The Sphere's resistance was a coalition of alien species that opposed the Harvesters. As of the War of 2016, the Sphere elected the human race to lead the resistance.
History[]
Formation[]
According to the Sphere, the Harvesters and their Queens destroyed countless alien civilizations by harvesting their planet's molten core and rendering the planet uninhabitable. The species in which the Sphere was part of managed to hold them off for some time, but was ultimately defeated and leaving the Sphere the sole survivor of its race. Forced to retreat, the Sphere searched and united the remnants of the annihilated civilizations into one strong resistance movement, and leading them in an unending war against the Harvesters.
War of 2016[]
In July 2016, the Sphere intercepted a Harvester distress signal which revealed their defeat on Earth. Seeing humanity's potential, the Sphere attempted to save them from the impending alien retaliation and evacuated them to the resistance's planet. The Sphere traveled to Earth to warn of the attack but was shot down by the humans, who mistook it for an alien threat.
The Sphere was salvaged by the Earth Space Defense just as the Harvesters led by their Queen attacked Earth. Although overwhelmed by the aliens, humanity managed to defeat the invaders by killing the Queen. The Sphere was humbled by humanity's actions and, acknowledging them becoming the first alien-attacked world to successfully kill a Harvester Queen, asked them to lead the resistance.
