WAR: CODEX
This series will cover a multitude of different battles and wars that have been waged from all parts of the galaxy. Kal’Morran, Harpii, Walango, or human, one thing remains clear:
War. War never changes.
THE ANIMOSITY BETWEEN KAL’MORRANS AND HARPII: AN INTRODUCTION
It began as most first contact stories did: miscommunication, misinterpretation, and death. The differences in the ways of life and philosophies of the Kal'Morrans and the Harpii warriors were noticed upon their very first encounter a whole thousand years previous, and continue to persist into today.
There is no "official" story agreed upon by either party, and both governments in question will insist that the version brought back to them by their soldiers were, in fact, the correct manner as to how this altercation took down. The Council had made multiple attempts in the past to twenty years to collect enough evidence for one side or the other, and has been unsuccessful in doing so. The Council has no official stance on the first contact encounter between the Kal'Morrans and Harpii, and due to diplomatic purposes would rather see this bad blood between the two races dead, and buried.
KAL'MORRA: THEY CAME FROM THE AIR
[The Official story from the Kal'Morran perspective. This is the widely accepted as the truth among Kal'Morrans and their sympathizers]
The Kal'Morran Sun Warriors came across a space-faring vessel that had crash landed near the lakes of Calari and Bah-rami. Kal'Morran sources claim that there were no survivors in the spaceship as they were all killed upon impact.
Having no idea who or what these "aliens" were, they took the bodies from the ship and interred them in the local temple for inspection.
Without knowing it, upon the Sun Warriors inspecting the ship they activated a primitive distress beacon, allowing the Harpii in the chain of command to send more ships to investigate the call. There were ten Harpii "Warbirds" in all, and within a three days time of the activation of the beacon, they had arrived on Kal'Morran land.
Meanwhile, the corpses of the Harpii crew members who had died on impact had- by Kal'Morran accounts- began spreading an illness that ravaged the elder and younger population. Children and elders apparently died by the thousands, and was devastating to the Kal'Morrans at the time.
When the Harpii Warbirds arrived, The Kal'Morran were ill-equipped to death with the sudden onslaught of such foreign might and power. With both the plague and sudden invading force of such fierce people, the Kal'Morran had unwittingly brought upon the end of the Resh'ike era.
