When they saw the boldness of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they marveled and took note that these men had been with Jesus. And seeing the man who had been healed standing there with them, they had nothing to say in response. So they ordered them to leave the Sanhedrin and then conferred together.
โWhat shall we do with these men?โ they asked. โIt is clear to everyone living in Jerusalem that a remarkable miracle has occurred through them, and we cannot deny it. But to keep this message from spreading any further among the people, we must warn them not to speak to anyone in this name.โ
Then they called them in again and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. But Peter and John replied, โJudge for yourselves whether it is right in Godโs sight to listen to you rather than God. For we cannot stop speaking about what we have seen and heard.โ
After further threats they let them go. They could not find a way to punish them, because all the people were glorifying God for what had happened. For the man who was miraculously healed was over forty years old.
According to early church tradition, Peter requested to be crucified upside down, feeling unworthy to die in the same manner as his Lord.
O child of the devil and enemy of all righteousness, you are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery! Will you never stop perverting the straight ways of the Lord? Now look, the hand of the Lord is against you, and for a time you will be blind and unable to see the light of the sun.โ Immediately mist and darkness came over him, and he groped about, seeking someone to lead him by the hand.
Watch out, then, that what was spoken by the prophets does not happen to you:
'Look, you scoffers, wonder and perish! For I am doing a work in your days that you would never believe, even if someone told you.'

Reality is not fixed, but rather a set of agreed upon assumptions enforced by the collective will of humanity, the Sleepers. Mages are those people who recognize that reality is not static, and realize that through the application of their will, usually channeled through rituals or other similar "mystical" or "scientific" practices, reality can be changed.
The central theme of Mage is the search for Ascension, not only for the individual but for all of mankind. What Ascension is, and how it is achieved is purposely left undefined.
