The Pageant

The Pageant were a group of other dimensional beings. Curious about Earth history and philosophy, they took it out of the main universe around 1794. They made alterations to it and placed it in another dimension to see what would happen. They did not intend to cause harm to the human race, but the experiment got out of hand. Once brought under control, they restored the Earth to its original location in space and time, and promised not to perform any similar experiments. (PROSE: The Man in the Velvet Mask)
