Prior to what some refer to as a dark age, Earth was allegedly struck by fragments of Comet Shoemaker–Levy 9. This cataclysm led to swift ice melting and massive floods, prompting the inhabitants of Atlantis to scatter globally, leaving behind their sophisticated technological relics at what was once the heart of their civilization. Fast forward approximately 12 millennia, the Knights Templar, an enigmatic medieval order with similarities to a historical version of a friendly CIA, reportedly uncovered several of these Atlantean innovations. Following leads from Plato's descriptions of Atlantis, Hugues de Payens, the Count of Champagne, embarked on a quest to retrieve these ancient technologies.
The Templars' search led them beneath the Temple of Solomon, or Temple Mount, where they claimed to find six of the ten reputed Arks of the Covenant. Their excavations over time brought to light additional artifacts like the Spear of Destiny, the Pillar of Enlightenment, the Holy Grail, the Emerald Tablet, and various mystical texts, some of which are believed to be preserved in the Vatican Library today.
Reflecting on this, it becomes evident that much of what's accepted as common knowledge might be inaccurate. Evidence suggests that the Templars, among other ancient voyagers like the Phoenicians, Polynesians, Vikings, and Chinese, reached North America well before Columbus's famed voyage.
In relation to themes in Nikko's Song, many from Atlantis, guided by prophetic insights, or awareness of the comet, built monumental structures around the world to channel spiritual energy. These enlightened beings, understanding the cycle of reincarnation, were prepared for their return in our current era as we shift from a period of darkness into the Aquarian Age, or "Satya Yuga," moving towards higher consciousness. Nikko's Song touches on this fall from grace, and there's anticipation for a new composition celebrating "The Rise."

Additionally, artifacts like the Kensington Runestone found in Minnesota in 1898, along with the Narragansett Runestone and Newport Tower, hint at pre-Columbian Templar activities around the 1360s. Over time, many Templars dispersed globally, later surfacing as groups like the Freemasons in Scotland, the Knights of Christ in Portugal, the Rosicrucians in Germany, and establishing various settlements, including those in Oak Island, Nova Scotia, and across the Americas.
