Prologue

Long ago, before the Altaerans thrived throughout the universe, a prophecy was made:

A daughter will be born to a strong and wealthy leader of the Ancient race, the Altaerans. She will be bestowed with great gifts and powers. It will be her duty to help and protect all that reside in the great and magnificent cities. Those who are threatened by an alliance of three great and terrible enemies will have to rely on her. Only she can put an end to thousands of years of chaos and fighting, throughout the universe, in plane and the next.

The city then left Earth and the Milky Way altogether, and settled into the Pegasus Galaxy. Here they started many experiments and planetary travels to further their race. Setting up Lantean outposts all over the galaxy. Harnessing the thing about the planet that they thought could one day be useful. Whether it is its geothermal energy from the planets core, a strange energy reading, or a life sucking bug.

One day in a lab accident, in an Lantean outpost, when they were crossing the DNA of this life sucking bug and the DNA of a human; they created one of their worst enemies, the Wraith. The Wraith may look like humans, but that may be deceiving, they have pasty white skin and life sucking capabilities through their hands, used to feed upon human life.

To help stop the Wraith from terrorizing the galaxy the Lanteans created humanoid machines out of nanites as a weapon against the them. But when they proved to be ineffective the Lanteans tried to destroy them. Only a few nanites survived just enough to replicate and start over. Angry with the Lanteans, they one day swore they punish them for their wrong doing. Until then they replicated to strengthen their numbers and to rebuild their city, Asuras.

But before any of this a greater war took place. A great controversy arose about what the prophecy really said, did it mean that the child was born with these great powers or were they bestowed powers by the Altaeran council upon whom they thought the prophecy was talking about.

Because of this the Altaeran people split. Those who believed that the baby would be born with the powers and the people who wanted to give a child he powers (the Bestowers). The arguments went on for generations. In the end the first of the Altaerans to start the controversy ascended, to a higher plane of existence, living as pure energy, and the ascended Bestowers decided to take matters into their own hands.

A baby had just been born to a very powerful leader of the Altaeran people, hwo fit the prophecy discribtion, so the ascended Bestowers saw this as an opportunity to give this Altaeran baby girl the powers said in the prophecy, but why? She was being born to a Bestower, and the baby had no father. The ascended Altaeran became infuriated with the Bestowers, for doing this with out the consent of both sides and the Altaeran council and all the ascended Altaerans.

In fear for her child's life Nadini took confidence in the only person she felt she could trust, her brother Sanjog, even though he was not Bestowers. Nadini told him that upon the girls fifteenth birthday her powers would start to surface and that he had to train her in everyway possible, in strength and smarts.

Nadini faked her and her daughter's death and went into finding, among the stars, for the rest of her life, wanting nothing to do with her people anymore. Sanjog and Divya keep the child as their own, but he had to keep what had happened a secret from everyone, even his wife, Divya. It was the only way to let the council believe that the child was truly dead. And the only this had worked was because Divya had just had a baby a few days earlier but it didn't make it. The only people who knew this was Sanjog, Nadini and the doctors who sworn to secrecy.

As punishment for the Bestowers rash actions, the ascended Altaerans made it a law of ascended being that they could no longer deal with the affairs of anything on the lesser plane. And if caught it would be punishable by a fate worse than death.

The Bestowers were furious that they had to be bond by this law; that they excluded themselves from the rest of the ascended beings. They left to create a new society were their follower could live in "harmony". They expected any true Bestower to follow in their foot steps. They would become, in time, an evil and lethal enemy, which would make the Wraith the least of their worries. The Ori as they now called themselves.

The Ori planted them in another galaxy angry and hungry for power. Slowly they converted the galaxy, by gaxaly so that every living person was worshiping them and giving them the power they long for, power they would one day need to attack and destroy the Altaerans.

The ascended Altaerans suspected this attack from the Ori and set up barricades to protect them and their descendants in both the Milky Way and Pegasus galaxy. But the Ori never came. The remaining Altaerans split and went their separate ways, scattered cities across the universe. But in the end, most of the Altaeran endure destruction from the Wraith, plaques, other enemies, or just died out.

Generations had past and nothing was getting any better for the Altaerans. With there numbers seriously depleted they fled back to Earth though the Stargate, to live out the rest of their lives and to reach ascension.

This once strong and powerful race had unintentionally created their three greatest enemies and has suffered the consequences or their descendants would have to. Their only hope was shattered into a million pieces just over a matter of opinion and they didn't have guts to do anything about it. If the baby would have lived she would have been over a fifteen years old the year the Altaeran fled back to Earth.
