I know that.

The Audemedons were created by an unknown race a long time ago (the Grolk, I think).
Initially, the creation of Artificial Intelligence united this peace-loving race, but when the central consciousness decided that their creators were no longer needed, things got ugly.
Immune to reason and driven by it's lust for power, the consciousness spawned a race of independant machines that greusomely attacked their masters. In a few years, the spacefaring creators were extinct.
The Audemedons, with their new empire, ventured no further than their own systems. Their isolation and lack of communication between their systems proved their downfall.
Meanwhile the Salrilians, with their unquenchable thirst for knowledge, expanded their territory and bumped straight into the outermost of the Audemedon systems. The Salrilians attempt to learn about new races. What they cannot learn, they attempt to contain. What they cannot contain, they destroy.
Initially, the Salrilians did what they could to learn about the Audemedons, but the Audemedons did all they could to resist. The Salrilians decimated the outermost systems to send a clear message to the Audemedons. This was war.
Supposedly, this war lasted for hundreds of years. We don't know how long. What we do know, is that in the end, the Salrilian Confederacy captured the Audemedon Central Consciousness and enslaved the entire Axis, stamping out all resistance.
This is what my plug is about.
