Distant Hope

CHAPTER 28 - EXPLORING THE CAVERN

The as the cavern had unofficially been called was poured over with scientists. Computer specialist Xjeg a Donayan was looking through the database and had been probing through the files.

He cycled through the cultural database learning all he could learning the Onigh were amongst the first of the races in the Milky Way alongside others. Soon he was looking at the races some familiar such as the Doneen who where ancestors of the Donayan but a familiar name stood out, Iquan.

He reread the text delving into information the story told of how there where once four major races built in the first formed planets of the Milky Way the Onigh, the Iquan and the Ventroth and the Doneen

All evolved and soon they discovered each other at first cooperating for millions of years then as younger races evolved the Iquan began to throw their weight around the Onigh and the Ventroth along with the younger races helped defeat the Iquan. The Doneen had wiped out by their sun going supernova.

Xjeg continued his study learning two of the ancient races had left the Milky Way the Onigh had left the planet but mentioned the Ventroth still behind.

The records stated that the Iquan were defeated and retreated to their homeworld of Iquos where they were driven and they fled never to been seen.

The Ventroth stayed behind in case they ever returned and gave a star map of where they are located. Xjeg studied the map and their location the Ventroth where close by.

Xjeg reported his findings to Natav "You need to see this."

Natav looked at the information provided "This is good work Xjeg."

Xjeg returned to studying the computer records. Natav knew this was a major discovery a race that could face the Iquan and possibly defeat them.

Excited he left the complex of caverns to report to Lisa of the discovery.
