Chapter 8 - What's inside Yudhyate

"So who should we search first? Kamrales or Tamasurs?" Kevin asked.

We suggested that we have already started our search for Kamrales so we should finish this work first. We went inside the museum, sat in a room and locked it. Priya opened the book. It was all written in Sanskrit and we could understand nothing but Priya knew the language so she will explain us. She read:

During the 1056th Solar Period (when the earth was revolving for the 1056th time around the sun, about 4.3 billion years ago from today) the vast population of microorganisms heated up and turned into a gaseous state which eventually condensed to form the first multicellular complete living beings on Earth, Kamrales. At first, we were only about 50 in number and were motionless like a puppet. But as the years passed, we got to know who we are, where we are and what can we do. Till the 3493rd Solar Period, every original Kamrale lived but then one day one of them melted and flew away in the air like ashes. At that time they realised the need for a greater population. They took out their cells from the skin and all the organs and left them in the heat. These cells evaporated and condensed to form a newer generation of Kamrales, similar to the original ones. We lived for an average of 8,000 years. Over the years we progressed and advanced our lifestyle and environment and evolved ourselves. In the 50943rd Solar Period, we became very different from our ancestors. We were not limited only to Earth but we travelled in outer space also and occupied other planets. Travelling between planets and galaxies became common for people. Kamrales lived a peaceful and enjoyable life. We even discovered how to travel between dimensions and how to relate space and time. All was going well until the unwanted came. During the 85740th Solar Period, we tried to evolve ourselves more, inserting more features into us using the existing organisms and creatures but this made a whole new kind of species, called humans. We didn't know that it would be a disaster for us. What we made would have the intention to rule us in the future! When we produced humans they were very similar to us, but gradually evolved, faster than us, and became what they are now. Their mental and physical advancement was also quicker than ours. At a time, we were at the same level. But from the start, we lived in peace and discussed how both groups can live together. Both helped each other in need and never troubled the other. Many years later, Lybians, people of galaxy MC909 came here to expand their settlement but Kamrales and Humans together fought against them to save the Earth with an easy win. We also cleaned the population on their planet. But humans also had very negative characteristics. They couldn't stand anyone else rising more than them. So they began harming us and threatened to be within the limits specified by them. When we struggled for ourselves and not following their commands, they waged a war, the most ruining war on the planet ever. They had grown very much more than us in every way. When we were left a few, we gave up and left because we didn't want to be extinct. The survivors settled on the planet Xena of galaxy MC909, where a physical route from Earth does not reach. I, Mersia, the ruler of Kamrales am writing this souvenir so that our people know that our first and foremost aim is to kill the whole human race. The earth belongs to us first, we were born there first and it is our motherland which is snatched away from us. We have to get back what belongs to us, come what may. I will keep writing this book even after I die.

"So this was just about the initial life of Kamrales", Priya rose her head from the book, "now it will tell about their features. Hey, are you all listening?"

"Yes yes, we are!", We got up and sat as we slept there because we found the story boring, "Continue please".

This is a very confidential part as it tells about the weaknesses of Kamrales and how to kill them. For our safety, we have designed this part of the book such that anyone who is not a Kamrale and touches this part will fade away in minutes.

We were shocked, and Priya was terrified as she was the one to touch it. She burst out into tears. We told her to check if there is some solution to save her. She flipped through the pages of the book but could find nothing that could prevent her death. She sat down in the corner, sobbing. We were extremely melancholy and went toward her for the last hug. We all sat there, with our faces down, silently. We didn't even get to know when half an hour passed and Priya was still alive. We were now confused, do those minutes mean more than half an hour? We waited for another 15 minutes, with our hopes for Priya rising again and nothing happened to her till now.

"Hey, you are still alive!" I was delighted to see she was still alive. But Adam wasn't feeling the way I was, "The book said that anyone who is not a Kamrale will touch this part, that person will die. How are you still alive then?". "Come on Adam aren't you happy that she is alive with us, don't be so mean" Kevin defended her. Priya came in between, "Yeah, I know the book said this but even I don't know how is this possible". Let's forget this, you are alive that's what matters. But Adam was still not satisfied. Nonetheless, Priya started reading the book again.

The Kamrales are made up of heated vapours tied together by a strong bond of carbon monoxide and a very little amount of tantalum, beryllium and haematite with quartz as our lifeline. This makes us very tolerable and muscular creatures. But these elements in our bodies also pose a danger to our life. We are weak in front of radioactive elements. When the Andrean is passed through any radioactive element and then focused upon us, that radiation goes inside our bodies and damages our system which breaks us into our constituent elements. For this reason, we are settled in a galaxy where Andrean is not found. Also, very few species in this Ultiverse know about Andrean. The only thing that gives us quartz is the drākṣā, the creeper. Drākṣā is abundant on our planet and quartz is abundant on Earth. Invading Earth has many advantages for us.

"That's it! Now we know their weakness. We can stop them" Kevin came up suddenly.

"Yes we can but what is Andrean?"

"It is a type of low wavelength radiation emitted naturally in absolute dark spaces in the ultiverse and that's why there is a bad news - Andrean is not found anywhere in solar system"

"Nice!" We all shouted together.

So what should we do now?
