OK, I am responding to Firedog. According to the newly published Animal Jam Insiders' Guide, the Phantoms invaded through dark portals around the time that the animals had begun to separate and hide their heartstones- magic stones given them by Mira and Zios. After the Phantoms almost destroyed Jamaa and imprisoned many species, Mira and Zios made the Alphas, and there was a great battle. The last of the retreating Phantoms caught up with Zios and dragged him with them into a closing portal. Mira leaped or flew or whatever into another portal when she saw this, following Zios and the Phantoms. Now, the Guide says nothing about the creation of the Phantoms, just that they came through the portals when Jamaa friendship was lost. MY personal theory is that the Phantoms had been there all along, but were previously held back by the strong friendship between the animals of Jamaa. Once feelings of hate and disharmony prevailed, the Phantoms were able to come to Jamaa through their dark portals.
