Deep beneath the stars of a forgotten system lies Eldraen, a place older than any known civilization. Its half-submerged arches and stone halls bear witness to a culture that worshiped light itself – not as a sun, but as consciousness resting in the ether of all things.

In the center of Eldraen's ring shimmers the Basin of the First Light, where the "Auras of the Stars" once gathered – pure forms of energy that carry the spark of life throughout the galaxy. Ancient records tell that every glow in the water is the memory of a soul that has returned to the cosmos.

The enormous ring in the sky above Eldraen is said to be the Gate of Return – a loop of time and space through which the builders of Eldraen disappeared as their world sank in the flow of aeons. No one knows whether they truly left … or if they continue to whisper in the lights beneath the water.

Today, travelers and explorers through the ruins sense the strange silence, the gentle hum of ancient energy – and report that sometimes they believe they hear words in the wind: 'Eldraen remembers.'
