Psiomnia

An important planet in the Voxog Imperium. It is the base of operations for all Helmsman, Navigators, Night Soldiers, Seers, and Sorcerers of the Noc'tisoli race.

History
In the 22th century of Voxog, a sect of Noc'tisoli voyagers named the Order of Dual Sight broke away from the Fleet of Holy Witnesses to search for the source of their visions of paradise. For a year and a day the crew ventured into the uncharted, orbiting planet after planet to find the one within their reveries.

At last they found it, a world perfectly hapitable and untouched by any sentient life, illuminated by two suns in the day and two moons in the night. It was the world where visions arrived from the mysterious white galaxy where the sect believed their ancestors ascended after death. It was an ancient belief from before the time of the Voxog, one of the few to survive the Dusk Era. But even though they worshiped Za'ul no less devoutly than their brothers, the Order still held many tenets of the old tribal faith in their hearts. Now the voyagers believed they had found their own holy land, yet they knew that they could not turn their backs on the Imperium who's power and technology had brought them to dwell upon it.

Reluctantly they followed all protocol to have the new world be recognized. They built their settlement within a valley they called The Cradle from the frigate and three corvettes they arrived on. Then they began to study the new flora and fauna to find what would be edible and thus no longer rely on their ships rations. They activated their Beacon to show their location to the rest of the Voxog starships. Finally, they built their temple to Za'ul and prayed for his mercy and understanding, and waited.

Four standard months passed before the light cruiser Pathfinder arrived in the Psiomnic system. Envoys touched down on Psiomnia and soon the Order was once again in contact with the Imperium. The planet was given the name Chi'Guan, or Spirit-Finder. A Procurator was established to govern the new settlement, and discussions began on the future of the planet and what its purpose would be within the Voxog. The Order wanted Psiomnia to become a pilgrimage site while the envoys believed it should be an Agricultural world. For either plan to go through however, more research had to be done on the state of the planet.

Scouts found no signs of any potential beasts of burden that could support a locally-based farm society. The soil, though it could support a great variety of plant life, was fragile and dry. It would only take a few years of unregulated harvests to rend it infertile. Due to these new findings, many of the Noc'tisoli chose to move forward with the Orders plan to the resentment of the envoys and constables.

Soon it was time for the Pathfinder to search for other settlements among the lonely stars. those who were sympathetic to the Order stayed while the rest were glad to leave them behind or were bound to their mission. With the departure of the Pathfinder the Order of Dual Sight resumed their ways of ancestor worship and continued to maintain their settlement.

Psiomnia and the Age of Brotherhood
"It was a dark and sombering time as the Imperium imbrased a new age while we turned our backs on our brothers whose spirits burned bright like the sun."

With the Morthox now allied with the Voxog and on the path to be fully sanctified, the people of Chi'Guan grew worried that the Morthox would not recognize the value of their old teachings and would dilute the planet with their presence. So the new Procurator closed the borders to their paradise not only from the Morthox, but from all other Noc'tisoli. He stated that the Chi'guan needed more time to develop and that day they would open their skies would come when they were ready.

But the day never came, and the announcement of the Sanctification of the Morthox rang throughout the Imperium. By then the Chi’Guan had built temples and grand cities while living in harmony with fragile nature of the planet for three hundred years, letting few outsiders in, and letting fewer stay. Their isolation had made them united and their faith clear, but it fostered their paranoia to an ferrous extreme.

At first, few Morthox and Noc’tisoli cared about Chi’Guan and its isolation from the Voxog. But as time went on and as unity between the species became the norm, the State Administration feared that the Chi’Guan would rebel in their effort to resist it. Their hands were tied, as they could not force them to change their ways for it would go against the Third Revelation. But they could not let them continue as it would foster the lie that only the Noc’tisoli were worthy of the Blessings of Za’ul, a sentiment they knew had to be destroyed for all to prosper.

The pious and spiritual Morthox Samorro Zo’a Shami rose to the challenge to speak for his people.

The discussion between Samorro and Lugal became known as the Chi'Gual Dialog.

Chi'Gual was no more, the world was reborn as Psiomnia: the Land of Great Minds.

Modern History
In the Modern Era of Voxog, Psiomnia stands proud as one most loyal and essential planets in the Imperium. Millions of Helmsman and Navigators come from Psiomnia every year to led the Voxog into victory.

One of the most notable Noc'tisoli Helmsman in recent history, Elio'scuri Nergauan, was born on Psiomnia. He was raised in the traditional Psiomnic life of his telekinesis being trained and tested and took on poetry as his outlet. He became part of the Armada of Shrouded Truth after graduating as Precentor from St. Lugal's Camp. Unfortunately his first mission was to guide the support ship Diplomacy Bridge through the Ultimate Gate to the Milky Way galaxy to join the Motha'katoran Summit. The very same mission that was hijacked by Kali Mahter Mesium in her struggle to end the Voxog.

Elo’scuri was one of the many taken prisoner by Kali. He was used as a Helmsman for the Ivory Wrath along with a previously kidnapped Senxen named Yun.
