Humanity's Refuge On Orbos
Phantom Epoch

Summary

Across later ages, Orbos is remembered as humanity's ancestral home and one of the galaxy's great refuge worlds. *1 *2

Its later history reinforces that memory. Orbos grows into a major center of human life, power, and continuity, to the point that even inherited guidance treats it as the original human world rather than a place of refuge. *3 *2

SpoilerOrbos-13mission

Late Time Chamber revelations overturn that public memory. Luminari explorers encountered humans on a homeworld dying beneath an unstable sun, uncovered an ancient gate network there, and dragged survivors through to the world they would come to call Orbos. Stranded with the people they had saved, they helped establish the foothold from which humanity endured. *2 *4

Seen together, the public memory and the later revelation explain why Orbos holds such a central place in human history: later generations inherit it as an ancestral home, while the hidden older truth is that it became humanity's refuge at the edge of extinction. *3 *2 *4
