That's "D" for Disruption.
It is a commonly held theory among the Awakened that there have in fact been more than one first Awakened city (Atlantis) but that each was ret conned out of existence with only the bits and pieces that slipped through the cracks left to testify to that city's existence.
Now the Awakened community has discovered evidence that one of those cities was successful in slipping more than just bits and pieces past the Exarchs, up to and including survivors sealed away in Time. Now one of those survivors has been freed. On the surface this would seem great, a treasure trove greater than even the first Athenaeums along with a living guide to answer questions and even volunteer information modern mages haven't yet considered.
All is great, all is wonderful only...this Awakened city and its survivor aren't human.
Maybe they're lizard people or descended from Neanderthals but they aren't Homo Sapien Erectus, human.
The question is how do the Orders, or their respective members, react to this discovery?
I think that for the Seers at least the reaction would be over the top violence, not only would this throw their entire belief structure out of the window it would bring into question the very nature of the Exarchs who might not have been human as well.
