The Magi's Society

---Scholarly analysis of the Baes historical archives, in regards to "Galactic History". The following abstract, written by Chronicler Anen Norhi, details the summary opinion found within the "Comprehensive History of "Humanity" " volumes 1, “On Humanity’s Origin”.---

The origin of Humanity, being accepted as our genealogical ancestors, is likely the most well hidden mystery within circles of historians. Despite best efforts to decrypt ancient texts contained within our noble archives, almost no hints towards our long lost home exists in a coherent article. Most, if not all, information we know about the time before the Age of Expansion is rumor or speculation. Even within the shared knowledge gracefully given to us by the Lords Magi, almost no hint towards a concrete idea of our origin is found.

Within what few texts give an impression towards any type of origin, or home planet as some choose to search for, only a few words can be found that attempt to even describe the before times. Within our own archives describes a paradise, one that was too beautiful to attempt to remember or record. The simple word written within our archives, exactly once, is “Luu’zhaiku” this word’s meaning is barely understood due to our baseless translations. To what we have managed to translate, of this ancient language, the phrase might describe a paradise home that we came from, or possibly its name. It seems at some point our ancestors spoke a vastly different language than what we currently use, and the direct translation of these old texts becomes more difficult the more dated they become.

What is further intriguing is the refusal for our Lords Magi to assist in these translations. Either due to a desire to not assist in this research, or the simple lack of knowledge on their part. While I do not question their wisdom, the clear refusal to trade information regarding this specific topic causes speculation on the subject and why we are not meant to understand these ancient words.

Our accumulated knowledge of the past is already strained by faulty records and clearly missing sections of infrastructure. Studying such ancient articles causes me to simultaneously speculate on the validity of ancient tales; the old stories that we fled from the surface of the planet to our moon gains more credence as I begin to understand just how much of our database is missing. In fact, our database is so fragmented and corrupted it could be easily assumed that what we maintain could very well be the missing piece of a larger whole. Yet the assumption that we originated from the planet, which maintains our home's orbit, is dissuaded by most of my colleagues. Regardless of where our database may or may not be; our accumulated knowledge hints towards some ancient paradise. One that some guess at being the aforementioned legends of flight from the planet we now orbit. I think contrary to this opinion, that it speaks of a place even before our arrival in this system entirely.
