Communication across a galaxy spanning empire is one of great effort and at times unconventional means. For most systems they are connected by Ansible to the Core worlds (Which Link to the Home world) but the further you go the more 'muddy' and slow the message gets to the point where a message from an outer colony could take years to get back to the homeworld. Thus steps in the Ordo Visius.

The Ordo Visius uses the arcane arts of Telomancy to communicate across galaxies through the use of a cyrus crystal and the Aluiditerium. They communicate through a series of runes and images to project messages and events.

To communicate across such a distance you must have a point to reference (Same with travel through the Aluiditerium) thus the empire built a beacon. One larger then any other. It was built upon the homeworld and named Pharus and it did it's job well for many megaannus, but soon they needed another and thus Lumen was built (Lumen is the entire planet and is the head quarters of the Ordo Visius)

The Visiuae or Visionaries are those gifted with the ability of far sight. They are taken by the empire at a young age and trained in the ways of Telomancy and also the Runes used for communication.

The symbol of the Ordo Visius is a eagle holding a eye.
