Sanctel crystals

Cystalized elements inside the Sanctel

The element of a planet, also referred to as a planet's "hidden lives and hidden emotions", is the collection of the evolutionary memories and emotions of all the life that has ever lived on a specific world, which exists as a wave beyond space and time.[1]

Elements manifest in the universe as Wave-motion Energy,[1] which is used to power many devices, most notably the Wave-motion Engine, by most known human species.[2] By using a Wave-motion Energy control device such as the Cosmo Reverse System, an element can be used to restore[1] or recreate[3] life from its memory.[1]

Elements can be turned into solid crystals and stored, as was done by the Iscandarians in the Sanctel.[3]

In the Iscandarian language of flowers hidden lives and hidden emotions are rapresented by the Blue Crystal flower, which is seemingly capable of absorbing Wave-motion Energy.[1][4]
