As the [[Sixth Doctor]] and [[Gustave Lytton]] mutually understood, the [[Cybermen]] adopted [[Telos]] as their new [[home planet]] following the [[destruction of Mondas|destruction]] of the original [[Cyber-planet]], [[Mondas]], ([[TV]]: {{cs|Attack of the Cybermen (TV story)}}) during an [[1986 Cyberman invasion of Earth|ill-fated attack]] on [[Earth]] by the [[Mondasian Cybermen]] in [[1986]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Tenth Planet (TV story)}}) The Cybermen were led by the [[CyberTelosian Controller|Cyber-Controller]], whom the Doctor believed to have been [[Expedition to Telos|destroyed]].

[[ArcHivist]] [[Hegelia]] hypothesised that, following the incident, a of [[CyberNomad]]s came across Telos, reopened the Telosian tombs and helped to forge the new race of Cybermen, the [[Neomorph]]s, which proliferated during the [[26th century]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Killing Ground (novel)|Killing Ground]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Early Cybermen (audio story)|The Early Cybermen]]'') During their attempt to [[Cyber-invasion (Earthshock)|destroy]] Earth in [[2526]], the Neomorph [[Cyber-Leader (Earthshock)|Cyber-Leader]] consulted the [[history computer|records]] of [[the Doctor]]. Among other incidents, he recalled the [[Second Doctor]] confining the Cybermen to their tombs on Telos. The 2526 was intended to destroy an [[interstellar conference]] held on Earth in which the [[head of state|head]]s of many powerful [[planet]]s would sign a [[pact]] uniting their [[military]] forces in a [[Cyber-War (Earthshock)|war]] against the Cyber-race, a war which both the [[Fifth Doctor]] and the Cybermen themselves understood they could not win. After this attempt was foiled, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TV story)}}) the [[main Cyber-Fleet]] was dispersed. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Time-Flight (TV story)}}) | |||
