The human race was living on Earth when the irascible Rhiis descended on them and a terrible war broke out. The Rhiis would kill and maim without concern. It was then that Tallanin's ancestors took 10,000 young beings and set sail from the deceased planet and found a home on Proximus Centauri.
General Bloom and the Star Keeper were parents of Tallanin, but that the Star Keeper was Tallanin's mother was unbeknownst to her son.
As the Star Keeper's reign was coming to an end, by his deeds and heroism, Tallanin became known throughout the galaxy as the new Star Keeper.
