History
On July 15, 1999, following the "Week of Nightmares", the red star known as Telos or Mirzaba, appeared in the bowl of the Big Dipper. There were theories that this star had heralded the destruction of Pompeii in 79 CE. The appearance of this star, with the recently discovered avatar storm, convinced the masters that remained on Earth to call for a convocation to decide the fate of mage and those affliated with them. The word was sent out quickly far and wide. Lessons from the past were learned so messages were encrypted and hidden to keep the Technocratic snoops off the trail. It was scheduled for April 23,2000, Easter weekend.
Halloween Weekend 1999 the masters were finally able to meet, in secret, to discuss the sudden changes. It was decided that they would create a new horizon realm. Over the weekend they opened the anchorhead and secured a realm they called Unity.
Over the next three months they gave Unity the nine spheres. They gave it cycles of light, dark, and weather that matched Earth. They gave it space, directions, and boarders. They have it flora and fauna. They gave it weight, gravity, and a wellspring which they continued to feed. It was not a perfect earth replica, but close.
At the Grand Convocation in February 2000, they presented their case. That the appearance of the Avatar Storm and Telos were the heralds of the end of Earth. Unity was presented to the gathering. Some touted it as the Ascension they has always talked about. Some just claimed it was time they save themselves for a change. Others sold it as a new start.
The only problem, Unity was limited in the number of people it could support. The Wellspring could only support a limited number of mages, and thus, only a limited number of custodes. To be precise 100 mages, and 400 custodes.
Systems were set up to vet and authorize those mage and their custodes that wanted to leave. No mage could go alone,and no custos could either. At least in pairs, though usually in groups of five. Then on Easter weekend, at nine large nodes across the planet, each lead by one of the masters the rituals were done to take the each group into Unity.
What story was told to family and friends that were left behind on Earth, were as varied as the imagination.
