We decided to build a device to recover our lost planetary energy from Dark Aether. Without this energy, the dark world would cease to be, and our world would be restored to stability.

Our studies of the Ing revealed the source of their attacks as dark energy. We built [weapons to use this energy, thinking it could overload energy targets and eliminate them. We soon learned our error, as the [[Dark Beam]] was not of great effect on the Ing. We then began to develop a [[Light Beam|weapon that used light energy]]. This weapon would dispatch the Ing with terrible efficiency.

In time, the Ing began to possess Luminoth as well as creatures. Friends and family members became the enemy, spilling Luminoth blood across the land.

Should the shielding fail, all Luminoth were prepared to self-terminate rather than become a weapon for the Ing.
