When It All Began	comment	A single very significant moment, related to the fate of every single main character, and driving the entire plot, that happened before the beginning of the story. That event will probably be discussed, interpreted, viewed through flashbacks, and a The Reveal might show its true meaning later. In cases where the characters have any way of interfering with the past, this event will be their target. Since these events are more exciting, and more detailed than your average background story, they are frequently used as the setting for a Prequel. The lines "Everything started x years ago", or "It all began when..." are very likely to be uttered. See also Great Offscreen War and How Dad Met Mom. Not to be confused with Where It All Began, which entails returning to a familiar place for the finale (though they can overlap if Time Travel is involved, specifically in cases of Set Right What Once Went Wrong).

And even at the fic's end, Jonah's meddling with Ghidorah's DNA and Ghidorah's manipulation of him has left far-reaching ramifications for the expanded AbraxasVerse, in the form of the Zmeyevich scattered around the world.

When It All Began / int_30a5ebfd	comment	Naruto, where the Fourth Hokage seals the Nine-Tailed Fox into a baby (Naruto) when the Fox attacked Konoha. The act cost the beloved Fourth Hokage his life, which becomes very significant later on. Later, we learn that The Fourth Hokage is actually Naruto's father, and that Naruto's mother was the previous host of the Nine-Tailed Fox. Chapters 500 - 504 (or more) depict the events of that night, from their perspective. We get another one from the First Hokage himself describing first his final battle with Madara, then flashing back to their childhood and the wartorn world both had to grow up in. And still another when the Sage of the Six Paths explains how he created the Tailed Beasts and the very concept of Ninja, along with the origin of the feud between the Senju and Uchiha clans that drove so much of the story.

When It All Began / int_31ca9925	comment	The Dukes of Hazzard: The seventh-season premiere of the series saw the Dukes and Cooter say, "Happy Birthday, General Lee." The episode establishes several key things that became part of the official series' bible. Set in 1976 (more than two years before the series' premiere), Bo and Luke, freshly placed on probation for illegal transportation of alcohol, purchase a banged-up Dodge Charger to compete in one of Boss Hogg's races; Daisy is a recent high school graduate who gets a job at Hogg's Boar's Nest. The General Lee, in its previous life, had been owned by a jewel thief and his girlfriend, who â€“ after robbing a jewelry store â€“ stash the booty in the dashboard, but then crash the car. Since the car's owner was in jail and forfeited it, Bo and Luke are able to purchase the car, soup it up and use it to foil every one of Boss' countless schemes.

When It All Began / int_3e8c09b9	comment	Several times in Attack on Titan. The first chapter starts with an introduction into the main characters as innocent kids with a loving family before the sudden appearance of the Colossal Titan, so large that it actually stands a full ten meters taller than the already fifty-meter walls surrounding the last bastion of humanity in a world overrun by titans. The Colossal Titan kicks in the gate, allowing titans to pour into the main characters' home and start slaughtering people. Then the Armored Titan appears, its entire body covered in armor that is invulnerable to even cannonfire, and busts through the inner gate with sheer momentum, allowing the titans to flood into the outer ring of the Walled Kingdom, resulting in the deaths of almost a third of humanity, which kicks off the plot. Then the Colossal and Armored Titans disappear and are not seen again for years. This day, and what leads up to it, are then retold from a different perspective: the perspective of the wielders of the Colossal and Armored Titans, who were in fact merely kids themselves, terrified and scared for their lives, believing that they were on a mission to save the world. Late in the story, we are also shown the origin of the Titans and how it all started.

When It All Began / int_59151283	comment	Although it's not really apparent until the end of the series, pretty much everything that happens in the Metal Gear universe has its roots in August 1964, the Virtuous Mission which sparked Operation Snake Eater and led to the creation of the Patriots, as shown in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, chronologically the first game. The best example? The Boss's last wish: a unified world. Big Boss's and Zero's differing interpretations of that wish and how to fulfill it lead to almost everything that happens in the rest of the series, including the creation of Outer Heaven and the creation of the Patriots, which leads directly to the events of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and 4.

Said episode also chronicles the first Spanish lessons, the first Fake Interactivity prompts and challenges, and especially the first Travel Song. The only bit that does not get an origin was the "We Did It" song at the end. "Backpack" in the first season is a more minor example, as it shows detail on how Dora first got her sentient Backpack as a gift from Mami and Papi and her first time asking her for what she needs, how she read Map for the first time, and especially the very first three-picture pop-up sequence Dora uses when passing a location.

