The Colonel to keep the truth about him hidden. The Army has a man on the ship who feeds them intel so they can kill Matt first.

• June 11th: Cpt. Posner records a report for Colonel Williams. Posner is heavily breathing as he is injured while recording his final message. He had Matt with his back against the wall until he stabbed Posner in the gut. He says The Army lost the Triumphal Arch, but they can't lose hope, and that somebody needs to stop Matt as the fate of the people can't be in the hands of such a man. He hopes his men will deliver his tape to Colonel Williams and ends the tape with "Colonel... It was an honor to serve with you." before presumedly dying.
