Despite the vast biological and aesthetic differences between species, every known being perceives them as ''immensely beautiful''.

This phenomenon has led scholars to theorize that the Sherok's beauty is '''not merely physical but metaphysical''', existing beyond the limitations of form and perception. | ||

The [[High | The [[High Valorîin]], designed by the [[First-Flames]] and '''ten of the most powerful Sherok''', were meant to be the galaxy's ultimate warriors. However, the tyrannical rule of the [[First-Flames]] and [[High Sherok]] led to their uprising, sparking the '''[[Elder Valorîin Rebellion]]'''.
