The grove. A quiet part if such a thing could exist within Zone 3 under Human(a) control NOT affected by Orian interference. NOT easy to get to, a kind of high plateau in amongst a high mountain range where the peaks were all that you could see from the air.. certainly where drones were concerned.
Thus in reality WHO knew of the existence of that place? Yet it was not unoccupied. A small number of WHOever they were and they ? They were a race far superior to any of these primitives. Even the Mermui would find it hard to argue they were if anything a comparative race to their own. 
NOT as old as the original Mermui. For the Annunaki they had not been a problem. Unknown to them, hidden from them and their deep caverns hid them well.
WELL into the deep formed chasms that had been cut out due to erosion, climatic events including glaciers.
When the major events that changed the planets above ground and in some instances though not as severe; below ground in the oceans.. the seas, the lakes..
This race had the means to survive. Hibernation. A process of suspended in TIME out of phase shifting to protect them.
The powers to do that were in themselves the Gods of Creation, allowing them the abilities to do that.
Additionally their technologies went far beyond even the Annunaki. They tolerated their presence but the Annu were NOT a threat to them.
Turning some of the Primitive species into slaves for their mining purposes amused them. For some bizarre reason the Annu did not trespass in their underground based habitats.
True there was NO Gold, Silver, or other precious metals to be found there. THOSE had long been removed and used for the benefit of the Aterran.
The Ateran had secured off world colonies including PLANETS far beyond the Annunaki. Tpai was amongst those left behind on this world. A silica based life form NOT carbon though some of that did exist within them, it was part of their neural net functions.
A conductive layer that allowed them to use their own Portei Semperu to traverse from one point to another. The one where Tpai was, still worked. WHY had they been left behind when they could have left? Returned IF they had needed to future wise?
Future, ah yes. They had the ability to foresee the FUTURE something about this world that had them remaining hidden. Theirs? No it was what they had seen re this race.. an evolutionary trail that would see a race of their kind, going up against an evil, that in the deepest darkest corners of the Qiverse, if such a thing could exist..
DID exist ; would slaughter BILLIONS to achieve their own evil ambitions. Stopped by these primitives who would see their damnation. Prove to be, more resilient and resourceful, than all of that lot.. How long that process would take was an unknown..
Absolute power corrupts. A known FACT however that POWER is taken, stolen, thieved and whatever it ultimately costs.. re life itself? An advantage over your enemy especially military strength works well but only for so long..
One that is TECHNOLOGICALLY superior, controlling the populace, monitoring, tagging them and having the ability to terminate them at the flick as we might say of a button? You don’t need superior numbers to achieve that when a slave collar or as we see here.. the use of the ‘Pite’ by the Orians?
NOT that the Aterran would interfere. To do so might in itself change the course of history. The one that saw the primitives achieving what they had foreseen, foretold. The Matsupa had already been taught a lesson and had remained enemies of this race.
The original protection of the Annunaki had afforded their safety.. from those, who would take over, use and enslave in their place. Yet it had happened deep in the past... the Aztecuan had fallen to the wiles of the Matsupa who built their altars, the sacrificial stones..
Running with blood.. with the lives of their slaughtered enemies.. hearts cut out.. ceremonial ritualistic killings that soon the Matsupa with their Zealots.. fanatical followers, true believers would echo throughout history.. Ironic that it had been some of those who had bred that fanaticism into them.
From across the oceans.. the ones who sought out the natives, used fear, used new advanced weapons to subjugate, enslave indoctrinate. Blood sacrifices as they crucified unbelievers, or whipped them to death. Nothing had changed.. not even to this moment in time..
Across the planet still those who sought power, domination over others, subjugation, enslavement now using what their off world masters had given unto them; the means to pacify their chosen victims.
In return they reaped the benefits whilst others looked on and waited for as had been prophecy, those who live by the sword shall die by the sword,,
The ‘horsemen of the apocalypse’. . Prevented by the Aterran. Could not truly see that happen. The centuries continued.. the Aterran left behind fell into hibernation. Until the day it happened.
The awakening had seen them rise from the chambers to a whole new world but still aligned with what had been foretold.
The massive earth shock waves had indeed trashed the planet, the volcanic eruptions and the rising sea levels sending billions to their doom..
Did NOT change the ultimate outcome of the prophecy.Then they knew, knew as the arrival was the first of the pages to the new story unfolding.
The Arcan.. Not from this world. The one who had been Aterran known as Zad.. had been aware of his presence. Has uncovered the Portei Semeru teminus created by them.
The control device hidden now revealed. By another Aterran. The bringing together all of the advanced technology, what it manifested would see these primitives finally rising up, fighting back.
The start of the prophecy, that soon would be fulfilled. The end of their enslavement, the ability to see their over crowding gone..
Taken in their billions for food by the Orians. reducing the population levels substantially. The genome altered so the reproduction could only be carried out by a Progestor,.
The numbers reduced to levels where they were not fighting amongst themselves.. but for their lives against the enemy from deep within the Qiverse. Warlords, enslavers, the Matsupa and their hatred for the Human(a) ? No a race known as the ‘ Sanctified’. .
Cruel well comparisons with the Matsupa on par some might say, indoctrination, sacrificial offerings to their Gods.. but the ‘ Sanctified’ were in some instances far more decisive. more incisive. To achieve their lust for power, beyond even the Gods of Creation themselves.
Win a few, lose a few did not bother them. Up against an Omini losses occurred.. just move on .. The Jin who allied to the Matsupa could be persuaded to join their holy war.. with terrifying powers such that even the Matsupa feared,
They decimated whole worlds.. turned worlds into gas giants or triggered massive black holes to swallow them up into the darkness beyond,
The Omini did not fear them. They might have cursed their existence but where there is light there will always be darkness. 
A balance of sorts.. the Gods of Creation including Portia loved their games..
To play one race off against another sit back and take in the carnage.. the good, the bad, the indifference.
ALL played out to the point of maybe an extinction event; a complete reset..
Latqua the God of Chaos.. born of the same race the Gods of Creation.. with the one they brought forth the one they called the Jester..
An immortai, being of immense power; who existed to play the game with a potency, that was and could be note could be, always to its amusement.
I jest not.. it was and could assume ANY form. Whatever race .. that of course included resembling its enemy.. its foes..
Spot the one who did not belong, was not of their race?
A wild card and not under the control of nor answerable to the Gods of Creation.
What it did when it decided to PLAY the GAME; could decide the fate of an entire race.
NOT as powerful as a Progestor. IT could not create life.. play with lives.. mess with them to its own amusement, destroy BUT NOT CREATE.
The presence of one in this moment in TIME ? The Matsupa, already knew of this being.. Their hatred was tempered with the a sense of
FEAR..
