Half-Life: The Lore Behind Xen (Outdated)

Ойындар

The vast borderworld of Xen is the hub and gateway to infinite locations through the multiverse. While a hub for creatures and sentient forces to pass through, Xen is also home to various flora and fauna that have created a home for themselves here. With every civilisation, there is a ruler, and Xen is so exception.
Who rules Xen, how important is this borderworld to the protection of the multiverse and why is this region to important to the G-Man and his employers. In this lore episode, I explored all of the information I could find about Xen in Half-Life.

    My theory on Xen, Xen used to be an ocean planet with only plant life, and the trees that hurt you, but a gianormous asteroid struck into the planet causing it to break into small pieces, and those pieces started drifting away, however, when the Nihilath and his army discovered the particles, they began taking research of it, and managed to discover all the drifting pieces before they escaped the solar system, they then planted in a device in the middle of Xen and even managed to build up an atmosphere with their terraforming tools, and once they were done with fixing up the planet, they abducted creatures of different planets and put them on Xen, but, the Vortigaunts we're related to the Alien Grunts and Nihilath, since they both have 3 arms, and since in their original planet, the Vortigaunts were classified as peasents, some Vortigaunt workers we're sent to the planet to work there, thus giving the name ''Alien Slave'' and thats my theory, it could be correct or false.

    The Xen creatures have a fifth limb, not a third. It is a third arm though. They all have at least 2 legs.

    How is the gravity even there? The mass is too small from each little piece of land, also it has an objective up and down (you can fall off it), it's not very well thought out from a physics perspective. A better design would be to have these small things floating out there, but have them made of super dense matter, to have a stronger gravitational pull, in order to hold the water and creatures to it, and for there to be no up or down, but you can walk all around it in any direction, because the force of gravity is from the centre.

    It probably has a core heavy enough to ensure gravity, but not heavy enough to attract the rock isles. Like uh, the rings of Saturn. It's not impossible.
