Editing Zayth (section)

== History ==

The history of Zayth can be summed up in one word: <u>'''WAR'''</u>. The people of Zayth have been fighting for so long that they literally forgot whatever reasons their ancestors had for starting the war in the first place. The earliest official documentation of the history of Zayth seemed to paint this wartorn, ash-covered planet as a green and verdant world not unlike [[Terra]] in its infancy. Like most things in the [[Age of Strife]], Zayth was cut off from the main human colonies due to the Warp doing the equivalent of acid reflux (blame the [[Eldar]]'s whole murder-orgy thing).

Due to being cut off and being faced with what would most likely be a resource shortage, the people of Zayth started to grow untrustworthy of one another, and mistrust brought war. It seems the whole "green and verdant" thing didn't last very long after that.

The war grew and continued into lengthy periods of time that the people of Zayth literally forgot what it was they were fighting for. The sheer length of time necessary for an entire planet to forget what a ''global war'' was about would mean that the war on Zayth must be one of the longest continuous conflicts in the entire Galaxy. '''PERIOD.''' The only thing remaining of Zayth's original civilization are the colossal roaming land-ships crawling around the supercontinent, and the people protected from the now-toxic world outside by said giant land ships. Like all things in the Imperium, instead of stopping and asking each other what they originally fought for, [[Fail|these dumbasses continue to fight for no particular reason]] despite well-documented evidence that no one can recall the objective of the war. Occasionally a land-ship falls, and its carcass stripped and looted by the others just like the above-mentioned Cities in "Mortal Engines" (once again proving [[GeeDubs]] is a professional idea thief), and Zayth takes another slow and steady step toward the day it will become a Dead World.
