Mary Carmini joins the Tarsan movement.
The Founder Marcus Johnson commanded his followers to abandon all connection with Earth when they first settled on Harappa. He wanted to cut ties with the Homeworld and establish a new paradigm. He told his followers to not even mention Earth to their children.
It wasn’t until the Arrival, when the Earthers came, that we discovered that Marcus Johnson had not followed his own edicts. The Salusians arrived at the first meeting with the Earthers amid great fanfare bearing an ancient Earth religious text called the Christian Bible.
Marcuc Johnson’s son Andrew had found this book and used it, in part, as a basis for his new cult. The tragic humor in this is that at the time the Greenies ruled Earth and the Christian text was considered hiretical there.
However, when Mary Carmini from Salus went to Earth she found that there was indeed a Christian underground who called themselves the Knights of Tarsus.
The Tarsans had origionally targeted Dorian Thains as the Harappan they most thought open to their message. When he was abducted by the Friends they turned to Mary Carmini who turned out to be very sympathetic to their cause and she joined whole heartedly.
She moved up in their ranks and into a leadership role in an astonishingly quick fashion. We now know that she went to Earth with the Goal of securing sepcial recognition for Salus above all other Harappans. She sasw the Tarsans as an opportunity for Salus to take the lead in Earth/Harappan relations.
