The '''Sebuuk''' are one of the five original [[Spirit Tribes]] created within [[Lethurèa]], each tribe representing a unique aspect of the primordial soul traits gifted by The [[Meera Jenlek|Mother]] and [[Merrik Jenlek|Father]] upon their return to the newborn universe. The Sebuuk are known as the Naïve Children, a moniker that belies their profound cosmic purpose. Though considered the most innocent and inexperienced of the tribes, the Sebuuk embody raw potential, untempered curiosity, and untapped brilliance.
The Sebuuk are one of the most tragic Legends from [[Lethurèa]]. One of the five original [[Spirit Tribes]] created within [[Lethurèa]], each tribe representing a unique aspect of the primordial soul traits gifted by The [[Meera Jenlek|Mother]] and [[Merrik Jenlek|Father]] upon their return to the newborn universe. The Sebuuk are known as the Naïve Children, a moniker that belies their profound cosmic purpose. Though considered the most innocent and inexperienced of the tribes, the Sebuuk embody raw potential, untempered curiosity, and untapped brilliance.


Their role in Lethurèan cosmology is both misunderstood and essential—they are the ones most likely to ask "why," to dream beyond limits, and to wander where the wise fear to tread.

The Sebuuk were the final tribe formed when The Mother and Father returned to Lethurèa to divide the spirits according to their dominant soul traits. While others were assigned for their wisdom, bravery, unpredictability, or love, the Sebuuk were chosen for their spiritual innocence and unformed potential. They are not ignorant by nature, but rather unshaped—divinely raw, brimming with purpose not yet realized.

Though often underestimated, the Sebuuk represent the possibility of divine evolution. Just as children may one day surpass their elders, Sebuuk spirits are capable of transcending their naivety and becoming some of the most powerful beings in Lethurèa, depending on their growth and choices.

In secret, the Sebuuk traveled to Kôthar and '''inverted the Super Nexus''', turning a channel of light into a wound in space. In its place, they birthed the '''[[Black Hole (Lethurèa)|Blackhole]]''', a spiraling gate into '''[[Gozog’nok]]''', the Lethurèan Hell. There they found [[Malis]] bound in cosmic chains, tormented by a thousand suns' worth of silence. And there he smiled.

With cruel instruction, [[Malis]] taught them to weave [[Shadow Bodies]]—false vessels not formed of flesh and breath, but of black flame and volatile matter. These oily husks hissed with dark psionic resonance. Earth withered beneath their feet. Light recoiled from their touch. These were not bodies made in the [[Light of It'slémwé]]—they were formed in defiance of it.

Malis then shared a forbidden truth: '''No spirit would ever attain true mortality while the [[Sherok]] still lived.''' The [[Sherok]], original children of the [[First-Flames]], were nigh-immortal, anchoring the cycle of mortality. If the Sebuuk wanted bodies of their own, they would need to destroy '''the [[Sherok]]'''… and then '''the [[First-Flames]]''' themselves.

But the Sebuuk had miscalculated. For all their numbers, they were not infinite. They had underestimated the '''will of Light''' and the endurance of the First-Flames. The final blow came when the [[First-Flames]] '''sealed the [[Blackhole (Lethurèa)|Blackhole]]''', casting the surviving Sebuuk back into [[Gozog'nok|Gozog’nok]].

Then came the curse.<blockquote>''“Never shall you walk in the Light of It'slémwé again.”''</blockquote>The Sebuuk were exiled. Their forms bound in torment. Their hope for mortality, crushed under the weight of divine justice.

The Sebuuk had promised him a world cleansed of the Sherok, and the deaths of the First-Flames. Yet '''not one''' Flame had fallen. The Sherok, though thinned, still thrived. And so, in the choking silence of [[Gozog’nok]], '''Malis turned on his disciples'''.

Later, [[Malismorai]]—a twisted Sherok Warlord who had defected to Malis’s side—led an effort to '''release the Malisik''' from Gozog’nok. Though Malismorai succeeded, he left the Sebuuk behind. Their curse was too potent, their treason too fresh. Only Malis still believed they might someday escape—through brilliance, desperation, or despair.

It was not until the rise of the '''[[Shemèin]]''', flesh-crafters and genetic deceivers, that a solution emerged. By sacrificing entire [[Malisik]] [[Soul-Cluster|Soul-Clusters]] and stitching them into complex mortal matrices, the [[Shemèin]] created '''[[Mortal Vessel|Mortal Vessels]]''' capable of containing Sebuuk spirits—vessels resistant to the curse’s annihilating light. If the Sebuuk was slain the [[Soul-Cluster]] would be released and the [[Malisik]] spirits would be freed.

These vessels were flawed, unstable, and costly to produce. Only the most '''loyal, elite, or strategically valuable Sebuuk''' were granted them. The rest remained in the dark, awaiting release or consuming one another in madness.
