 In about 1000 SF, [[gods:ra|Ra-Surya]] would call together the mortals and gods and begin work on a project called the Superi: a grand device that would allow the gods to break their dependence on mortal worship and ascend to a higher plane of existence. When the moment came for its activation, though, the world would look on in horror as [[gods:rudri|Rudri]] betrayed him and attempted to claim the Superi for themself.
-The two battled, and Rudri was eventually ejected, but Ra was trapped within and the device was irreparably damaged. If he left, the device wouuld explode, destroying not only Torandor but the entire Onra system. He warned the other gods to stay away, and would remain imprisoned for millennia until the [[history:aor|Age of Reckoning]], when the Superi would be destroyed.

 Rudri was banished and fell from divine grace after this incident. Ever since, they have skulked the shadows, rejected by gods and mortals alike.

 The Kaaren of Destruction, carrying all that was left of Torandor, touched down on [[settings:jaern:geleia|Geleia]], Jaern in the year 7812. The first days on Jaern were difficult - after all, the planet was still frozen from a lightyears-long journey through space - but they survived. A seed store on board the Kaaren gave rise to familiar crops, and over time a new home was born.
+==== Remnants: The Tarusian Temple ====
+A mere fifty Tarusian priests made it to Jaern. As keepers of knowledge and history, they felt more keenly than others the loss of their old world. In attempts to salvage something, they turned to a mechanical oracle on board the Kaaren. They meticulously recorded everything they could, then shared this knowledge with the new Jaernian settlers. Over time, they would make great strides in technology which led to creation of automaton servants.
+This practice would spiral out of control, though, when an island was destroyed due to an accident involving a Tarusian machine. This incident would sour the Tarusian temple's name for a millennium and a half afterwards, with many Tarusians retreating into obscurity.
