After encountering the beacon, Herishie had a vision. A vision of where both Equines and Griffins could be emancipated from their biological restrictions. The only way he saw fit to carry out his vision was to start with the Equine race. He amassed a small military force that was augmented just like himself. But as he predicted, the Equines made first contact with the Griffins and it has erupted into a war. Yet, this war serves something greater, this war ultimately founds the Supremacy Unit and gives the Equines quite the controversial advantage.
