The Safirian Exodus of Qinamu, 1663, was the orchestrated mass emigration of Shirerithian safirs and allies. Spearheaded by the then Regent and former kaiseress, Lady Kessei, it consisted of Safirian spaceships picking up Safirian citizens and allies during the second week of Qinamu. The motivation for this emigration has been variously attributed to the hostility of human denizens and citizens towards the safir, the perceived erosion of civic rights, and dissatisfaction with the economy in Shireroth.

Notable participants in the Safirian Exodus:

  • Lady Kessei, former kaiseress (1608), regent (1663)
  • Rei Miłárna, former kaiseress (1575—1579), member of the Landsraad
  • Daniel Ashura, former kaiser (1624–1626), ambassador to Hoenn
  • Heath Belledin, a human, professor of law, imperial inquisitor (1639–1663)
  • Altea Lomax, a human, former steward.
  • Âmi Lomax, a human, famous baseball pitcher, considered the best in Shireroth


The news was met with undisguised jubilation amongst the support base of the National-Humanist movement, as the Safir had - of their own volition - now shared in the fate of the revenants and Deep Singers.
