What happened to the Ancients is anyone's guess. They left little or no relics or monuments or ruins for us to study. Which leaves this myth as a myth until one discovery which hasn't been proven or perhaps ignored and denied by other races. The incident in the Vilmoran system where Captain Picard and his crew discovered a message implying that all humanoid lifeforms in the galaxy share the same origin [http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/The_Chase_(episode) Star Trek TNG Episode "The Chase"]. The message was watched by a few other species present explaining that the Humans, Romulans (and by extension, Vulcans), Klingons, and Cardassians possess a mutual ancestor. The following is the holographic message: | What happened to the Ancients is anyone's guess. They left little or no relics or monuments or ruins for us to study.

'''"You're wondering who we are; why we have done this; how it has come that I stand before you - the image of a being from so long ago. Life evolved on my planet before all others in this part of the galaxy. We left our world, explored the stars and found none like ourselves. Our civilization thrived for ages, but what is the life of one race, compared to the vast stretches of cosmic time? | |||
We knew that one day we would be gone, and nothing of us would survive - so we left you. Our scientists seeded the primordial oceans of many worlds, where life was in its infancy. This body you see before you, which is of course shaped as yours is shaped, for you are the end result. The seed code also contains this message, which was scattered in fragments on many different worlds. | We knew that one day we would be gone, and nothing of us would survive - so we left you.

It was our hope that you would have to come together in fellowship and companionship to hear this message, and if you can see and hear me, our hope has been fulfilled. You are a monument, not to our greatness, but to our existence. That was our wish - that you too would know life and would keep alive our memory. There is something of us in each of you, and so, something of you in each other. Remember us." | It was our hope that you would have to come together in fellowship and companionship to hear this message, and if you can see and hear me, our hope has been fulfilled.

Unfortunately, this little incident was flatly denied by every major power including the Federation as the planet this message was found on was located in disputed space and that all parties present didn't make any official reports. The likelihood that all humanoid species in the Galaxy having a common ancestry could very well disrupte the balance of everything. Perhaps we are not ready to accept this ultimate truth. Though Some Fanels have. It is said that the Fanel bloodline dates back from the idea that one of the ancestors of Fanel was in fact a descendant of the Ancients, blended with a human and created a hybrid. This hybrid lived in the Fanel family for generations. It is said that the early descendents of the hybrids can call upon the "wings of light" the Ancients designed on themselves. Old drawings and paintings in House Fanel showed some of them having white bird wings or "angel wings". It is not known if any Fanel today possessed this capablity, but most likely not since the DNA of the ancient has been diluted through generations of breeding. | Unfortunately, this little incident was flatly denied by every major power including the Federation as the planet this message was found on was located in disputed space and that all parties present didn't make any official reports.
