Origin

For thousands of years, puri have proliferated in the mists of Akenat. But while the Great Squid sires her daughters in relative safety, some (like her originally) are born far away in an unknown sector of the high-risk zone and wander endlessly among the stars.... They are growing and developing more strongly, nourished by the major influence of cosmic currents....Yet... these same currents, which brought galia an era of peace and prosperity, have changed.... Mistrust and doubt are now the forerunners of a new era of war that is dawning....Pushed by this change, the puris are regrouping. Particularly fragile and powerless against the hatred of galia's other species, they are relentless in their search for a new haven of peace, which alone can ensure the survival of their species in these uncertain times.....

These spontaneous gatherings of puris, also known as purts, are similar to a bird migration (an ancestral species of the earth), according to the renowned MUD biologist named Eltis Dominigo) who wrote a book on puris. This group consisted of 16 puri drifting in the Galia Expanse.

Their quest for a safe zone brought them to the heart of a high-risk area in December 2623. It was here, in an unfamiliar area, that our puris stopped. They quickly sensed that something was going on in the area, that an unknown force was at work. It wasn't the sensation of a cosmic current guiding them, but a different phenomenon. A planet as blue as the sea illuminated the area with its light, while another, darker green, seemed to absorb the surrounding light.

Everything happened very quickly... At first, they thought they saw a demonic whale bearing down on them. The whale soon began firing at the green planet, which immediately burst into flames. In reality, it was an Ecos Bombarella that had come to seed a planet. Intrigued by the sight, the Puris approached the huge ship. It was then that a Tigu appeared in front of the puris, their natural understanding of languages allowing them to grasp the danger. On board were a team of scientists and ecologists, who spotted the purt ahead of them only too late. A missile left the ship and headed for the planet, trapping the Puris in its path....

Luckily, the missile exploded in mid-air not far from the group of puris (a gesture by the ship's commander under the influence of the tigu who had returned to the ship to protect the purts).

The explosion was violent, and the blast landed on the puris, carrying a cloud of toxic products in its wake. As the puris were immune to most toxins, their prognosis was not life-threatening. However, their reactions were instinctive, and an immense fog soon darkened the area.

Then the anomaly occurred. A circle of light appeared in the sidereal blackness. A multicolored halo that grew at a rapid rate, reminiscent of Barrot's story. The ECOS realized this, and an emergency maneuver was initiated. Whether this was due to the fog, the products being sent to the planet or the panic that now reigned on board, but the ship seemed to be moving in contradictory directions.

The tigu reappeared in front of the puri to force them to flee, but it was too late: the wormhole disappeared as quickly as it had arrived, and with it the troop of puri and the tigu.

Everyone found themselves on the other side, in a new dimension. The first thing that reassured the Puris was that they could feel Iris's cosmic currents. However, the information seemed blurred, contradictory and uncertain... They drifted for a few days before making another encounter.

As if attracted by this event, and although we don't know why or how, all the puris and tigu in the area of this new dimension had gathered together.... So, in addition to our 16 puris and the tigu accompanying them, a barely believable mass of 10,000 puris and 426 tigus appeared.

Meanwhile, the eco-scientist group studied the matter and recovered a puri traveling alone (now known to have been Jack and Saand's travelling companion). This enabled them to develop a technology that would allow them to trace the puri's sensitivity, even in the new dimension, while enabling sensitive communication. The puri could now communicate with puris and tigus in the other dimension and find a solution to their return.

The first “exchanges” between dimensions enabled the purts to react to their situation, and consider a possible return. In fact, expert in understanding the languages of Galia, outstanding travellers and with a thousand years of experience of the Great Squid, with whom she still maintains a mental link, the little puri encouraged the troupe to embark on an exceptional quest, that of the 8 treasures of Galia...

Indeed, ancient stories tell of passageways into other dimensions, some of them random events, but one of them told of a strange story that allowed a passageway to be opened voluntarily, with the help of 8 treasures...

These treasures would come from 8 living planets, like neuno, which would travel across the universe... As influenced by Iris, these planets would move away in times of peace, only to reappear when the time for war came.

So it was only natural that the new troop should arrive at the first of these planets, Ratnapura. Letting themselves be carried by the cosmic currents, the Puris soon arrived on its thick grassy expanse. The planet becomes their first oasis, and the starting point of their quest. They soon learn of the first of the treasures, the reputation gems, particularly plentiful on Ratnapura.
