- - Written in the Hyperion Historical Scrolls, Chapter 11: Caduta di Luna.
17.5 billion years prior to the events of Spore, the First Hyperion Empire were experiencing a larger amount of Natural Hazards caused by the planets moon Jourion - III, which was slowly approaching the planet. To stall the destruction, the Empire created special Gravity Tethers, which helped for a total 0.5 billion years. yet on the 15th day of Crescendo month, 17 billion years prior to the events of Spore, the operation of the tethers was reversed by a crazed miner. The moon was being atracted to the planet at a ver fast rate. Upon seeing this the Council of Ten ordered a total planet evacuation. Yet, the order came in too late and Jourion - III crashed into the planets surface, causing it to drift of orbit and sent it into the darkness of space.

Once of the First Empire's Spaceships was able to escape with people on board and crashed on planet Hyperia. Due to the dryer and less dense atmosphere the remainers of the First Empire dies on the planet, leaving only a spaceship filled with scrolls which was later found by the Second Hyperion Empire. In a coincidentall turn of events an asteroid holding the last cell of life from Cestus - III crashed into Hyperia starting the rise of the new Second Hyperion Empire.
