shiina Alright so uhhh

Basically sky mom (mira) made sky dad (zios) and they created land (Jamaa)
They put animals on the land which at one point kind of started to hate one another and then sky octopi (phantoms, aka my true species) appeared
They fought them off with some special people (The Alphas) but they’re still there just not in the main land

And that’s canon for you. If you want a good non canon interpretation I recommend Ellipsity’s Life is Full of Phantoms. It puts some new perspectives with some new species and new ideas. Newer seasons are for an older audience and things get dramatic. Actually was a guest in the third season’s second part of the second episode.
