2965 BC: Egypt
He was the oldest man alive, but now, his life was at an end. Perhaps it was not such a bad end after all; all his friends have been long gone. He was at peace.
However, with peace came insight. And understanding. And he remembered how he came to be in this place and time. The first step was thousands of years in the future, when his theories were validated and he stepped through the Stargate onto a distant planet. Then, there was his wife Sha're and the memory as he lost her to the Goa'uld. He remembered how he took the fight to the Goa'uld, first in an attempt to save his wife, then to find her son, and finally to protect his home world. It was this fight that unleashed the Ori, cousins and enemies of the Ancients, onto the galaxy. They were already looking into the jaws of defeat, when by a happenstance he and the rest of SG-1 were pulled to a different universe. It was there that he learned where they might get a ZPM; it just required a time-travel-capable Puddle Jumper. Gaining access to the Jumper was no problem, after all the planet was devoid of life for a year. But in travelling into the past their bad luck showed up again. They did appear at the time of the rebellion, just that the rebellion just happened and Ra was being driven away from Earth by another Puddle Jumper, one piloted by the more recent descendants of the Ancients – as he remembered the reports from the other universe, they were called Lanteans. SG-1 decided to join the fight, but they did lose Teal'c, the Time Jumper was irreparably damaged. Their mission was a success, they had nothing left so Jack and Sam decided to start a family and he worked as a scribe. This was how he came to be here, 30 years later.
And the fear came. But he did not lose the now regained insight and for the third time in his life Daniel Jackson, now called Danyel, ascended.
2863 BC
Danyel felt confused, he finally reached the next plane, but apparently this ascension brought back the memories of Merlin that had been removed.
But it was somewhat confusing as the actual future Merlin, i.e the former leader of the Council ofAlantis , Moros, was present on this plane.
