Myranda: "Oh of course! We Ghashyr understand perfectly our duty
towards our 'swarm' as well ..however I was referring to the
things one considers personally satisfying"
Alina seems satisfied by the Kriths' opinions and takes a rest
next to Thiror "Heh, I told you these guys are nice folks!"
Thiror: "Aye, Oy did'nee thenk they we'e so similar tae us..."
Myranda to Tarakith: "It's a liquid alcoholic substance we
Frontierer Ghashyr drink in occasions like this, want to give it
a try?"

"This is marvelous! I will personally ensure her wellbeing in
Shyr - I can hardly wait to meet princess Rynza. You will meet

Lady Sarxaxa Ymbrel arrives with a hologram depicting the rules

Sarxaxa: "Talmyr Zagara, your grace, you only have to touch the
empty spaces after your name. If you have any questions
regarding any of the articles I'm sure her greatness, the
Unburnt One, will enlighten you."
-
Myrsa to Selyna: "Quite an interesting take on the Ascend of
Light and its aftermath Lady Malqamrax, but I suggest to
continue this discussion later ...our guests might feel
uncomfortable, and I do not wish that."
Myrsa being quite familiar with psionic auras addresses Zagara:
"Fellow Talmyr, I hope you are not made uncomfortable by our
intense religious debates ...you should all know that there
hasn't been a religious war in Shyr for more than six millenia,
we just disagree on certain philosophical views as we have done
for thousands of years, in a civili manner. I assure you that
all the present lords are my most loyal subjects and full-grown
adults that would not engage in hostilities over a mere
theological disagreement."
-
Lord Castellan Ymeror, a very old, bald and wringled Ghashyr
wearing a ludicrous anachronistic suit comes with a metal
holographic device in his hands and kneels before the royals
"Unburnt One, my Talmyr I am at your ser-.. I.. these
creatures!"
Myrsa looks with a rather annoyed look at her Castellan "They're
our guests, I'm sure Echopalad (steward) Rysannox informed you
about them."
Ymeror: "oh.. of course, great divine Talmyr! But to view them
from close is a breathtaking experience ...I am Lord-Castellan
Ymeror of House Elrinel, at your service." he then turns to
Kilysa "...and forgive me for my rather rude introduction great
Talmyr of the Formics"
Myrsa covers her eyes with her hand and sighs.

Sivtress: “oh yes all Formic Queens have life pursuits they
master for personal satisfaction, how do Ghashyr choose their
life pursuits?”
Tarakith to Myranda: "Liquid alcohol…., it smells somewhat
similar to the special brews our Aunt Niadra makes, though she
said we should wait until we are fully mature otherwise it will
have fatal effects on us, although since we are part Chrymerion
it is hard to be sure if this is the case, so we will wait for
now, we will be in our final cocoon cycle in about 1 - 2 weeks,
after we awake from that we should be fine."
-_
-_
-_
Zagara: “I should let you know that Rynza is a Krith Formic,
they are a new generation of Formic created with our Chrymerion
sisters & brothers dna, thus their appearance will be more
similar to your own, but perhaps no less shocking to you.”
Zagara turns towards Sarxaxa viewing the hologram.
“Ah so these are what you call documents, the wording is
straight forward, Thank you Sarxaxa, every Formic Queen will
have these in their memories so all in their broods will uphold
these articles, & we will have to introduce your species scent
as a friendly one to our more primitive drones.”
Making motions with her 2 secondary hands an illusion copying
the articles appeared next to the hologram but in Formic
language which looked like complex ancient runes. As Zagara &
Myrsa each touch the empty spaces specialty runes filled the
corresponding space in the illusion.”
-_
Zagara: "No need to worry im fine, I misunderstood what was
happening, in our ways debates are kept in mental conversation &
when things became physically vocal battles & wars ensue. We
have never before seen 2 different religious & philosophical
authorities interacting with each other.”
-_
Kilysa watched Castellan curiously wondering how old he was.
Kilysa looks at her mom a moment before addressing Ymeror. “Oh
im not the Talmyr, my mother standing over there next to Myrsa
is the Talmyr of Formics, if I may ask what is your age?”

