The History of the Silver Alliance .
. . .
Mercury,
Venus, Mars, Phaeton, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. These nine
planetary Kingdoms existed peacefully together in one solar system, bound
together under a coalition called the Silver Alliance and presided
over—ironically enough—by a satellite of the one planet not allowed entrance
into this sacred confederation. The satellite’s name was Lunara, the planet in
question, Earth.
When
the other Kingdoms were already old and well-established, the Earth was just
being born—socially and politically speaking. The beautiful blue and green
planet was set apart from the others with it’s natural atmosphere and
stand-alone ecosystem, completely unreliable on technology or magic to sustain
itself. This life of relative simplicity ensured that it’s people remained positively
medieval compared to the rest of the Kingdoms in the Galaxy—unhindered by the
need to come together as a species for mutual survival. While the other
Kingdoms had remained peaceful and untouched by war for several millennia, it
seemed Earth was constantly brewing with battle; lords and common men fighting
amongst themselves, one nation burning for power and domination over the
others. Earthlings were deemed barbaric beasts and unintelligent warmongers not
fit for the far more cultured and civilized Silver Alliance, and therefore
passed over completely when the confederation was founded nearly three thousand
years ago.
And
then, after an especially bloody world war, Earth finally settled down under
one central rule. It was called the Elysian Kingdom, presided over by one Lord
King and four Warrior Kings—also known as the Guardians of the Four Corners—the
King’s top Generals and closest confidants. There were several generations of
painful reconstruction that followed, as the planet struggled to adjust and
adapt. Yet for the first time it seemed as though Earth had finally found
itself.
It
was then that the planet of Phaeton took an interest in Earth and her very
diverse people.
Phaeton
was a small planetary mass between Mars and Jupiter, with a highly advanced
technological and equally impressive magical community that rivaled both
Mercury and Lunara respectively in prowess. Phaetonian scientists were the
creators of Chrys-Tech technology after all, the awesome and virtually limitless
power source that gave fuel to the planetary transporters, the atmospheric
shields, environmental stabilizers and Mercury’s entire planet-wide central
computer network to name only a few. To say that Phaeton was vital to the way
of life in the Silver Alliance would be putting the situation in very mild
terms indeed.
The
King of Phaeton—Lord Coeus—had vision where the other rulers did not. He saw
the raw, untapped potential of Earth, as well as the possibility of extreme
danger. As the only planet in their solar system that did not rely on either
magical or technological means to support life, it was most certainly the most
logical target should someone or some thing ever decide to attack. The
Alliance disagreed heartily with Phaeton’s analysis, however. Mercury insisted
that the odds of such a happenstance were nearly impossible, denouncing them as
paranoid and foolish. Coeus was a man deeply interested in the histories of the
universe however, and he knew that no nation in this life was infallible. History
had proven that time and time again. The others of the Alliance had forgotten
this hard lesson however, lulled into a false sense of security due to the
hundreds of centuries worth of peace that they had enjoyed. The Alliance ruled
that Phaetonians were forbidden to act on their speculations, and were to
continue to shun all contact with Earth and her “barbarous” peoples.
Ignoring
the ruling, Coeus made contact with Earth in the Planetary year 4023. The
Earthlings were startled, to say the least, to discover that there was life on
other planets than their own and that these Kingdoms in question had been
around for far longer than they. The Lord King of Earth was also more than a
little affronted to learn that his planet was considered to be the black sheep
of the entire solar system. In the end he decided to grant them their wish,
however, and made no attempts to contact or beg assistance from them. His
reasoning was that he and his people had managed just fine without this
all-powerful “Silver Alliance” for hundreds of years and that they would
continue to do so. Earth was more than happy to welcome Phaeton and their
teachings, however. In five short years they had their very own planetary
transporter and was well on it’s way to catching up to the other civilizations,
technologically speaking.
The
Alliance was furious, to say the least. Phaeton continued to ignore their
threats and chastising, however, for that’s all that could really be done
against them. Unlike the other planets and kingdoms, Phaeton was quite
invaluable with their Chrys-Tech, and enjoyed an immunity of a sort because of
it. Thus, all the Alliance could do was sit back and brood disapprovingly while
the ties between Phaeton and Earth grew stronger with each passing year. The
Phaetonian Princess, Jaasa—younger sister to the King—even married Earth’s
Warrior King of the East in a huge celebration that was enjoyed on both
planets, the union being like a physical manifestation of their peoples’ bond
of friendship.
And
then, despite Mercury’s statistical predictions, in the year 4046 disaster
struck in the form of an evil and mysterious force known only as the Negaverse.
No one knew who the true power was behind it, though on Earth the hoards of
hell were led by a malignant sorceress—and former Earthian noble woman—who know
called herself Queen Beryl. She and her misshapen Youma spread across the Earth
like an evil plague, annihilating everything and everyone in their path. The devastation
was vast. Coeus called for the Silver Alliance to raise arms and come to
Earth’s defense against this evil foe.
This
time it was he who was ignored.
The
Silver Alliance turned their backs on Earth in their greatest hour of need,
citing that it was Fate punishing the weaker Kingdom for trying to meddle with
their own destiny, that they had awoken this evil themselves by trying to
dabble in a level of power they couldn’t possibly ever understand. Infuriated,
Phaeton once again ignored Queen Serenity’s order to stand down, holding true
to Earth. They paid dearly for their loyalty. In retaliation for their
assistance to the Earthlings, Beryl launched a secret attack on the small
planet. One that—thanks to a traitor—resulted in the planet’s utter
destruction. The Chrys-Tech plants were tampered with, a planet-wide overload
that resulted in a massive explosion, blowing the planet itself completely
apart. It became nothing more than an asteroid belt spanning between it’s
former neighbors. This tragedy only seemed to strengthen the Alliance’s
resolute decision to remain uninvolved in Earth’s dilemma.
For
thirteen years the Earth managed to somehow hold firm against the endless waves
of Youma attacks. The loss was incredible, the deaths were
astronomical—including the current Lord King and all four of his Generals. The
fate of Earth and all her people was at it’s most dire.
And
yet, Earthlings are nothing if not adaptable.
The
five sons that rose to take their place soon become legends throughout the
solar system. Where their fathers had held the Negaverse at bay, these
warriors—wielding a level of power not seen since the Elder Days of the star
system—actually showed signs of beating them.
Frustrated
at her continued loss, Beryl soon grew tired of trying to overthrow this
planet. In the year 4049, the Negaverse systematically launched attacks against
the other Eight Kingdoms of the Silver Alliance. Unlike Earth, it had been
hundreds of centuries since the last time they had seen war. Their soldiers
were trained, but not yet battle tested. Their magic was strong, but
unpracticed.
They
began falling like leaves on a winter wind.
In
two short years the Kingdom of Pluto fell completely and Saturn was fast on
it’s way to joining it. It soon became painfully apparent to the Alliance that
where they were failing, their barbaric and uncivilized cousin
had all but won. Queen Serenity knew that she had but one option left, or risk
complete annihilation.
In
the Planetary Year 4061, she sent the transmission.
