Molite

The Molites are an alien species native to Sector 2814. Their world C-873, a.k.a. Mol is located in the Mordilam-27 System.

History
The Green Latern Corps was notifed that the planet Mol was in danger, by a Ungaran exploratory team that detected that the sun was approaching the stage of a supernova.

To rescue the Molite civilization. John Stewart dispatched Green Lanterns, Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz to aid the Ungaran evcauaton efforts. When the two Lanterns arrived at the system only the star was about to approach total stellar annihilation in 18 minutes.

Unfortunately even after speaking to Podfather Vob, the leader of the Molites, the entore species refused to abandon their world, preferring to perish alongside it. The Green Lanterns and Ungaran rescuers were forced to weather the stellar storms and minimize the casulties until they could convince the Molites to evacuate.

Culture
The Molites were a deeply spiritual people, believing that they owed an enromous debt to their world. They owe it for providing shelther, water, algae, and metals. Their world is both their god and their father. Their gratitude to their world was so great that the entire species would prefer to die rather than abandon it. They praise a figure known as Akedin of the Burning Vein in tmes of religious passion.
