Rewriting the history of the Master's Pet univese

by
Looking for feedback on this...

I am considering making a major change to the Terradynnian history, which will explain some of the character traits of my characters, why their society is the way it is, and other aspects that will be created soon.

I got to thinking that some like Enigma, Robin, etc are the random mutations arising from a biowar many years ago, a war so far back in history that it is believed to be either a myth, legend, a judgement from the gods or the cause of the covenant. A war so bad, it transcends racial, species, cultural and biological memory. Not only that, the war has affected the civilization, cultures, biology, genetics and technology for millions of years.

While they still use tech, a lot of it, but they will never let tech use them like it did prior to that war.

This would explain why slavery is a big part of their society, as it began after the war ended to aid in the recovery (at first it was those who were aiding and abetting the tech that started the war and soon branched out to include those that wanted to live part or all their lives as a slave hundreds of years later) as the semi-sentient metal that is used for the slaves armbands is but a mere remnant of what it was prior to the war, and why scientists are using some of the Udai slaves to experiment on in an effort to rediscover how to safely remove the living metal from a Nareh's arm after their contract completed for good, but they will never learn how as the tech that created it in order to control those that served it, and that started the great war, was destroyed in order to end the war. Sadly, the scientists never gain access to where the core of the tech that started the war, as where that tech used to reside lies a 50,000 sq Km hole with a 5nm black hole in its center near the planet's core. Also, the ones directly responsible for creating the tech that started the great war, were lost when they detonated the device they created to defeat that tech 100s of years after the war started as a way to atone for what they did.

Basically, it is the remnants of that bad tech that the Terradynnians use today for their benefit as the 'intellect' that it relied on was destroyed. In short, the 'network that the Terradynnians enjoy to this day is nothing more than a severely lobotomized sentient computer with only its core systems remaining functional.

And the sentient computer had also created and used specialized bio, chem and gen bombs in order to decimate the population (which it was in the process of implementing when the black hole device was detonated and destroying the sentient computer. The resulting detonation near the planet's core devastated the surface and dispersing the bio, chem and gen plagues across the planet, infecting and killing billions the first few years after the war ended.

Despite eventually finding cures for the chem and bio plagues, the Genetic plagues were never successfully eradicated as due to their early design, they embedded their coding into all DNA and RNA resulting in random genetic mutations over the proceeding years.



I would like to get feedback, suggestions, ideas, etc on this
