Their long winters were dedicated to study, thought, prayer, and philosophical debate.Īnd to war. It was among the Tandu that writing and education first developed, and in particular physical sciences and construction. Bringing forth food from the tundra-like ground was a difficult task, and communities banded together for the long hours of arduous work during the planting and harvesting of their brief season. They were of average height, stocky, fair-skinned, and tended to be silent and serious. Sedentary hunter/gatherers, these ocean dwellers evolved from many-armed sea creatures, growing and tending the great purple coral reefs that provided both food and shelter.Īs civilization developed, the Tandu-like many other sentient beings-followed the path from town to city, then to city-state, and finally to nation. Eaür - Different from the Tandu and Haduns were the Eaür, who evolved from ocean life in the saline seas.These formed oases amid the frigid surroundings, becoming villages, centers of religious observances, and major trading posts. However, in the vast deserts of ice and snow they discovered numerous volcanic vents. Crossing a land bridge that was briefly accessible during a period of warmth, the Haduns ended up in the coldest, most northerly latitudes of the planet.

For the first several millennia of their existence these peoples were only peripherally aware of each other's existence, as they established themselves with difficulty on a planet whose long winters made development slow and arduous. In fact, the race that we now refer to as the "Endless" started as separate and distinct groups on the planet. Their history is similar to many other peoples who would eventually solve the mysterious physical and mathematical puzzles of space flight: A tale of creation, evolution, growth and prosperity, interlinked with famine, war, disease, and danger.Īn Endless of the Concrete faction, Skuoi Kyryi, whose war-ravaged body is almost totally cyber-prosthetic.
It was the second largest body orbiting a star now known simply as Prime. The Endless society developed on a large, cool planet that they called Tor.
