Biography[]
Humanity began as a primitive species, gradually evolving through survival and the accumulation of knowledge. As humans advanced, they became increasingly ambitious, exploring their world and eventually reaching for the stars. However, their progress was being watched by a more advanced alien race, which viewed humanity as an experiment with dangerous potential.
The aliens left behind a "sentinel" to monitor humanity's growth. The sentinel was not a tool of destruction, but a silent observer, witnessing humanity's rise and fall, as they developed advanced technologies, weapons, and destructive habits. The aliens saw humanity’s greatest flaw—its arrogance and belief in its own supremacy—which could lead to its self-destruction.
Eventually, the sentinel revealed humanity’s potential future: a race capable of unimaginable harm. However, humans, blinded by their pride, dismissed the warning and continued their pursuit of power. The sentinel’s creators withdrew, leaving humanity to face its own fate. The true enemy was never the aliens, but humanity’s unchecked ambition and arrogance.
Trivia[]
