History
Origin
Before the current universe, the Emotional Spectrum was shown to reside in the cosmos prior to the main one. It was harnessed by a group of beings in this era known as the Lightsmiths that utilized the essence of existence. With it, they fashioned staves that focused its power and elevated interstellar civilization and made wonders such as entire cities composed of light. (Green Lantern: The Lost Army v1 #3)
As time went on, the reservoir of the Emotional Spectrum continued to deplete leading to the rise of Light Pirates that attacked the Convertors and other light users in order to siphon their power. This period saw the light becoming a scarce resource leading to an event known as the Dimming whereby the various light wielders began to battle one another over its power. As such, the War of the Dwindling Light emerged among the Lightsmiths whilst their universe was slowly dying. (Green Lantern: The Lost Army v1 #3)
Billions of years ago, the Guardians of the Universe decided to avoid becoming affected by the Emotional Spectrum created by sentient life. As a result, they created the Book of Oa to shield themselves from its influence as they sought to cleanse themselves of emotions. This led to a schism amongst their kind with the women not believing this course of action and decided to abandon Oa as a result leading to the formation of the Zamarons. (Green Lantern v4 #19)
