The Concord of Mutual Disdain was originally formed as a peace treaty between two warring races on Kardakouk, the Queltl and the Tar'et. Their war was not for the ownership of the planet or over perceived and petty slights. It was a war of survival. No living thing on Kardakouk arrived of their own free will. Long ago a precursor empire shaped the planet into an aquatic prison and filled its prison blocks with many races whose crimes are long since forgotten. The empire then disappeared into the stars, never to return. |

Many tried and failed to escape, and almost all who managed to break out failed to adapt to the new and dangerous aquatic ecosystem. The Queltl and the Tar'et were the most successful and the most suitable to survive in the depths. However, the two races used different means of communication and saw each other as dangerous local fauna or cohorts of the precursor empire. Their conflicts continued for many years, with escalating intensity and technology as they re-engineered tech from their old prison complexes. |