When It All Began / int_74a4c713	comment	It's a little more complicated than that. As detailed in Kingdom Hearts χ, before the Keyblade War, five Unions of Keyblade wielders gathered Lux to drive off the coming darkness detailed in the Union's Foretellers' Books of Prophecy, given to them by their Master. As things escalated to the Keyblade War, Kingdom Hearts plunged into the Realm of Darkness, the X-Blade that could unlock Kingdom Hearts, and that all Keyblades were modeled after shattered into twenty pieces, seven light, and thirteen dark, and the world fell to the darkness. Light from those who survived the war recreated the worlds in their fractured form. Since then, Big Bad Xehanort has been trying to reforge the X-Blade, first by attempting to balance Ventus and Vanitas's hearts (originally Ventus's whole heart), and made a proto-X-Blade, which Aqua shattered. His Heartless, Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, tried to reach Kingdom Hearts by drowning worlds in darkness, while his Nobody, Xemnas, tried to insert pieces of his heart into thirteen candidates, the Organization XIII, of which only two succeeded before Sora brought that crashing down. But he knew he'd fail at both of those goals, so in Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance], he assembles a new Organization consisting of himself, his younger self, his Heartless, Nobody, and nine others to clash with seven guardians of light. And sure enough, that clash finally happens in Kingdom Hearts III, and he finally succeeds... only for Sora to defeat him once more.

Since the entire episode runs backwards with each scene explaining all the ones that came before it, this event is implied to have been the underlying cause for everything else in the plot — and potentially even for everything that has happened in every episode on the show.

When It All Began / int_7cf5a07	comment	The Nora Allen murder case is the main driving mystery for most of The Flash (2014) Season 1. Eobard Thawne the Reverse-Flash travelled back in time to murder young Barry Allen. Fortunately, Barry Allen of the future/The Flash was right in his heels, and thwarted Thawne. Thawne decided to take Nora's life as consolation instead. Thawne learns too late that his skirmish with the Flash caused him to lose his connection to the Speed Force, leaving him Trapped in the Past, setting off most of the events of the Season. That's not the end of it, as Season 2 ended with Barry travelling back in time to stop Thawne from murdering Nora, which created the alternate reality Flashpoint, which then led to further problems in the next season. The Particle Accelerator "accident" in Season 1 is also a byproduct of the aforementioned murder mystery, but it has its own merits as the reason for the rise of superpowers in the whole Arrowverse franchise.

When It All Began / int_7dea6132	comment	Brawl of the Objects: The show itself isn't canonically the first Brawl of the Objects to happen. The creator of the series, Antony Kos, provided several hints for a Brawl of the Objects that happened before the show. Probably one of the biggest ones happens to be in "Rookie Mistakes," where Rook had a flashback where he was in a similar racing challenge that Shieldy and Shelly went to in "How it All Ended." Anthony eventually posted a video called "The Rook Explanation Video", which explains the finale of the original, fictionally medieval BOTO.

When It All Began / int_8aaeda7e	comment	The MonsterVerse franchise which spawned from Godzilla (2014) has a couple major points: Although the details have been massively overhauled via Canon Discontinuity in the Monarch: Legacy of Monsters series; the aftermath of the atomic bombings of Japan led to the founding of the franchise-central, monster-hunting, quasi-governmental agency Monarch. The events of the original 2014 movie wherein Godzilla's and Kaiju's existence was exposed to the world amid the destructions of Honolulu (called "G-Day Minus Two" through to "G-Day") have lasting ramifications across every MonsterVerse instalment that chronologically takes place afterwards, directly or indirectly catalyzing the entire conflicts of Godzilla: King of the Monsters and Godzilla vs. Kong, and to a lesser extent the conflict of the 2015 storyline in Monarch: Legacy of Monsters.

The world was created by the three goddesses Din, Nayru and Farore. When they left, a golden artifact called the Triforce appeared, symbolizing their powers (respectively Force, Wisdom and Courage) which was left under the custody of the goddess Hylia. She protected the Triforce from numerous evil creatures including Demise the Avatar of Nothingness. Unable to totally defeat him (he was at most momentarily sealed) she decided to use the Triforce to do so, but her status of goddess forbade her to directly use it. She decided then to renounce her goddess status and reborned as a human (who would eventually be named Zelda) on Skyloft, a floating island keeping the humans safe from the ravages on the war going on land. The warrior Impa from the Sheikah clan was given the task to protect the Triforce in the absence of Hylia as well as the fragile human child she would become. Then Skyward Sword begins...