Myranda: "It depends on what they're destined for and what their
experiences have been - a mere peasant could never have the same
life pursuits with a lord"
Thiror: "Ye say so cap'n but 'ere Oy am..."
Myranda: "You are Saaryn, even though a minor Saaryn, you belong
to the nobility of the empire Thiror ...never forget that"
Thiror: "Phe'haps cap'n but t'is not unsound fo' mere Lauindayn
to 'ave tha same loyfe pursuits wi a' Saar."
Myranda gives Thiror her flask "Phe'haps ...err, pherhaps
..damn your accent!"
Thiror laughs and sips some Achjaal from Myranda's flask.
Myranda: "Oh, I would never have suggested if I knew ...pherhaps
when you get older."
Alina: "You're kids? I swear you look like full-grown young
adults"
Myranda goes near to the overseer: "Ehem, I was worried about
one of my crewmembers, Rosdax. Is he ok? ...I am receiving his
life signals, but I'd like to see him."
-~-
-~-
-~-
Myrsa: "Talmyr Zagara, very few things can shock a Ghashyr
Talmyr, in time you will learn this ...I'm sure we will manage
to overcome all external differences with her and focus on the
internal similarities."
Sarxaxa bows gently to Zagara and stands besides Myrsa.
Myrsa touches the empty spaces after Zagara as well "This a
great day for Ghashyr and Formics - may this relation be proven
fruitful and expand!" Myrsa calmly unseathes her sword and
points it towards Taurgha, the sun of the Taurghan system, all
Ghashyr present kneel and look to the sun "I vow in the bright
sunlight of Shyr, I the descendant of ancient kings and lords,
Myrsa XIX of House Valxaryen, seed of the Dragon and Talmyr of
all Ghashyr that their fire burns, that everything that has been
signed on this day will be upheld - else may my fire burn out!".
All Ghashyr rise and salute the Talmyr "Unburnt One Shall Never
Burn Out! Unburnt One Shall Never Burn Out!".
-
Myrsa: "I understand ...we have met only recently, we have many
things to learn for and from each other."
-
The Lord Castellan feels extremely embarassed and bows to Zagara
"Apologies your grace ...I am not familiar with your species
looks" he then turns to Myrsa and kneels "Unburnt One I'm sorry
I ashamed your greatness"
Myrsa: "Yes, yes, now rise and enlighten our guests..."
Ymeror bows "Certainly your greatness!"
Ymeror to Kilysa: "Oh, ho ho ...I am 136 years old and I've
been the loyal Lord Castellan for ninety years out of them noble
lady-bug. I've seen many wonders and known many Talmyrs and
nobles throughout these years, but this is definitely the
greatest wonder of all - speaking of, I recall a time when
Talmyr Lashox, the Unburnt One's father-blessed be his soul,
wouldn't come to visit her chambers, and to draw his attention
she glued-"
Myrsa: *coughs* "That would be enough, Lord Castellan."
Ymeror: "Err, yes ...Is there more that you wish to learn divine
guest?"

Sivtress: “Ah I see.”
Tarakith: “You are fine, we still have much to learn about each
other.”
XerKhon to Alina: “Interesting, we are not quite kids, we are in
our broodling stage between larvae & mature, according to our
grandmothers estimates our Queen cousins should be around 3 - 4
meters in height & Warlords should be around 3 meters in height
once fully mature.”
The Overseers spoke psionically, its voice sounds as if about 10
people are speaking at once.
“Rosdax is asleep, we are not familiar enough with Ghashyr to
know he’s precise condition, follow, we will take you to
Rosdax.”
The Overseer lead Myranda into the Soldier Drones Sleeping
chamber & to the area were Rosdax was sleeping.

Zagara: “Very good, im certain Rynza will enjoy her life here.”
“Yes it is indeed a great day.”
-_
Zagara: “ Think nothing of it Castellan, we both are becoming
familiar with each others species.”
Kilysa was slightly annoyed being called a Lady-Bug but she
mostly ignored it.
Kilysa to Ymeror: " ah your alittle younger then my sister
Niadra, hmm, Lady-Bug never heard of such a thing.”
“oh no, I was just curious.”
Zagara: “Lord Castellan, concerning learning Ghashyr history,
usually Formics share memories to teach & transfer information,
im not sure if you are comfortable with this or if you prefer
your own methods of teaching?”

