    When the humans first landed, it was the Sanders who guided them to a giant lake, named by the humans as Earth-2 (now known as the Lake of Earth), the size of planet Earth, helping them find a place to settle. However, their assistance stopped there—they did not aid in rebuilding human society but instead observed from afar. But for a good reason, for the humans to rely on themselves and build their own species on this new planet for them, ensuring humanity could stand on its own.

    The Sanders remain one of the most respected species in Ortruna, and their bond with humans is deeper than any other species’ connection.
