Editing Notes from Freedom City setting for Man'O War (section)

===THE PRESERVERS===
During the time of the first true humans, aliens known as “the Preservers”
visited Earth. The Preservers interfered with and encouraged the evolution of life across the galaxy. On Earth, they performed genetic experiments on tribes of primitive humans and collected extensive genetic samples, used to “seed” other planets in the galaxy with human life. The Preservers created a self-contained environment on the far side of Earth’s Moon and planted a human colony there, where it developed in isolation from the rest of the human race.
Despite their name and their devotion to promoting life, the Preservers were not kind. They were alien, and they often treated their human subjects no better than laboratory animals. They showed no interest in the Serpent People, because of the saurians’ civilization or genetics no one knows. Once they had done their work, the Preservers departed, taking with them numerous DNA samples, leaving behind scattered examples of their technology and the artificial lunar environment they created.
The alien intervention gave humanity a vital leg-up. Humans advanced by the Preservers eventually founded the island nation of Atlantis, which quickly rivaled the Serpent Empire of Lemuria in both technology and magical power. The two nations fought a series of wars, ending in the destruction of both and the sinking of Atlantis and Lemuria in the Great Cataclysm. So ended the great First Age of humanity as well as the Last Age of Lemuria.
Although there is evidence of the Preservers and their interventions throughout the galaxy, the ultimate fate of the aliens themselves remains unknown. The most popular theory is the Preservers transcended this plane of existence—and any interest in it—long ago.
