The destruction of Earth was no accident—it was an act of war. The moon-sized meteor that wiped out humanity’s home was not a natural disaster but a calculated attack. The culprits? A species from Ortruna, now extinct.
This species, known as the Xelari, possessed immense magical abilities that allowed them to manipulate stone and planetary bodies. They were among the most technologically advanced species on Ortruna, and they saw humanity’s rapid progress in space travel as a threat. Humans had begun expanding beyond their solar system, exploring deep space at an alarming rate. The Xelari believed they were meant to be the dominant force in the galaxy, and humanity’s existence challenged their vision.
Fearing that humans would surpass them, the Xelari devised a plan—hurling a colossal meteor toward Earth, ensuring humanity’s extinction before they could become a true rival. They infused the meteor with magic, making it nearly indestructible, preventing any attempt to destroy it before impact. And so, in 2078 A.D., Earth met its end.

But the Xelari underestimated humanity’s resilience. Against all odds, 2 billion humans escaped to Ortruna. When they discovered the truth—that their home had been wiped out deliberately—humanity responded with ruthless efficiency. Declaring war on the Xelari, they launched a brutal campaign that resulted in the complete eradication of the species. The Xelari homeworlds were destroyed, their empires crumbled, and their influence was erased from history.
Only a few Xelari survived—those who surrendered before the final battles. These individuals were spared but stripped of their former status. Now, in the present day, the remaining Xelari live humbly, working on Magic Ships as Animal Wizards or waiters for the Chefs. They have no political power, no military, and no means to ever challenge humanity again.
And yet, despite their downfall, their actions left an irreversible mark on history. The destruction of Earth shaped the course of the Unimaginable World forever.
