H'uus, The Irenicworld

H'uus, the fourth planet in the system of Aunala, suffered a catastrophic event that led to nearly all life to be snuffed out. Previously home to over a billion Dionae - now, a mere few hundred thousand dot the landscapes of H'uus. H'uus has slowly begun to recover, with assistance from various interstellar nations pledging support. H'uus is the rootsong translation of 'Home' with Aunala being the translation of Home-Star.

History

The Precursor Epoch

H'uus is believed to have formed around a singular nymph - calling out for others to join it in its path. The Legend behind Asrael’s song has since been told throughout the generations. Not much is known about this time period of H'uus, except that the Dionae were ‘unawakened’. Many believe this era to be a bygone era of time where the Dionae had more primitive and primal instincts.

The Celestial Era

It has been said that the Celestial Era was the beginning of recorded life on H'uus - when the Dionae began to archive their discoveries, advancements and history. Each ‘State’ having their Archivist - tasked with recording everything they had witnessed, eventually conjoining with the other Archivists to ensure multiple perspectives had been recorded. During times of strife amongst the ‘States’, it was agreed upon that the Archivists were not to be harmed and allowed to merge to maintain an unbiased recording of history.

Age of Ashes

It was recorded that shortly before the annual merging of the Archivists, H'uus faced an extinction-level event, with one of its six moons colliding with a sizable celestial object - shattering the moon. This caused sizable chunks on the moon to plunge into H'uus, causing various environmental dangers such as; Tsunamis, Earthquakes and eventually causing a planet-wide ashfall. H'uus was said to have suffered greatly during this time - with millions of Dionae dying due to the lack of exposure to light, as well as an ecological disaster causing the majority of the fauna and flora to die out.

The Extinction Aeon

The Ashfall sent the population of H'uus back hundreds, if not thousands of years. With the majority of the Dionae having died, and the planet reeling back from the ecological damage done to it - it made survival almost impossible for those that remained. With only two original archivists surviving the event - they were forced to merge with non-archivists in an attempt to ensure that their history was not lost. Records state that during this period, although no definitive date was given, the small groups of Dionae that had survived reconstructed ‘Monuments of Light’ severely improving their chances of survival.

Era of Recovery

H'uus is currently in the Era of Recovery, where there are few pockets of survivors and with the majority of the ecological damage being repaired over the last few millennia - however, the survivors can still feel the damage from the Age of Ashes. The various settlements across H'uus have slowly begun to expand over the last few centuries will varying success thanks to innovative and tactical decision making by the Overseers of the population centres.

The Survivors and their Cities

The majority of the cities dotting H'uus are ruins. Those still operating are considered 'Survivor Clusters' - essentially pockets of surviving Dionae after the Age of Ashes. There are four major Survivor Clusters, however, there are many more that have yet to reconnect with their surviving brethren.

• Bribri is one of the Archerum settlements that recovered after the Age of Ashes. Located along the I'rii Canal on the Island of Hebb, Bribri used to be the Capital of the Archerum Empire. Containing the Archon's Citadel, which was refitted to host a majority of the population of Bribri in the Era of Recovery.

• Thes'narr is the only settlement of the Uulga. Surrounded by mountains, located near the Arctic Frosts of H'uus, Thes'narr survived only thanks to its unique placement. Whilst bordering the twilight zone of H'uus, the Uulga managed to maintain a Monument throughout, and even after, the Age of Ashes. Thes'narr is relatively isolated from the vast majority of H'uus and communication between the other factions is limited.
