(The birth of the Philosophers and the contest to obtain the Philosophers' Legacy fund) I divided the saga into three thematic arcs: I used the time line at the Metal Gear Wiki as a starting point and whittled down/added/reinterpreted it so that the entire saga now makes complete sense, even though it was never designed as a 9 game (!) continued series.
