Before time began there was a cube. We know not where it comes from, only that it hold the power to create planets and fill them with life. That was how our race was born. For a time, we all lived in harmony. But like all great power some wanted it for good, others for evil. And so began the war. A war that ravaged our planet until it was consumed by death, and the cube was lost to the far reaches of space we scattered across the galaxy in hope to find it and rebuild our world. Just when all hope seemed lost, we got a message of a new discovery, a planet called Earth. But we were already to late.
