HISTORY
As told by Roval the First, Highlord of Qward, Turi was originally a moon orbiting Maltus, homeworld of the Guardians of the Universe. Ages ago, the Maltusians felt the unclean energies, the foul aura and moved the moon to the edge of their planetary system. However, the Maltusians failed to realize that the source of the energy was not the moon itself, but something shielded deep beneath its surface.

When Roval claimed control of Qward he sought a weapon found in the Forbidden Scrolls.[1] Utilizing an ancient Qwa-Portal anchored to Qward's nephelithospheric crustplates, Roval transported his contingent to the exiled moon.[2] To reach their goal, the Qwardians were forced to battle through a pack of Devourers, bio-engineered to prevent further passage. The Qwardians were successful in their quest, unleashing the Void Hound. [3]
