...Hey kid,somethings approaching us

The lady blader bonks their companion, and the two turn to face Ralpho

Is that a rabbit?... and are they holding a flower? weshouldrunwecan'tbefoundhere


Saias peeks out of the bush slightly to see what is going on

I am STILL recoiling over the fact that you're rouxls kaard

Calibur throws his hands up, and makes a semi dramatic pose

long ago, the three kingdoms of the world lived in... well, it wasn't harmony, but there was peace, until all three kingdoms, lead by their respective kings, decided it was a GREAT idea to go to war with each other, I'm going to be honest, I don't know WHY they started fighting, i left the Axe kingdom soon after the fighting broke out, and I need you four to help me clean up this mess.

how? by talking them down?

What? no! We're gonna take all three of them out, that's what.

---

Saias appears, and manages to just casually walk out of the fortress from the throne room, making his way to the outside of the castle, as he does though, he hears the sounds of talking, he pauses, hiding behind some of the destroyed robot remains and begins eavesdropping on the conversation

Well, that was...eventful! you saw the guy as well right? he was like "boom bang!" and the guy he was fighting was like "arrgh!" and the building behind them (crumbling noises), do you think that the building falling apart was part of the show?

...You really still think that was some kind of show?

Yeah! how else would all of those explosions be so coordinated and controlled? and why would the explodey guy and the other guy just, leave after they had been fighting? I assume if it wasn't just a show that the other guy would have been just, left for dead?

could've been a bounty hunter or something, maybe like an assassin? we didn't see the other guy move after the explosion-

The human (?) stops, turning back to their mecha companion

...Well now that you mention it, yeah that, that makes a lot of sense, makes it creepy how much fun he seemed to be having though if that's the case, I'm just gonna, stay in the realm of fantasy and hope that guy was just a REALLY good performer

...right, lets keep moving before someone finds us-

Brickells ship resurfaces underneath her, taking the admiral up with it, Brickell re-adjusts her hat, and shakes the water off, the ship appears to look more advanced and upgraded from last time.

I live to sail another day! Prepare the mine!

Brickells ship then begins to make a noise that sounds as if it's charging.

Mega mine if I may

(OOC: my apologies, double posting)



Leif, Saias and salem let Euden and his group into the castle, and thank the stars above that they weren't hostile, The 4 sit down on a makeshift table and chairs made out of crates, whilst Leif lays down what exactly has happened.

... So to sum everything up, The summoners missing, Alfonse and Sharena are missing, the castle is mixed up and weird, and by the sounds of things you've ALSO been misplaced

Euden makes a noise of affirmation,

Yeah, the entire halidom just, suddenly warped here,luckily to appears that no one was hurt, still, incredibly strange what happened, have you had any ideas what might have happened?

The others shake their heads

Hm.. i see-

An awkward silence follows at the group ponders what to do, Saias then stands up, letting out a polite cough

Well, if i may be excused, I'm going to try and do some reconnaissance, maybe i can find some clues on what to do.

Saias then leaves,a few seconds later salem gets up and follows him, leaving leif and euden sitting together

Peony, still i assume being carried by omega, looks up at her friend

Peony.exe :... Know what?

Sharena takes a second to realise that she should have warned glass about the stairs, before quickly running down to the bottom, she winces while looking at glass, trying to help him up

..Glass? what are you doing here? is everything alright? that was a nasty fall-

---

Hilda struggles to get up onto her feet, causing Tailtiu to grumble, She goes to fire another lightning bolt, before realising that tome, in the confusion, had been thrown across the room, Tailtiu runs to grab the book, but is caught off guard as another dark magic circle appears beneath her, giving her no time to reach as she is suddenly blasted by a pyre of dark fire, just barely managing to avoid being roasted!

Sharena listens intently to mightys history lesson, she has no clue what he's saying but shes listening to be polite, but she pauses and watches glass get thrown down the stairs as they reach the bottom.

Thea, having been wandering for the past few hours now that steve had gone to deal with the jailbreak elsewhere (which is something I swear ill post about alongside the dice meeting), finally comes across another item room, unlike the rest of the dungeon, which had more of a resemblance to an underground, well, dungeon, the room in question was much larger, with blue, patterned floors and different stone pillars lined along the walls, on the opposite side of the room to where thea entered, upon a large red carpet sat a gold lined, red throne, that seemed to be just collecting dust. Three stained glass windows stood above the throne as well, detailing the eight heroes of the scouring. But most importantly, in the centre of the room, dug into the ground, was a spear, one with a glowing blue spearhead that froze the ground it was dug into. Thea quickly made her way towards it.

