After three full days of travel, [[Eva Straton]] located a small reasonably isolated area in the [[Harvis System]] to reflect and meditate.  The system consisted of a couple of small uninhabited planets and moons. However, it was also home to an [[Interdimensional Rift]] and Eva's timing couldn't have been worse.

Already feeling the effects of a hormonal and chemical imbalance caused by her pregnancy and exasperated by her recent lack of telepathic contact, Eva  was already, unknowingly hallucinating.

To further compound this situation, the planet [[Iradon]] which is on a 1,000 year cycle of transgressing between two distinctly different universes, chose that exact moment to reappear into our universe.

The planet appeared directly in the path of Straton's shuttlecraft accompanied by strong bursts of gravimetric and quantum energies unlike any encountered in this universe before.


Unable to evade the sudden appearance of the planet, Eva's shuttle plunged into the atmosphere, but not before managing a distress call. The shuttle was affected by a strange quantum field which caused almost every system on the small ship to fail. As a result, only Eva's piloting skills managed to get the shuttle down without killing her. She was injured in the crash, however, and suffered a serious head injury which gave her amnesia.

The local inhabitants of the planet, [[Iradonian]]s found the wreckage and recovered Eva. They treated her physical injuries, but could not help her amnesia.

Being a strong telepath, Eva began to pick up on the thoughts of the locals that had rescued her and began to believe herself to be the Anointed of Alazara. Still under the hallucinatory effects of the chemical imbalance, and having no past memories to draw upon, Eva assumed the role of the Anointed and began to gather to her an army of Iradonians to overthrown the  local Duke as the leader of the planet. The army consisted of the loyal followers of the High Priestess [[Cereus]] who was the leader of the rebellion against the mysterious figure known only as the Duke. Under the guise of the Anointed, Eva began to use her telepathic powers against those that opposed her, even as she began to exhibit delusions of god-like proportions.

The Presence of Straton was foretold as a prophesy and so it was not a difficult leap of faith for the followers of [[Alazara]] to promote her as the Anointed. Since the male nobles, who were their enemies possessed limited telepathic powers, the appearance of a female  telepath was a significant step in solidifying the power base of the Rebellion which was female leadership oriented.
