Hasmak-Dekara/Thousandfold War

The history of the Hasmak-Dekara begins with the Okulaurum (literally, "Wise Ones"), who created a species, based on their own genetics, known as the Ignis ( "Skeleton Gods") as servants. The Ignis eventually rebelled, breaking away from their masters and systematically obliterating their cities until the Okulaurum were driven underground. There, they were presumed extinct until small colonies of them were discovered living both in Fezon's crust, and in the crust of four other planets. The Ignis eventually created the Taeski ( "Snake People")  and ruled peacefully over them for a period of 50,000 years. Eventually, like their Ignis masters, the Taeski rebelled and broke away from the Ignis. Some Taeski remained with their masters, defending them and being rewarded with a place in Ignis society. These Taeski bred with the Ignis and, while no different from other Taeski, are commonly referred to as "Red Taeski" due to the hematite in the southernmost portions of Fezon.

Eventually, the Ignis reenslaved the Red Taeski, but were later attacked and overthrown by the other group of Taeski - the "Blue Taeski" (named for the banners they first flew when returning) - which had retreated out into the wastelands. The Blue Taeski threw the Ignis out of their cities, along with the Red Taeski, and still dwell in those cities to this day. The Blue Taeski drove the Ignis into the mountains where they still live to this day. However, they were completely merciless with their Red bretheren.

Believing the Red Taeski to be monsters, having betrayed them and having bred with the Ignis, the Blue Taeski launched an all-out genocidal war, seeking to exterminate them along with the Ignis. The Red Taeski retreated out into the deserts, creating nomadic camps and living in the dunes and wastes. Forty million years later, the only thing to have changed is the technology. The Red Taeski have become the Crimson Dominion, and the Blue Taeski have become known as the Azure Empire.

With aid from the Senate, the Empire become a pinnacle of technological supremacy. The Dominion refused the Senate's aid, and their soldiers still hand-make their weapons and dwell in the deserts. Despite this, and despite the Empire being vastly superior, the Dominion has held out against them for millions of years. This eternal war became known as "Hasmak-Dekara" or "The Thousandfold War", and rages to this day.