Myranda to Tarakith: "That is true, the more time we spent
together, the more things we'll learn for each other"
Alina to XerKhon: "Ah, yup I got it ...you're just in the
early stages of adulthood I take it - these are the best years!"
Myranda seems more relaxed after seeing Rosdax, she closes on
him and shakes him to wake him up "Private, Are you ok?"
Rosdax opens his eyes a little: "Just one minute mom..."
Myranda: *cough* "I'm your captain"
Rosdax opens his eyes widely and gets up "Yes captain! I'm sorry
I confused you for my mother, captain!"
Myranda: "That's alright, how do you feel?"
Rosdax: "Rejuvenated and ready for duty, captain!"
Myranda: "Good, you have missed quite a lot ...follow me, you
have to meet the others"
Rosdax: "Aye-aye captain!"
Myranda and Rosdax go back to the Krith "This is our engineer,
Rosdax of House Amys - Rosdax these are the Formic royals known
as 'Krith', they're; Tarakith, Sivtress, Rynza, XerKhon,
Tegedar, & Valgorr"
Rosdax bows politely and makes an urvan salute: "It's an honour
to meet you, noble visitors".
-~-
-~-
-~-
Ymeror: "I apologise again and thank you for your understanding
great Talmyr guest."
Ymeror to Kilysa: "Oh! Well, your highness is of noble blood and
an insectoid, so lady-bug seemed fitting your grace..."
Myrsa rolls her eyes: "Queen Kilysa, my Lord Castellan wished
you no insult, I'm sure ...he just uses different terms than
most, due to his age."
Ymeror bows to Zagara: "Your divine greatness, I'd humbly prefer
to instruct you myself on my people's history - it would be the
Ghashyr thing to do... shall we start from the late Imperial
period, or from the begginings of Ghashyr recorded history?"

XerKhon to Alina: "Why do you say that these are the best
years?”
The Krith turn to Rosdax a bow slightly as they greet him.
Sivtress walks up to Rosdax seemingly inspecting him for a
moment before she spoke. “Rosdax everyone has had a chance to
dance, would you like to?”
-_
-_

Kilysa: “ Its alright, he just seems so young to be.. um, im
mean young to us.”
Zagara: "Let us start from the beginings of your history
records.”

