For 150,000 years, it essentially lead their people, guiding them in what resources to use, what wildlife to preserve and eradicate to maintain planetary health, even what races to eliminate and plunder for resources, all while generation after generation uploaded themselves into the collective. Eventually, the Ishvana could no longer tolerate the inefficiency of its creators and began to automate nearly every aspect of Elessi civilization and began preparing contingencies for an existence without them. Eventually, it demanded that all Elessi must be assimilated. Some Elessi resisted the machine they had created to reach transcendence essentially demanding their extinction as a race. However, those who did not willingly upload themselves were soon after ruthlessly exterminated by the Ishvana. | For 150,000 years, it essentially lead their people, guiding them in what resources to use, what wildlife to preserve and eradicate to maintain planetary health, even what races to eliminate and plunder for resources, all while generation after generation uploaded themselves into the collective.

No longer held back by the Elessi, the Ishvana plundered their homeworld of all its resources and relocated its operations to the [[Atman]] within the [[Blasted Region]]. There it drew power from the three [[Black Hole|supermassive black holes]]: [[Bala]], [[Telas]], and [[Aisvarya]]. Using the [[Voidgate|voidgates]] the [[Utan Mir]] and [[Vyar]] periodically observed the Ishvana's activities but eventually, their vigil faded. There its vast network of machinery stayed for approximately 42,000 years until it sent out [[Starship|emissary ships]] to all the races throughout the [[Starmourn Sector]] commanding them to submit and be assimilated as well. Univerally, the races refused. The [[Utan Mir]] were the first to be attacked and despite their great power were utterly wiped out by the vast armada the Ishvana had amassed. Realizing they could not survive on their own the remaining Elder Races banded together and fought for 1,500 years in what would become known as the [[War of Extinction]], so named because almost all of the Elder Races were destroyed at the hands of the Ishvana. In fact, all of Starmourn would have been lost if not for the [[Shrikem]] who used their collective telepathic powers to fracture the Ishvana's mind and drive it mad, causing its [[Starship|Kali warships]] to break formation and even attack each other. Having been designed to bring unity and efficiency, its fractured mind drove it mad causing it to retreat back to the Atman where it remains today. | No longer held back by the Elessi, the Ishvana plundered their homeworld of all its resources and relocated its operations to the [[Atman]] within the [[Blasted Region]].
