Ancients

The Ancients in Jason 's time live secretly beneath the sea of Terran 8 in communities very much like Paragangian ShipCommunities and Space stations. They use more or less the same technology . I have not given a name yet to the place they live, or determined if they are all together or in seperate smaller domes. D"zeron Dreamkeepers can travel to where they are. They refer to it as "the Plane of Authority"
the Idea for them to live in domes beneath the sea was insistantly suggested..I might say demanded--by my Daughter Angie. She insisted there had to be a place where people lived under a dome under the ocean as in the movie Atlantis. This worked well for the Ancients at the time she suggested it. They do not ever [cannot] swim through the ocean to get to the surface though they can and do swim.They Dream Travel to get to the surface. 
Ancient history of Terran 8
Long ago, these people and Paragangians were one race, separated into two tribes, the ocean people and the mountain people. They shared in developing the technology which later became reverse Drive and material generators. This technology can transform matter to energy and then back to matter, The Ancients moved into domes under the sea as the Proto-Paragangian people moved into the mountains and then into space. The Proto-Paragnagian people exparimented with the technology in a reckless way and destroyed most of the surface land, leaving the Ancients Isolated under the oceans. The island of KaarTaal was protected from destruction by a prophet Named Shae who tried to prevent the destruction, warning of the dangers of the technology. He was incinerated in the destruction and became dreambound. The remaining Proto-Paragangians took refuge in space, wandering off to find a new planet suitable for habitation.
Shortly thereafter, Zeneth brought the colony of D'zeron [including animals and people brought from earth thousands of years in the future--from the time of Carston's father who was part of this founding colony] to Terran 8 . The Anceints helped them integrate into the planet's recovering ecology, and also created, using local and imported genetic material, spies to watch them: small winged creatures which the D'zeron people called Dragon Ferrets .
like Re, the ANceints did not aprove of the technological or Genetic manipulation done by Sen'tran's people or Kai'zen's people. they beleived in keeping technology in tune with the planit and were very careful in all their creation to abide by this principle, making it more like a guided evolution than a genetic manipulation.