Alina: "You explore your feelings and get to know life better,
also a lot of partying"
Rosdax turns to Myranda with a confused look.
Myranda: "You've been sleeping far too long"
Rosdax smiles to Sivtress and bows his head: "Thank you for this
nice offer, but I do not dance - my left foot is an implant.
....by the way, you all look very similar to us and might I add
pleasant even, what happened to the larger insectoid aliens?"
Myranda: "They left"
-~-
-~-
-~-
Myrsa seems slightly annoyed by that last remark: "Time passes
differently for us Ghashyr. We're like bright flames - we might
live a small life compared to you, but it is a life that its
flames touch the skies and set the gods and their stars ablaze
during its short span."
Ymeror: "Your highness, though it's near impossible, I'll try to
summarise my species 50'000 years of history in a compact way...
Myrsa and the rest of the noble Ghashyr sit on the benches
surrounding the small dragon statue in the grove.
Myrsa: "Fellow Talmyr, from my past experiences, Ymeror's
narration takes quite some time, I'd suggest making yourself
comfortable.."
[spoiler=(Ymeror narrates)]
Ymeror coughs and raises his finger: "We Ghashyr evolved from
animals belonging to the biological family of the Erveryn, a
subgroup of mammals, in the continent of Pengur. The first
civilisation and cities made their appearance in the borders of
Urva and Othos, and more particularly the river valley of Akan
and later expanded in other continents too. Urva has always been
the cultural heartlands of the Ghashyr but during the ancient
times they quickly were surpassed in power and wealth by Othos
and the Othosian civilisation.
forty thousand years ago Urva was a continent filled with strife
between the Great Kings of the cities and the Nomad Chiefs of
the Red Desert, that's when the Dragons make their first
appearance, so mysteriously as when they were lost. The dragons
saw the ancient eternal fire and awed by the myths and wisdom of
the firepriests, they added their own wisdom to the cosmic
theory of the Eternal Fire, uniting the continent with help from
their most devout followers, House Gardax whom later changed
their name to honour the Great Dragons"
Ymeror takes a few breaths, crosses his hands' fingers and
continues.
"...Urvans, led by Dragons - of both reptile and Erveryn form -
rose to prominence again and through conquest and apostolic
missions they spread their religion like wildfire to most of the
Akanian civilisations - However the Othosian Merchant Empires
withstood all Urvan invasions and even subdued parts of Urva in
the next millenia, nevertheless this led to them adopting the
Fire Religion as well and spreading it even further, under the
banners of the Othosian Imperial House of Nosach.
However after many millenia under Othosian yoke and protection,
the ancient Urvan prophesy of the Death King came to be true and
amongst the forgotten mystic nomads a warrior rose, Torax the
Skull-skinner, a fierce fighter riding a black dragon,
Ama'thuil'asey the Blacktongued. Torax took the verse of the
prophesy "Myres Muir Vhines Myrar" to heart and burned the
Othosians out of Urva and united the continent against all
others. His Dynasty, House Taggaren was destined to rule. The
Death Kings, would rule through death and bring order to the
unruly Ghashyr, first uniting Urva with Othos through the help
of the Maqamraxes and then uniting the whole planet in the
millenia that followed.
Shortly after the conquest of Pengur by the mighty Taggarens,
the religion of the Light came to be and it enlightened the
realm out of the dark ages, soon the Taggarens would convert to
this most true religion and be its most aggressive defenders.
Thirty-thousand years ago the High Priesthood of the Light
deemed all Dragons guilty of pretending to be gods and keeping
the masses of the Ghashyr in darkness by forcing the lower
strata to perform Fire Sacrifices and lords to pay tribute to
Fire Sanctuaries - not all Dragons were guilty though. That's
when the years known as the "Ascend of Light" happened; House
Taggaren would strengthen its grip on non-Light-believers and
hunt down all Dragons to defeat what they viewed as the "Forces
