Titan (Third Dynasty) pt.30

In his new job, Caleb was given the authority to comment on important decisions and plans. He made sure that Titan remained strong for the next five years. On his twentieth birthday (the age of man), Caleb bid farewell to Titan and set off to reclaim Sang Vengeance. He became their new leader in 2670.
It was after his departure that word spread about the marble tomb; better known as the Rose Tomb. It was this that began the Solar War of 2672. Titan fought to protect its diverse culture from literally being dug up. Many from Phobos and the other two of the triplets fought because they thought Titan wanted to find and keep the treasure for themselves. Many died until Titan cut off all contact with the other planets. The Rose Tomb fell into legend. Many children in Titan would forever know the story but it would remain a myth for a long time yet.
