Past Events
Creation . The Versi (Ver-s-eye) were like any other evolving race on their Star but grew in advancement quickly due to their hive-like nature where they could telepathically communicate and live. The way their species was created allowed them to easily relate to the natural worlds they lived in. They almost consumed and then changed the world around them wherever they took home.
This of course eventually leads them to naturally terraform their world into an unlivable place as they became sick to themselves. With an almost desperate want to survive the Versi created a process of becoming pure Aether. To use their telepathic nature to rid themselves of physical form and to relinquish their memories and soul into the live stream; they refer to as Star keeping.
Arrival on Etheriys. A group of Versi arrived on Etheriys long before the 3 rd Umbral era. They took home in the parts of the plains and Skatay Range located in the country of Corvos. For hundreds of years, they have lived there through countless calamities they have fought to live, their unique nature allowing them to survive the harsh environments. From this point they became known as apart of the Xia (S-hay) tribe as a third of its people.
Garlean Invasion. As the Garleans made for Eorzea, the Xia tribe disputed options and the Versi, unlike the other thirds, was divided. The Stargazer at the time spoke of the Stars not making the decision for them, so half of the Tribe choose to stay and learn to live with the Garleans, and the other half choose to head towards the Corvos Strait and eventually make their way across the seas to Mericydia in hopes to avoid the coming conflict.
The Xia tribe was later massacred and killed by the Garleans when they refused to be slaves to the empire, but not before the remain Versi were able to create a “Golden City” within the Skatay Range. This place was called the Versiti Sanctum where they sealed their memories and souls within the life stream joining their people within the life stream.
The people that left towards Mericydia retook their name of Versi and found land to live. For a few years they lived there without conflict or disaster and eventually grew.
Goul’s Slaughter. Unfortunately, the Goul (jauw) tribe that lived across the strait where the Versi took home attacked, killing all the Versi except one woman: The Stargazer Miltifan Versi. The slaughtered souls had been taken over time by Miltifan during her enslavement and kept within a crystal necklace that she wore around her neck called a Phylactery . It was here that a Shepard was born from Vrakni Ros and Miltifan Versi who was later named Gabriella Miltifan Versi.
The two Versi lived among the Goul for 20 years between the two before they attempted their escape. As tension rose and racism was shown by the Goul and the primal, they worshipped towards Gabriella the young Shepards father was killed by the primal.
At the age of 16 she ran as the primal came for her next, her mother worked to get her to leave trying to help save her but, in the process, they were caught. Miltifan Versi was drowned in the river, and Gabriella was brought to the Primal where she was fed to the lava. This marked the end of the Versi tribe on Etheriys until current history.
