================================
Lore-Luminoth Lore-History-Dark Age
================================
The Ing Attack
Found:Path of Roots
Scan Info:The day came when space was torn asunder, revealing dimensional
rifts to a dark place. Horrible dark swarms streached forth from these rifts,
engulfing nearby creatures and transforming them into what we would call
darklings. The dark creatures became our enemies, and peace came to an end
on Aether.
Cataclysm
Found:Mining Station A
Scan Info:The starborne terror burnt through the heavens and struck Aether
with untold might. We all expected the world to shatter...but Aether held.
There was great devistation, however. The green plains of Agon were
scorched forever, and the forest of Torvus was engulfed and wreacked by the
sea. The skies burned for days, casting darkness over the land.
The World Warped
Found:Path of Eyes
Scan Info:Amidst the turmoil, we discovered many disturbing anomalies.
Spatual disturbences appeared across the land. Objects went into a state of
dimensional flux, their atoms divided between Aether and....somewhere else.
There was little time to ponder these strange happenings for we had to deal
with the devistation of our lands.
Age of Anxiety
Found:Meeting Grounds
Scan Info:In time, the roar of a wounded planet subsided. The air, though
fouled, was breathable. Light made its way through the dark veil over our
world. Slowly, we ventured out from the shelters of our homes to see what
remained of our paradise. What little comfort we gained by surviving, was
soon shattered, for when we looked outward, all we saw was devistation. Half
of the planet's energy had vanished from the Energy Controllers. Aether
became violently unstable as a result. Of the stellar object which struck
our homes, there was no sign.
================================
Lore-Luminoth Lore-History-Golden Age
================================
Origins
Found:Main Energy Controller
Scan Info:It is told that the Luminoth were not born of Aether but of the
Stars. In the early days, we roamed the greatness of the void, bathing in
the light of a thousand stars. We met a vast number of enlightened minds...
the N' Kren, the Vlla, and the Chozo amoung them. Each of them we found had
claimed a homeworld and formed a deep bond with it. In time, we decided to
do the same.
The Stellar Object
Found:Mining Station B
Scan Info:By the time we detected the stellar object as it streaked toward
our world, it was too late to stop it. We fired numerous weapons at it in a
vain attempt to alter its trajectory. Nothing worked. Our efforts put a great
strain on the Energy Controllers, and weakened Aether. All we could do as the
object grew closer was take shelter and wait. We gathered stores of food and
water, reinforced the sheilding on our dwellings, and spent the last few
hours in peace.
Our Heritage
Found:Transport to Agon Wastes in Temple Grounds
Scan Info:Our search for a home took us through the cosmos. For many a great
cycle we roamedm yet a place to calll our own eluded us. In time, we began
to dispair, feeling the search was in vain. We considered remaining amoung
the stars until a scout returned with news of a world unlike any other. When
we beheld Aether for the first time, so great was her beauty that we
forsook the stars forever to live upon her surface. From that day forth, the
Luminoth were of Aether, our blessed paradise.
Paradise
Found:Main Plaza
Scan Info:Aether was a fertile, aged world with bountiful fields and oceans.
The nature creatures were gentle compared to other worlds we had encountered.
We settled in a mountain region at first, in cliffside dwellings. In time,
we established settlements in the green forest of Torvus and the fertile
plains of Agon. A Great Temple was built between our three domains, a place
of peace and a monument of our accomplishments. It was a time of harmony for
our people.
Light of Aether
Found:Portal Terminal
Scan Info:The Main Energy Controller was built in the Great Temple:three
sub-controllers were built in the Temples of Agon. Torvus, and Sanctuary.
They collected the energy of Aether, then radiated it over the world to those
who needed it. In time, we came to call this precious energy the "Light of
Aether." It brought an age of peace and properity to the Luminoth.
Saving Aether
Found:Agon Energy Controller
Scan Info:Aether's planetary energy supply reached a critical stage. If left
unchecked, the energy would expire, bringing an end to this world. Our
greatest minds devised a way to preserve and regulate the remaining planetary
energy-the Energy Controllers.
================================
Lore-Luminoth Lore-Conflict-First Phase
================================
The New Terror
Found:Catacombs
Scan Info:In time, the Ing began to possess the Luminoth as well as
creatures. Friends and family members became the enemy, spilling Luminoth
blood across the land. Desprate, we devised sheilding to prevent Ing
possession. It was effective, but not perfect. Should the sheilding fall, all
Luminoth were prepared to self-terminate rather than become a weapon for the
Ing.
