True breakthrough came when mortals discovered the existence of '''adjacent planes of existence'''—the [[Teleka Plane]], [[Astral Plane (Galaxa)]], and [[Ethereal Plane]].

Using these planes, mortals found ways to **bypass** the Speed of Light Limit without violating the Divine Constants:

The First Imperial Federation, under Valdian guidance, experienced a golden age that shaped much of Galaxa’s modern political and cultural landscape—until its collapse during the [[Imperial Civil War (Valdian)]].
