The First Ones are a mysterious group of beings from the past. Adora appears to be the only living member that still remains. The First Ones were an alien race of intergalactic explorers native to Eternia. They fought a protracted war with Horde Prime in which he claimed victory, though little is known about the conflict or their current condition.
The First Ones forged the Sword of Protection in such a way that it only respond to one of their own kind. It was wielded by several heroines who took on the guise of She-Ra. For a long time, Mara was the final person to wield the sword. It's powers became too much for her, and she somehow closed off the planet Etheria from the rest of the universe. The First Ones' ability to create portals to other worlds was also destroyed. Despite of this, almost a thousand years later, Adora somehow arrived on Etheria by way of another portal. She was found by the evil Hordak, who had her raised as a member of The Horde.
Although none of the First Ones remained on Etheria at this time, many First Ones artifacts and technology were still to be found. One of the most knowlegable was the hologram known as Light Hope , who resided in the Crystal Castle that remained hidden in the Whispering Woods. Light Hope was unable to stop the Horde from turning Adora into a soldier for their war, but decided to watch and waited for the day she could united Adora with the Sword of Protection.