Dark Aether
Found:Torvus Energy Controller
Scan Info:In time, we created machines to open rifts to our enemies world.
Volunteer scouts went through the rifts and found a twisted world, harsh and
poisonous....a Dark Aether. They discovered that this world held the missing
half of our planet's energy. They also saw the true face of the enemy, a race
we came to call the "ing" meaning terror. Our scouts could not survive long
enough on the surface of Dark Aether, so venemous was its air. Still, we
vowed to return. We prepared for war.
Our War Begins
Found:Underground Tunnel
Scan Info:We developed Crystals that brought the Light of Aether to the dark
world. Uing the Crystals allowed our warriors to explore the enemy lands to
bring war to the Ing. Sadly, the Crystals weren't enough. We needed stronger
weapons, better armor. We withdrew form Dark Aether while our greatest minds
developed new engines of war.
Recovering Energy
Found:Training Chamber
Scan Info:We were not prepared to fight a long war. The forces of our enemy
outnumbered ours vastly. We sought a way to end the war quickly, without
extended combat. We decided to build a device to recover our lost planetary
energy from Dark Aether. Without this energy, the drk world would cease to
be, and our world would be restored to stability.
New Weapons
Found:Gathering Hall
Scan Info:Our studies of the Ing revealed the source of their attacks as
dark energy. We built weapons to use this energy, thinking it could overload
the enemy targets and eliminate them. We soon learned our error, as the Dark
Beam was not of great effect on the Ing. We then began to develop a weapon
that used light energy. This weapon would dispatch the Ing with terrible
efficiency.
================================
Lore-Luminoth Lore-Conflict-Second Phase
================================
The Sky Temple
Found:Fortress Transport Access
Scan Info:We learned the ruler of the Ing dwelled in a place dubbed "The
Sky Temple" by our forces. This place held the planetary energy of Dark
Aether as well. It was heavily guarded, and entry was barred by a great gate
requiring ten keys to unlock. These keys were hidden throughout Dark Aether
by the Ing. A mission was planned, one that would find the hidden keys and
recover our missing energy from the Sky Temple.
Agon Falls
Found:Sanctuary Energy Controller
Scan Info:A massive Ing attack came to the land of Agon. Soon, the Temple of
Agon was surrounded by the Horde, with no hope of salvation. Our galliant
warrior there were slain, and Agon fell to the enemy. Our blood chilled when
we learned that the energy within the Temple was drained. The Ing had found
the Energy Transfer Module, and they were using our weapon against us.
Torvus Falls
Found:Main Research
Scan Info:The Ing turned their focus on the Torvus Bog, sending a vast force
to lay siege to the temple there. Thousands upon thousands of Ing were
destroyed by our warriors, yet they kept coming until there were no Luminoth
alive to offer resistance in Torvus. On that day, the energy of Torvus was
taken to Dark Aether, and our hopes for survival grew dim.
Shattered Hope
Found:Main Gyrochamber
Scan Info:None of our warriors sent to the Sky Temple ever came back alive.
Our search team searched all over Dark Aether for them in vain. Of the
Energy Transfer Module, there was no sign. Tough saddened, we set out to
prepare another mission, to build another module to try at once more to save
our dying world.
The Final Crusade
Found:Hall of Combat Mastery
Scan Info:While our forces on Dark Aether fought desprate battles aganist
superior numbers, our best minds completed their work. The Energy Transfer
Module, a device designed to recover our planetary energy that was lost, was
ready at last. A force of our greatest warriors was assembled, each equipped
with the best armor and weaponary available. We sent thi brave cadre of
fighters to invade the Sky Temple and seige the missing energy within.
================================
Lore-Luminoth Lore-Conflict-Final Phase
================================
Sanctuary Falls
Found:Watch Station
Scan Info:Our battered forces gathered in Sanctuary Fortress to prepare for
the inevitable siege there. They didn't wait long. Wave after wave of Ing
assulted the greatest of our fortresses, with a goal in mind:to siege the
enemy there. The Ing turned the machines of Sanctuary against our warriors,
and soon all was lost. The energy of Sanctuary was taken by the Ing. Only
one Energy Controller remained on Aether.
Twilight
Found:Sacntuary Entrance
Scan Info:What few remained gatheed in the Great Temple. There, all but
U-Mos, the last Sentinal of Aether, entered into a state of life-preserving
stasis. There they would remain, to be released once the Ing were defeated...
or to sleep forever. His people safe, U-Mos prepared for the last, terrible
assult. In the silence of the Great Temple, he prayed for salvation, for
deliverence from the terror of the Ing. |
