Two pearls and the Akasha Edit

The Golden Pearl and the Black Pearl were two facets of the Akasha, the communal mind of the Naga race. All that was pure, and all that was impure. Akasha had hatched from the Golden one and embraced the human race. From the Black Pearl would be hatched the Dark Naga, Akasha's brother, and his desire would be the eradication of all life that was not Naga. [1]

Sent away Edit

The Naga were preparing for the second Great Sleep in 1134. The Qatol sent away both pearls. The Golden one could interfere with the rituals that would guard the Naga sleep in the Shinomen Mori, and the Black was sent away because he feared the being inside. [1]

Birth Edit

The Dark Naga

In 1170 the Dragon of Thunder was cast down from Tengoku. She came to the seas of Ningen-do and its arrival was answered, a Black Pearl cracked open. [1] The Dark Naga appeared from it. [citation needed] Several of the weak-willed ningyo became their servant, forced through his own will. [1]

Kali-Ma Edit

The Dark Naga remained hidden deep beneath the sea. In the Emerald Empire the presence of Kali-Ma dulled his ability to exert its full influence. In 1173 her death unleashed to his complete extent his abilities. [1]

Extending his influence Edit

The Dark Naga architect cast his mind into the Akasha, the Naga communal mind, and connected him to the vast Shinomen Mori in its creatures. The Naar Teban, the Naga Abominations twisted by the Ashalan curse placed upon the Naga who crossed to the Burning Sands were reached by him. He also reached the abominations of the Ivory Kingdoms which had been under the will of Kali-Ma, and now they were simply shifted to obey the Dark Naga's will. It had mastered all forms of serpent life, including the great orochi. [1]

One mind Edit

All who had been cast out from the Akasha, all returned to the Akasha by its power. The abominations joined him of their own free will, because the Dark Naga could restore their ability to feel the one mind. [1]

War of Serpents Edit

The Dark Naga rallied an army to unleash the War of Serpents against the human race. [2]

Governor murdered Edit

In 1198 Dark Naga warriors murdered the governor of the Second City, Ikoma Katsuru. [3]

Kidnapping Naga related Rokugani Edit

Every person within Rokugan who had a direct connection with the Naga had been kidnapped and moved to the Pearl Bed were the Dark Naga dwelled. Magic Pearl allowed them to breath behind water, and Mirumoto Mareshi, Mara, and Hida Fubatsu arrived, chained by the Dark Naga's will. Mara was struck when she retorted and died. [1]

Exposed Edit
