All Alone
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As I wake to another day of solitude and silence, though I have lived for over two centuries, the only times that I can remember are the dark times…the time of the Ing.
Our battle with the Ing began eight decades ago.
The Ing had us greatly outnumbered, and we were traditionally a peaceful, intelligent people, but this intelligence helped us develop technology to battle the Ing Horde.
We could not fight in their world, nor could they fight in ours, only through a nefarious method could they battle on our Aether.
The Ing began to posses the indigenous species, machines, even fellow Luminoth, forcing us to even have to kill our friends and family sometimes.
We fought on Dark Aether with the protection of the light crystals, but they fought to the death to defend their home.
In order to collapse the dark world, we developed an Energy Transfer Module to take back our planet's energy, we sent our greatest warriors for this task, the Ing took the module and their lives, including the life of A-Kul, my dear friend, whom led these warriors. I wonder if she would have lived if not for me…
With the module, the Horde began to kill our people, ravage our planet, and even steal the life of the planet. Some of my closest friends, the sentinels of the Agon, Torvus, and Sanctuary fortresses fought to the death to do their sacred duty, O-Lir, the sentinel the Sanctuary Fortress would've wanted to continue fighting the Ing even in death.
When we, the Luminoth could battle no more, the survivors of this tragedy gathered in the Great Temple to enter a cryogenic slumber to be released when the Ing were no more.
As my brethren walked into those slumbering pods, I could not help but feel that I had failed my people, my friends,I-Sha,A-Voq,O-Lir,and most of all A-Kul,and myself.
I would have to apologize in the afterlife, as my work in this one is not done yet.
They are coming, The Ing Horde have gathered on this temple to take the last of this planet's energy, and kill me.
Other worlds would suffer the same fate for sure, I just prayed that I had the strength to stop them here…
I sense a new presence in the temple…A warrior with a strong mind, sprit and a pure heart…
She is the one that will save this universe once again…Samus Aran…
