Chapter 73 - The Zyphirians: The Scholars of the Stars

In contrast to the Arkanites, the Zyphirians were a peaceful, intellectual race, focused on knowledge and discovery. Their home planet, Nerion, was a lush, forested world rich in scientific and technological advancements. The Zyphirians' fleet was smaller but highly advanced, specializing in energy manipulation and stealth systems that could shield entire fleets from the council's sensors.The Zyphirians, led by their leader, Sylas, were reluctant to get involved in any military conflict. Their race had long avoided war, focusing instead on understanding the cosmos. But Lena's plea had been different. She had not asked for an army; she had asked for wisdom.Sylas, a tall and graceful figure with long silver hair and glowing blue skin, met with Lena via hologram. His eyes, wise yet weary, scanned the image of Zaltron's troubled skies."We Zyphirians abhor violence," he said gently. "But we cannot stand idly by while the council seeks to destroy all that we have worked to protect. The core you wield may hold the answers we have sought for generations. Together, we will unlock its secrets."Their knowledge of energy manipulation could prove invaluable in understanding the core's power, and Sylas was determined to assist Lena in using it to its fullest potential.
