Our War Begins

Our War Begins is a script written by the Luminoth scanned by Samus. It is in the section "First Phase" in her Logbook. It shows how the Luminoth built Crystals to bring light to Dark Aether to defend themselves against the dark-infested creatures, the Ing. It helped them travel through the dangerous atmosphere. Poorly, this defense was just a little of what they needed. They needed more armor and stronger weapons.

Lore Script
"We developed Crystals that brought the Light of Aether to the dark world. Using these Crystals allowed our warriors to explore the enemy lands, to bring war to the Ing. Sadly, the Crystals were not enough. We needed stronger weapons, better armor. We withdrew from Dark Aether while our greatest minds devised new engines of war."