of Darkness and Corruption". Only House Valxaryen, House
Taggaren's stewards, being infront of a difficult choice struck
the "Holy Pact" which would allow the Religion of the Eternal
fire to be followed in Valxaryen-held lands in exchange for the
extradition of all Dragons - as Lord Arsynaor Valxaryen said 'If
the past is forgotten, then the dragons and our religion shall
truly die - As long as a Valxaryen breathes, the Dragons and the
Eternal Fire may remain Eternal'.
As years, technology and society progressed, it was evident that
the times of kings and lords was long past due and the Taggarens
feared that they would have to share their divine power with
more, this is when the Taggarens created the Power Masks;
machines of godlike abilities that allowed the Taggarens to
shape the fabric of our universe and rule forever-more.
The Taggarens would rule for more than ten millenia as
God-Kings, Talmyrs, that no-one dared to cross. Despite their
excessive cruelty and fearful way of ruling, they were a House
true to their word and harsh law. However during the last
millenium of their rule, they established a law that established
the "Trial of Light", this trial is considered as heretical and
unthinkable by modern Light-believers as it was considered back
then too; if you succeeded you were allowed to die in a painless
way and be Aetherialised, if you failed you would be tortured to
purge darkness from your soul and then Aetherialised. - However
the Taggarens were no exception, and so, driven by divine
example all Ghashyr went through it when they received the call.
The times of the Fourth came though, 'the Fourth and the Last';
Torax IV, the fourth reincarnation of Torax Skull-skinner...
drunk by divine power and fearful of a verse in an Othosian
prophesy 'a noble firstborn would end the reign of Death in a
rain of fire', he ordered all the firstborns of nobles to go
through the Trial; House Fergrangal, the descendants of Othosian
House Nosach, had only one firstborn heir though and disgusted
by the Talmyr's demand raised a fleet of dissidents and
completed the prophesy of the Death Kings in the events known as
'Somandraqish', the Rain of Fire.
After the war the Taggarens and their Empire was no more, in its
place many warring houses and ruined planets "led" by the
traitorous Fergrangals who in their fury killed every Taggaren
and mistreated the bastard Taggaren House of the Avaltaggarens,
expelling them to Gal and giving them their name; Galgatyen.
House Valxaryen would reinstate with help from other House the
closest relatives of the Taggarens to the Fire-tongued throne.
House Galgatyen would prove to be a House of wise emperors that
managed to raise Gashyr from the chaotic years following the
Somandraqish, nevertheless no matter how long and hard they
tried to sustain their rule ..they would be overthrown by House
Arganraxel and Martael that proved to be a little less than
capable of ruling, being rustic colonials with no experience.
During House Arganraxel's interregnum and vice-reign of House
Belaryon errupted one of the greatest conflicts of the Empire;
The Frontier Rebellion, when House Martael having dellusions of
grandeur took the opportunity provided by the weak rule of the
Belaryons to break away from the Empire, which later led to the
threat of the destruction of Shyr by them with a superweapon.
Houses Ymbrel, Valxaryen and Galgatyen responded as true Urvans
and Shyrites, in the language of fire and with words of Arsaz,
ending the discussion once and for all - However after roughly a
thousand years of defending Shyr, House Arganraxel instead of
awarding the three Houses, tried to take away their rights a few
millenia later; Once again, great Talmyr Lashox 'the rightful
Usurper' Valxaryen spoketh fluent fire and led the charge of the
three houses, installing hismelf as Talmyr and House Valxaryen,
the most noble, as our Imperial House - His greatness would pass
away only nine years ago by a mysterious illness, leading to the
fire-enthronement of his most valiant and wise firstborn
daughter, her greatness and Unburnt One, divine ruler of all
Ghashyr, Talmyr Myrsa XIX of great House Valxaryen."

