In the Holozing universe, there is a mystery that permeates everything like an unsettling shadow: the disappearance of the creatures. There is no clear official explanation, and that is precisely what makes the theories circulating within the world itself so compelling.
These are not mere fan speculations, but rather ideas that could perfectly well exist as rumors, leaked files, or truths buried deep within the lore.
One of the most widespread theories posits an ecological collapse triggered by humans. According to this version, the creatures did not vanish overnight; instead, they were slowly driven toward extinction. The expansion of cities, the exploitation of resources, and the manipulation of ecosystems disrupted the natural balance upon which they depended.
Some creatures were so inextricably linked to specific environments that when those environments changed, they simply ceased to be able to exist. What makes this theory interesting is that it does not present a single dramatic event, but rather something far more realistic and stark: a silent disappearance.
Then there is the Containment Project theory. This one is far darker. It speaks of an organized effort—undertaken by governments or corporations—to capture, isolate, or even eliminate the creatures.
The motive? Fear. Power. Control. It is rumored that some creatures possessed abilities deemed too dangerous or unpredictable, and that—rather than learning to coexist with them—humanity chose to eradicate them or confine them within secret facilities.
Whispers of abandoned laboratories, restricted zones, and erased records suggest that this did not merely happen, but was, in fact, a systematic undertaking.
Another fascinating theory is that of dimensional migration. This is where the lore takes a distinct sci-fi turn. According to this concept, the creatures did not vanish; they simply left. Something shifted within the very fabric of the world—perhaps a kind of rift or energetic anomaly—and the creatures migrated to another dimension or plane of existence. Some believe that the elemental islands served as nexus points connecting to these other planes,
and that when those islands became destabilized, the creatures crossed over to the other side. This opens the door to a significant possibility: perhaps they are not extinct, merely inaccessible.
There is also the theory of fusion. This one is more unusual, yet highly intriguing. It posits that the creatures did not vanish, but rather evolved in an unexpected manner: by merging with humans or with technology.
In this scenario, the creatures are still here, though they are no longer recognizable as they once were. They are integrated into systems, into bodies, into artificial intelligence. It is an unsettling concept, for it implies that the boundary between creature and human no longer exists.
And finally, there is the forbidden theory—the one almost no one mentions openly. The theory that the creatures did not disappear... they were deliberately eliminated to suppress a truth that was never meant to see the light of day. Certain fragmented texts suggest that the creatures were not merely living beings,
but something far more ancient—something connected to the very origins of the world itself. If this were true, their existence might have posed a threat not of a physical nature, but of a conceptual one. Something humanity was simply not prepared to comprehend.
Whatever the truth may be, the only certainty is that the disappearance of the creatures was no simple event. It was complex—possibly multifaceted—and most definitely buried beneath layers of lost history. And perhaps most unsettling of all is this: in a world like Holozing, that which is lost rarely vanishes completely. Sometimes, it merely waits.