This scarred Miles Edgeworth, his son, and was the moment where he stopped wanting to be a lawyer and instead took the path of a prosecutor under Mandred von Karma's custody. The most tragic thing is that von Karma was the killer. Misty Fey's subsequent disgrace and disappearance following the true killer failing to be convicted ruined the Fey clan's reputation and significantly affects Mia and Maya's backstories as well.

This began the government's efforts to conceal the information about the field. The main character, Arnold Potterley, is a historian desperate to prove his thesis about Carthage, and convinces a physicist who studied pseudo-gravitics to work on neutrinics and prove that the government is trying to hold back scientific advancement. Potterley's desperation comes from an accidental fire that took the life of his daughter when she was three years old. He may have forgotten to stub out a cigarette before falling asleep, and he's displaced that blame to his study of Carthage. Their ancient enemies (Rome and Greece) would claim that Carthaginian citizens would sacrifice their children to Moloch by tossing them into a furnace.

The series has been one gigantic Gambit Pileup by the Big Bad to forge the weapon that can unlock Kingdom Hearts for him. It's a little more complicated than that. As detailed in Kingdom Hearts χ, before the Keyblade War, five Unions of Keyblade wielders gathered Lux to drive off the coming darkness detailed in the Union's Foretellers' Books of Prophecy, given to them by their Master. As things escalated to the Keyblade War, Kingdom Hearts plunged into the Realm of Darkness, the X-Blade that could unlock Kingdom Hearts, and that all Keyblades were modeled after shattered into twenty pieces, seven light, and thirteen dark, and the world fell to the darkness. Light from those who survived the war recreated the worlds in their fractured form. Since then, Big Bad Xehanort has been trying to reforge the X-Blade, first by attempting to balance Ventus and Vanitas's hearts (originally Ventus's whole heart), and made a proto-X-Blade, which Aqua shattered. His Heartless, Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, tried to reach Kingdom Hearts by drowning worlds in darkness, while his Nobody, Xemnas, tried to insert pieces of his heart into thirteen candidates, the Organization XIII, of which only two succeeded before Sora brought that crashing down. But he knew he'd fail at both of those goals, so in Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance], he assembles a new Organization consisting of himself, his younger self, his Heartless, Nobody, and nine others to clash with seven guardians of light. And sure enough, that clash finally happens in Kingdom Hearts III, and he finally succeeds... only for Sora to defeat him once more. To note is that Xehanort's Keyblade has existed since the Age of Fairy Tales. It was first carried by the Master's sixth apprentice, Luxu, who passed it down from master to apprentice until Xehanort got it. Embedded in that blade is the Master's Gazing Eye, which allowed him to see the future to write the aforementioned Books of Prophecy. On the last page is 'And on that land will the darkness triumph, and light expire,' referring to the events of III. Speaking of III, it turns out Luxu has been Body Surfing to see that Keyblade passed down through the generations. And at the end of this game, Luxu ends up reclaiming the ancient blade.

When It All Began / int_fc439a61	comment	The KG-8 incident in Investigations. Manny Coachen killed Cece Yew as he was told to by the international smuggling ring, which led to the creation of the Great Thief Yatagarasu and later the murder of Kay's father, which in turn prompted Kay to continue the Yatagarasu's legacy.

When It All Began / int_fdc66d32	comment	Kamen Rider Double: The "Begins Night", the case in which Shotaro accidentally caused the death of his mentor, met his future partner Philip, and became Kamen Rider Double for the first time; it also qualifies for Philip because it marks the point where he starts taking responsibility for helping make Gaia Memories. They actually use the term as a shorthand for this trope later on; when they meet Ryu Terui, Philip comments that the murder of his family was his own personal Begins Night. Almost all the Double characters had their "Begins Nights", the events that make them the person/rider/monster they are. Narumi's Begins Night was when he first encountered the Dopants and was given his Driver and Gaia Memory from Shroud, while Daido gets two. The first is when he dies and is the first subject of the NEVER experiment and the second is when he went to Island S where his mind practically unravels. As for Phillip, well, his began the moment he fell into the Gaia Memory well, while his mother's began when she protested at her husband wanting to use Phillip to make Gaia Memories. The murderer of Ryu's family's night began when said mother gives him a Gaia Memory.
