Hey there, everyone!
The thing about Glyos and its sister lines is that, while we do get snippets from time to time, a lot of the story is left open to interpretation.
So just who is Sullkren? Whatever happened to Rothan Pheyden? Why are the Mushi getting involved? And just how do the Delphi fit in to everything?
Consider this thread a place to share your own version of the Greater Glyos Multiverse. Whether if it's something as vast as an entire history of the Glysos System and how everything fits together, or as focused as a single character's bio, let's hear what worlds you've created for the Travelers and Sincroids to inhabit.
Have fun, storytellers!
Following his battle with Argen, a badly damaged Enyriun quickly found himself surrounded by Imperium forces, enraged at the "betrayal" of their leader's right hand. Only by the sudden intervention of the Crayboth twins Gryganull and Grellanym did the Phaseon manage to escape, though not without heavy losses to his own Liberation ranks. How could he turn his Gendrone brethren from the darker path that the elder Exellis had warned them of on Sendollest?
What remained of Enyriun's forces quickly arrived on Alcray, where already the Crayboth had gathered, brought together by visions of Argen's rise to power and the return of the Villser. Strange visitors could be seen among them: a Traveler who Enyriun had last seen when Glyos had been united; Travelers clad in some kind of armor that seemed to resonate with power; and a creature the likes of which Enyriun had never encountered. Hidden in the crowds, the Phaseon thought he glimpsed a Gobon in tattered rags and a blaster at its hip, but thought better of it: after all, why would the Renegades reveal themselves now?
"We have received word that Hades has dispatched Argen, at least for now," Sullkren began, mulling over the words, "but that is only temporary, isn't it?" There was no response, but the silence of those gathered spoke volumes. "What are our options, then?" the Traveler asked, turning to face all those gathered, but lingering over the creature longest of all. Seeing this cue, it spoke in a whistling voice. "We have been studying the same technology that has allowed the Villser to influence the Gendrones," it began, "and we believe that we have found something that we may be able to use without fear of corruption." At this, the creature turned to Enyriun, giving the Phaseon a sad sort of look. "The question is, are there any who will take the risk?"
Enyriun turned to the Crayboth that had saved him, that he once had helped escape from Glyaxia seemingly so long ago. He turned to the few Phaseons that remained loyal to him, even some he did not recognize whose chests bore the Imperial emblem, and to the few Buildmen that stood beside them. Weakly, the would-be Liberator stepped through the crowd, each step heavier than the last. "How can you ask that of us?" he asked, more out of confusion than defiance. "We, who have tried to fight for a place as equals, who have witnessed this corruption firsthand," he continued, "you would now ask us to risk the only independence we have, the only resistance we have to the Villser, for what purpose?"
"For you to save your kind, Enyriun," came another voice, "to lead the Children of Renegades in creating a better age for us all." From behind the creature stepped a familiar face, one the Phaseon had not seen since the dusty plains of Sendollest. "All so we may defy a darker fate . . . together."
Skeleden's final release came a wave before Hades' return. Likely that's to keep from competing with the debuting Glyarmor but the timing is interesting.
Skeleden first appeared a wave after Argen took the same Redlaw form of Phanost, a first for the Gendrone leader and his most ominous form since Dark Argen.
In our time with Skeleden, no story blurbs were dropped about him, most of Matt's story was carried by Argen at the time, as if the Skeleden had no impact on the Glyos canon.
the same thing? In my head they are, just more of an old world vs. new world thing and they are both words for mechanical beings.
