The strife between the Specks of Rilonate and the Specks of Rod carried on for centuries. The conflict was never physically violent,but there was much whining, taunting, heated sneering, upheavals, and so on. This period is known as the Oobla Senchter Hakkt, or: theThree Millennia of Conflict, although it was really more like two and a half. During the Oobla Senchter Hakkt, an incident happened that atonce made all the Specks forget their animosity, and at the same time exacerbated the conflict even more.
