The story

Not one planet. Lots of them.

Not one planet. Lots of them.

Chapter 1

Not one planet. Lots of them.

"Orion" is just our name for lots of civilizations in that part of the sky. They're at very different distances from us. It was never one single world.

Millions of years ago

An empire of control

The old Orion worlds lived under harsh rulers who controlled everything. Their capital was a planet called Hoova.

Chapter 3

Rebels in the shadows

A secret resistance, the Black League, fought back from a dark crystal moon. Why "black"? It just means "hiding in the shadows".

Chapter 4

Fighting fire with fire

The rebels used the same weapons as the rulers, and everything burned. So Orion souls moved on, to Maldek (a planet that's gone now), then Mars, then Earth.

“Fire is best put out with water.”

Chapter 5

The water planet's lesson

Earth is mostly water, the perfect place to cool old Orion stories down and end them well. Those who manage it become "angels of Orion".

Since 1993

From Orion's era to Sirius

Around 1993, Earth began moving out of an old Orion era of limits and into a brighter Sirius era. And Orion itself now shines with light too.

In their own words

“We fought fire with fire, and the whole house burned down. Now, on a planet that's mostly water, we're learning that water puts fire out.”
