History
In 1985, a child named Geoff McHenry was taken by his "uncle", Buck McHenry, to be trained to become the next Geomancer. He would become one of the greatest and most influential Geomancers of all time, especially in regard to his involvement in the Unity Conflict in the Lost Land.
During the Unity conflict, it was Geoff who sent the newborn son of Kris Hathaway (see Harbingers) into the future, where he would someday become Magnus, Robot Fighter.
He was lost for a time, during which he was temporarily replaced by his uncle, Clay McHenry. Eventually, he returned, and resumed his role once more.
In the future, he would someday train his "niece", Lucinda Mendez, to take on his role as the Earth's Geomancer.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“I believe that in the history of art and of thought there has always been at every living moment of culture a “will to renewal.” This is not the prerogative of the last decade only. All history is nothing but a succession of “crises”Mof rupture, repudiation and resistance.... When there is no “crisis,” there is stagnation, petrification and death. All thought, all art is aggressive.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
“The custard is setting; meanwhile
I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“In history the great moment is, when the savage is just ceasing to be a savage, with all his hairy Pelasgic strength directed on his opening sense of beauty;—and you have Pericles and Phidias,—and not yet passed over into the Corinthian civility. Everything good in nature and in the world is in that moment of transition, when the swarthy juices still flow plentifully from nature, but their astrigency or acridity is got out by ethics and humanity.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