generally having a good time"
Rosdax: "You're kind too noble Sivtress. I lost my leg fighting
for House Martael in the battle of Qor'maalch during the Olen
rebellion and had to crawl back to my line ...I got better."

Myrsa to Zagara: "Yes, it seems so. I'm sure your House is a

listen to your species' and House's story, now that you have
come to know mine."
(I hope it is obvious that Ymeror intentionaly focused on the
parts of Ghashyr history that make the Valxaryens seem as the
greatest House and was rather biased as a result - ie; the
Galgatyens are a far more noble and glorious family, that's why
Rysannox was not impressed.)

high ranking in House Martael, are all of you heroes?"

Kilysa speaks secretly to her mom & sister: “The story that
Myranda told me is different in many ways, Im not certain Ymeror
is telling the whole history or the truth.”
Rokarr to Kilysa: “I do not think it matters Kilysa, In the end
those who are meant to rule shall do so.”
Zagara to her daughters: “It is near impossible to tell, both
stories may indeed have some degree of truth, but without shared
memories of that age we will never know for sure. In any case
Myrsa is an honorable Queen, even in our own history only
honorable Queens are ultimately successful.”
-_
Zagara to Myrsa: "It would indeed be more difficult to verbally
describe our history, so I will show you parts of our history,
if at any time you need to break from the illusion just let me
know, I will go through the memories fairly quickly."
Suddenly it seemed as if everyone was standing a few meters
above themselves looking at the scenery, next the area went dark
a brief moment before an image of the galaxy they are currently
in was in the middle for everyone to see as images of stars were
floating all around everyone. The next instance it seemed as if
they were moving at some unknown warp speed to a far far away
location. When the warp stopped a different galaxy was
presented, rapidly they zoomed in on a peculiar planet.
Finding themselves standing inside a Hive chamber they saw 2
ancient Formic Queens fighting to the death while surrounded by
ancient Soldier & worker drones, one much older than the other,
they looked more feral, more prehistoric then Zagara & her
daughters. At the end of the battle the younger Queen stood over
her mother & tore her head off. Holding her mother head in the
air all Formics in the area lined up close to the victor
awaiting her command.
Zagara: “This is Drokhan, a fierce fighter but also the first
progressive Queen that we know of, this event happened around 2
million years in the past, when formic’s psionic awakening had
just started, at this point you will notice that there are only
4 types of Formics, Queen, Male, Soldier, & worker, also at this
time a Queen would only lay 1 Queen egg her whole life.”
The next scene everyone found themselves standing on a mountain
witnessing a turning point in an intense battle between
Drokhan’s Hive & another Formic hive that looked different,
almost like a distant cousin of Formic’s. After they killed the
enemy Queen Drokhan’s forces stormed the tunnels in the hill
killing everything in their path & using their conquered foes
bodies as nutrients for the new larvae to come, but Drokhan
spared the enemy eggs & larvae & introduced them to her own
brood trying to make all of her conquered enemies strengths her
own. This mountain became Drokhan’s main lair.
Time jumped forward to when Drokhan seemed to be getting ready
to face her own daughter in combat over leadership of the hive.
Although an unexpected idea came to Drokhan, why should mother &
daughter fight each other, so she talked her daughter out of
fighting & convinced her that creating a joint hive would be
more beneficial for both Queens.
Time spend up, This new joint hive swept the western continent
until only Drokhans line of Queens remained. Slowly but surely
afterwards, Drokhan’s hive engulfed the rest of the Formic
world. Soon after her brood became the only brood on the planet,
Drokhan died at the age of 528.
Time skipped to the early years of Formic’s space age showing
the growth of advanced organic technology & various planets
Formic’s discovered. Time skipped again to the Formics first
encounter with humans on a planet the formic’s wanted to
colonize.
Zagara: “these are known as humans, at this time in history
formic’s believed that only hivemind beings were sentient, we
did not understand that singular sentient beings existed, we
thought these were simple creatures, though there form intrigued
us as we had never seen such creatures. Though we were too late
in realizing that they were sentient.”
Time skipped again to the Formic’s second human encounter on
planet earth, as the battle played out Zagara explained that
this was when they discovered that the humans were sentient thus
they left them alone saddened that they had not realized this
earlier.
Time jumped to the Formic High Queen & her plan to ensure the
survival of the race as she was certain the humans would not
stop their attacks. They would see a young Zagara who had barely
started her own brood take a battle ship & leave her home as
another Formic ship took off for another mission. The group
would witness the battle that ended with the oblivion of the
Formic’s home world.
They saw Zagara return to her world soon after the battle
gripping the ashes that was once her home.
The next scene was the 12 moons of a gas giant that Zagara would
call home for the next 800 years. Here she forged a new empire
of Formic’s. Her feats of science greatly expanded the genetics
of all Formic’s & introduced many new Formics to the hive. In
this manner every formic rapidly mutated into new more powerful
versions of their previous forms. New bio-ships were developed &
a new Formic hierarchy was established.
Next the group watched 12 Massive living structures rise from
their respective moons & set out on a campaign against the
humans. Several human colonies fell to grueling battles as the
Formics claimed them as their own, some victories were
celebrated, others were grieved with the fall of 1 of Zagara’s
daughters. They saw Kilysa hatch from her egg, Zagara’s last
Queen egg.
They saw the Crusading Formics arrive at their second to last
target, Planet Lusitania. Zagara’s fleet stopped facing a fleet
composed of human & foreign Formic ships.
The group saw the meeting between Zagara & the foreign Formic
Queen, & a few of the memories the foreign Queen shared with
Zagara. They saw Andrew Wiggins help the Queen build her home on
Planet Lusitania.
Afterwards the group saw Zagara split her fleet, most stayed
with the Foreign Queen to advance the Formic race in that
galaxy, the others left with Zagara. After seeing Zagara’s 2
hive carriers leave the galaxy the illusion stopped.
(I hope it is obvious that Ymeror intentionaly focused on the
parts of Ghashyr history that make the Valxaryens seem as the
greatest House - ie; the Galgatyens are a far more noble and
glorious family, that's why Rysannox was not impressed.)
(Yes it is, I mostly think Myranda was telling more of truth.)
(Also notice how the Shyrites portray themselves as the victims
of the Frontier War, while the Martaels - the guys you met first
- did the opposite.)
(Yes I did notice that, Zagara figures that there is some truth
in both stories but it’s difficult for Formic’s know for certain
unless they cant look into people’s memories who actually
witnessed the events surrounding the war.)
