The Zirridian Story: Explained
« on: August 12, 2010, 10:04:47 PM »
Alright, there's been some confusion about just who Zirridian is. Let me break it down.

In the history of our dimension, there was once a time when the siblings known as the Sage Three (K2323, Kai, and Hikaru) ruled everything in this dimension, warring only with each other, and second to none. While in our reality, this came crashing down upon the year 2021, the date when the mortal empires of non-magic began to take the dimension, it was almost not so. It almost played out a different way...

Imagine instead that an evil dictator came to be born, a sage of some sorts. This sage was exposed, by accident, to a dangerous energy following his birth which was emitted from an odd artifact -- a gateway of some sorts. This energy would come to be known as Twilight Energy. This dictator, in alternate reality from our own, would come to control... The entire dimension.

A group formed, rebelling against the dictator. One member of this group was Zak, son of Logan Kent (who had been one of the well-known leaders among the mortal empires that came to power in our reality in 2021), who went so far as to try to master Zirridian's own energy against him... This would result in Zak being sent back in time to a few years before 2021, giving him the chance to warn the Sage 3 and his father about Zirridian...

But Zirridian followed Zak through time. Realizing what was in front of him, Zirridian knew he had a whole new reality to conquer. He never considered his past self an issue, as his past self had not been born yet (if he had, he was a small child). And so, Zirridian began to rise to power... By forming the Twilight Empire.

The Twilight Empire's history covers a lot of ground from destroying Reloria's original homeworld (not the Ancient Relorians) to the Nyx War where they came to an end, so I won't get much into that.

Fast-forward to the year 2033 on the civilized ship of Rabbit Lorian of the Xanacorian Empire. Its a luxurious ship owned by Lord Xanacore himself. Here, a meeting takes place between Zirridian and XANACore regarding an alliance. The meeting is cut short when a somewhat-different Zirridian arrives, killing the Zirridian in the meeting room. This new Zirridian is the Zirridian from present-day, now an adult, aware of just what his counterpart has been doing all this time. This Zirridian takes the place of his counterpart as the ruler of the Twilight Empire, taking his power along with it.

A small note: This is not the original concept for Zirridian. The original concept didn't make sense story-wise and was slowly replaced throughout GE. This is the result of gradual change. The story above is how it played out with Zirridian and IS cannon.

Also, the whole 'time travel' thing under normal circumstances IC is not possible, because several years ago, K2323 and Kai used their Genesis Powers to seal time itself, preventing time travel, among other things. Twilight energy has been, so far, one of the only ways around this.

*Twitch* O_o .... He. Used. My. Name. Before I was known, but he used my name.... Blackcat shall dies now....
*Walks away to get nukes*
There is only so much pain that can be taken before the bonds and chains of sanity are forsaken
It is in these lonesome times that we reach towards the light sublime
And from that light we pull the resolution of our time
To begin the end and start anew
