The Sagemaster's Ledger

**The Sagemaster's Ledger** is an account written and maintained by the Sagemaster of the Queen's Legislature.

## Account dated 207, OA19,654

A strange encounter unfolded this night. Fire not unlike the conjurings of Myrddin rained from the sky. Rousing the city, the contraption disappeared over the mountain border, out of sight. Rumours travelled like the wind of a message from Annwn. A message of death and doom.

Brave soldiers scoured the border for the fiery remains, but none unveiled themselves. Not until the stranger arrived, garbed in other-wordly attire, and hauling with them a collection of outlandish objects. They claimed to be beyond the heavens. A messenger from the Gods.

The exalted inhabitants of Annwn are rare in their portents, however this stranger is too anomalous to deny. Words like the enigmas of Camelot, and articles that perplex the mind. They demonstrate an aversion to our customs, but are in equal measure versed in our history.

The Queen will require prior confirmation of the visitor’s credibility, but for now this is the start of a new chapter in Avalonian life. The disciple of our saviours has arrived.

Vivienne Granger

**Vivienne Granger** was a Leonian soldier in the E'blanche Military Force. She vanished on a mission to the Incubus.

## Biography

### Early Life

Granger grew up in the northern hemisphere of E'blanche in a District house in Terrain de glace. She lived there with family for near twenty years. She played virtual simulation games and earned Galactacoins in order to afford a living.

### Military service

At some point she joined the E'blanche Military Force as a way to escape her isolation.

### Mission to the Incubus

Around OA19,652, Granger volunteered to join a mission investigating the Incubus, a mysterious celestial object that was supposedly responsible for the Disappearing. She joined on the hope of making a contribution to her chapter.

The operation was organised by General Rafe Newman and Granger was joined by Captain Syd Lawrence, Nathan Hamilton, Daniel Slade and Joseph Simmons on the Soldat Intergalactique. The journey took them over a year, as they travelled from the Canol system to the Seven Suns system through the Regal Trident. A security operative attempted to dissuade them from entering the system in the belief that their mission would end in failure, but they continued regardless.

During the journey, Granger became acquainted with Captain Lawrence, especially when he played her a piece of music, which had been composed by his late wife, who was a victim of the Disappearing. After hearing her Captain's reason for joining the mission, Granger felt that her decision to join was based on a less-convincing reason.

After the ship slingshotted Greenworld in orbit around Calpurnia, they approached the Incubus. Granger prepared weaponry including an SC electromagnetic pulse rifle for any possible combat. Upon seeing the Incubus with her own eyes, Granger felt as though she was being attracted to it by an unknown and intangible force, and her crewmates agreed. As Lawrence attempted to land their craft on the object's surface, the ship actually passed through it, and her body dismembered along with the rest.

The Great Human Migration

**The Great Human Migration** was a major event in Oes Ailenedigaeth in which all Chapters of Humanity formed a mass exodus from Earth and dispersed to new civilisations across the Milky-Way Galaxy. The entire relocation lasted between OA289 and OA3,129.

In OA1,897, a transport containing a percentage of the Virgo Chapter population tragically crashlands on Alpha One. Citizens trapped inside cryogenic hibernation were killed. The event was memorialised as the Day of the Fallen Angel.

Upon the completion of habitation by the Aquila Chapter in the Seven Suns system, the Migration was officially ended IN OA3,129.

Kalet Steale

Professor **Kalet Steale** is a Leonis Chapter astrophysical scientist. He is known for being a friend of the Calan race - a Calanite.

## History

### E'blanche Military Force

Steale participated as a soldier in the Third Mining War. During this time, he lost his brother. Following the intervention of the Calan, he turned away from the military to start a life of scientific research.

At some point, he became acquainted with Captain Syd Lawrence. When Syd was a child, they used to travel up the mountains on E'blanche to discuss the universe.

### Satellite malfunction

In the days after Dominic Drindlock's appointment as Administrator of E'blanche, Steale invited Sir Elis Newman to his apartment in Napoleon Heights in North Crin. They discussed the growing discontent in politics and Newman was also interested in the Professor's association with the Calan, including the story of the demise of the Third Mining War. The Professor also consoled his friend on the disappearance of Captain Syd Lawrence and the powerlessness of his brother, General Rafe Newman in supporting them. Their evening was interrupted by Harissa Silva contacting him on his communicator from the Crin Astronomy Base. She required his assistance as Drindlock had arrived unannounced under the guise of performing an inspection. Angered, Steale apologised to the Mayor of Crin and departed for the base.

Kalet borrowed a Snow automobile from the station in North Crin, run by security guard, Logan. Immediately after arriving at the Base, he saw his other satellite, U2-Alpha, falling out of orbit on the display screens. Head engineer, Lisa informed that it was experiencing a similar malfunction to U2-Fly. Asking them to follow its trajectory, Kalet descened to the lower laboratories to meet the new Administrator. Drindlock was accompanied by his android, Constant, much to the Professor's dismay. Due to the latest problems suffered by the research facility, Drindlock had decided, with his newfound authority, to defund the Base from the E'blanche Treasury if unresolved within a week. Kalet believed this to be far too short a length of time and hypothesised that the Administrator had an alterior motive involved. Drindlock and his companion departed via the underground tunnels back to Crin.

Later, Kalet accepted a communication from Sylfaenydd by Llywydd Cyson Tywysydd. From information gathered by the Anianwyr of Pedairastud, Tywysydd notified the Professor of Kingdom's involvement in destabilising the U2-Fly satellite, but was unable to decipher the purpose. In addition, the Llywydd explained their reasoning behind the Gathering, a summit to be held at Castell. The intention was to rekindle the trust of Humanity in Calan and they wanted the Professor involved in order to help boost Calan appeal, as an invitation was forthcoming from the United Systems Senate. Steale was uncertain about his possible success.
