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:
“To care for the quarrels of the past, to identify oneself passionately with a cause that became, politically speaking, a losing cause with the birth of the modern world, is to experience a kind of straining against reality, a rebellious nonconformity that, again, is rare in America, where children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“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)
“It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.”
—Henry James (1843–1916)
