Dawn (organisation)

Dawn was an organisation headed by Kinan Jans which watched over the universes contained within the 10,000 Dawns.

Nature
Dawn was headquartered in an artificial, utopian reality called Spiral, which had a series of portals to all ten thousand Dawns. (PROSE: Sonnenblumen) Graelyn Scythes described them as a "big interuniversal paramilitary group" who "[ran] around doing missions, helping people, trying to stop bad stuff, and fighting other interuniversal organisations".

History
After "some misadventures", Graelyn Scythes and Archimedes Von Ahnerabe, originally native to one universe within the 10,000 Dawns, were recruited by Dawn. One of their missions came about after they learned that the Arbiter of Knives, followed by spies from the Great Assimilation, had decided to enter the Totality to still the Book of Books. The Firmament had bribed the member of their local counterpart species charged with watching out for intruders from other universes to ignore "anything funny" going on with Rachel Edwards, a journalist who was working on a story about the book, which was being held at the New York Public Library. Graelyn and Arch saved her from being abducted by the Arbiter, the Assimilation spies, on the Strid. In the end, thanks to her help as much as their own efforts, they were able to prevent the Book of Books from falling into the wrong hands. (PROSE: Rachel Survived)

During the Invisible Infernos crisis, Coloth and Rich, travellers from a distant universe beyond the Dawns, worked in collaboration with Dawn. (PROSE: Sonnenblumen)
