Babylon 5 / Exalted
Rather than diving into the empty void of elsewhere, in his exile, Autochthon travels in a non-direction through the pure chaos of the wyld that eventually leads him to Earth. Contact is made just before Autocthon would pull out the alchemical exalts to protect the autochthonians.
Autochthon is fascinated by the Newtonian energy based technology of Earth as Earth is fascinated about the essence based magitech of the Autochthonians. Initial forays into magitech by Earth are largely limited to the use of thaumaturgy in the form of alchemy and enchantment to produce materials with miraculous properties for use in Newtonain technology such as room temperature superconductors. However geomancy is also explored as a means to access more advanced forms of magic, with an altier manse being built in Hawaii to produce Oricalium.
As geomancy is explored further, per-existing desires to terraform and colonize mars combine with the shortage of magical materials needed to produce more advanced magitech combine to produce an ambitious plan. Geromancy could be used to Gaia-form mars, making it both livable and a source of magical jade. Autochthon has nothing but praise and encouragement for the plan, and only to step in a few times to correct mistakes.
Eventually the Vorlon visit and are noticed by Autochthon. Mutual comprehension is difficult, but eventually the Vorlon rationalize Autochthon as the First One Patron of humanity and leave.
Even with an entire new world that is geomantically active, humanity keeps their habit of rationing the miracles available through magitech. Megitech is never used for conveniences that can easily be produced using electronic technology, miracles are used for things that would be impossible or prohibitive using mundane means such as fusion reactors, reducing government corruption, and self replenishing mines.
As Humanity is discussing which of the planets should be modified with Autochthonian geomancy to provide a source of Adamant and other materials, the Centauri arrive. At this point Humanity uses magitech fusion reactors as a source of essence, electricity and plasma for their spacecraft. Megitech is used for gravity manipulation, skill enhancement and hull reinforcement, while everything else is mainly handled by electronics. The only essence based weapons used by humanity are essence twisters and artifact weapons that integrate the ghost eater technique (and these only are produced due to warnings from Autochton, essence based weapons are horribly inefficient).
For Autochthon, he has come to the conclusion that while they were necessary weapons, the Exalts limited Humanity's progress in magitech. The exalts had too easy an access to miricles and did not need to earn them by improving their understanding of magitech.
