Termina

***Warning!***

This section contains ***SPOILERS*** for the adventure **The End of Ankelion**!Tread carefully if you do not wish to be spoiled!
**Termina** is a strange anomaly of nature and harmony that has traits of both a robot army led by a single AI, and a hivemind species. Termina’s ultimate goal is “Instrumentality”, an unification of all the souls within the universe in a way that complements them and erases any form of individuality. It goes out to complete this goal with brute force, attacking everything in its path and consuming every planet, city, colony and creature it finds.

Termina has an arsenal of powerful machines at its disposal, which it calls from other, distant galaxies and then complements with its own essence, the liquidized soul energy “LCL”. It also has the Ducky empire’s former Duckylions available for its use, which it has upgraded into the as-dangerous-as-itself Termilions, a race of powerful warriors with incredible power.

Termina rose into prominence during the event known today as **"Second Impact"**, a cataclysmic event in the Ankkis system that would then wipe out the rest of the Ducky Empire as well, leaving very little survivors behind to tell the tale. This also garnered the attention of the Draconian Empire, as one of their ships, ISS Red-Eye, happened to be on orbit of the planet Ankkis and the city of Ankio-3 when the Impact happened. Since then, the Imperials have become determined to defeat Termina while also rescuing the whatever souls it has trapped within itself. They've requested the help of the Melorsia Alliance and few other empires for this crisis, but it is left to be seen if they will receive that aid.

While Termina seems like it is capable of independent thoughts, the presence of the Time Titan Aleph suggests that it is merely his puppet. However, there are also those schools of thought that believe that Aleph and Termina are in fact collaborating, and are bound together by metaphysical chains akin to that of a mortal and a Persona. There is no clear conclusion as for which theory is correct, but it could very well be that both theories are right, and Aleph is silently controlling Termina while making a contract with them.

Termina's forces appear in this adventure led by Termina-SEEKER, who is interested in the Time Crystal fragment hidden within the Gorochi research facility owned by Coredredium Alliance. Their appearance is soon followed by MAGI special units, led by Urgus who is also after the Time Crystal piece located there. After the captain defeats both the SEEKER and Urgus, Termina's forces continue to attack the other forces until they presumably flee as the self-destruct mechanism of the research base is activated.

### Galaxy at War

The Draconians' war against Termina is showcased here as part of the simulation meant to persuade the Melorsian inspector general to not think of the Draconians as enemies. Duckylion unit A1 is shown to be on the Empire's side, fighting against one of the larger Termina units called PARAGON.
