Arboris, the world known as the Citadel of Life, was once a lush paradise overflowing with diverse ecosystems, home to countless alien species and ancient flora. Over time, as civilizations rose, Arboris became a place of wonder and reverence, revered as the beating heart of the galaxy’s natural beauty. But with progress came the inevitable price: technology advanced, industries grew, and the ancient forests and natural landscapes slowly gave way to sprawling cities, each a testament to Arboris’ unmatched ingenuity and craftsmanship.
At the center of this transformation stood the Citadel of Life, a massive structure created to preserve what remained of the planet's native ecosystem. Towering over the industrial cities, it served as a refuge for rare and endangered species, an artificial oasis sustained by alien technology and a network of bioengineered support systems. People came from across the galaxy to visit the Citadel, but as years passed, it became clear that the preservation of nature would need more than mere admiration. The planet’s resources continued to drain away, fueling intergalactic expansion and relentless innovation.