Is this... Maltet? I've never seen it up close like this... but it can't possibly be the real thing right? there's no way those weirdos managed to grab THE maltet-

Thea goes to grab the maltet, hesitating for a split second, before clutching the lance and pulling it out of the ground, causing a shockwave of ice to appear beneath her feet, spreading out along the floor and up the walls of the room. Suddenly, Thea's life flashed before her eyes as memories of every important even of her life suddenly clouded her vision, from joining roy on his quest, to being forcefully revived to serve Hel, and then later recruited into the order of heroes, meeting Soleil, breaking into kings castle, Everything suddenly flashed in front of her eyes, causing her to flinch. Once the impromptu flashback ended thea looked around, the room now looked a lot more damaged, as if there had been a large fight within, and the stained glass now portrayed several people she recognized with Narcian,of all people, front and center, illuminated by the much dimmer lighting.

Suddenly, a shadowy figure appeared on the throne, sitting next to a terrifying, equally shadowy wyvern. Before thea could react, the figure stood up, and climbed atop of the wyvern, drawing a battle axe, Thea squinted

Wait a second... is that-

I am strong. I am wise. I am beautiful. And most importantly, I am right! Always! ...Me! No one else!

Suddenly, everything familiar about the room came flushing back as the lights suddenly brightened. This was capital of Eturia, This is where she had fallen before. Thea took a deep breath, staring down her shadow covered opponent.

I don't know what you are, or HOW you've done it, but I will promise you this general, This time, one of us will walk away from this fight, and it will be me!

♫ In the name of bern - Fire emblem the binding blade ♫

@Malware : Panda is correct, grenade can still only be unlocked through his challenge, either by scanning him or defeating him with neutral attacks, you can't unlock him by defeating him outside of this challenge

this thread is also to help newer players who have the same question, and completing all three campaigns doesn't affect the shops in terms of level.

@Malware : If your going to post, at least post in more detail as to help rather than posting something vague like "just buy it"

The way you unlock both circuits is through autos shop, I beleive you have to upgrade the shop by buying and selling items to auto, most notably screws that are dropped by most enemies outside of player battles, level 80 should do the trick to unlock the circuits

While Saias and leif are looking at each other. Another person comes up to them

Pardon my intrusion, but there is someone at the door, claims he knows the prince and princess.

Leif helps Saias down from his perch, and they follow Salem to the main door of the castle, Leif then opens up the door, coming face to face with the person knocking on the door.

...Who is also followed by a sizable ragtag army

Oh hello! You're the order of heroes right? Do you know where Alfonse and Sharena are?

Tailtiu is knocked back into a nearby table, the impact causing it to break into two, Hilda then walks towards Tailtiu, smirking as another ball of dark magic appears in her hand.

Just as i thought, all bark and no bite, any last words before the only thing you can do is scream?

Tailtiu groans

Just one thing...

Tailtiu then grabs one of the nearby chairs that had been knocked over by the first shockwave. and proceeds to slam it into the side of hilda, causing her to be sent flying to the side, hitting the ground and rolling. Tailtiu then uses the broken table to help herself up.

Be aware of your surroundings.

Moments after their stand off, Hilda and Tailtiu both fire a powerful spell towards each other, the magic blasts colliding in the center of the room, creating a shockwave that pushes the two mages away from each other as well as tipping over the nearby tables and chairs,

My, seems you DID have some fight in you when you were younger! that'll make it all the more fun to break you down all over again.

Hilda raises her arm, as another magic circle appears underneath taitliu, who barely manages to dodge out of the way as a roaring fire shoots up from the circle, Tailtiu then returns with several strikes of lightning from her tome, which hilda just casually sidesteps to avoid

Still... I can clearly see why your brother wanted you de-

Do you EVER shut up?

Frost hangs in the air around Tailtiu for a second before she fires an iceberg charged lightning strike!

..... Which Hilda proceeds to block with her gloves, completely nullifying the attack.

You call that a magic attack? even with the blood of thrud himself running through you THATS the best you can do?

Hilda fires another attack, this time a direct blast of dark magic towards Tailtiu, who manages to narrowly block the strike, but the sheer power behind the attack knocks her back!

---

While the rest of the fire emblems currently there are still sat at the table, Tailtiu has broken off from the others, have spotted glass on the opposite side of the room, But before she could make it over to talk to him, Schest had already appeared, grabbed glass and vanished, leaving the thunder noble dumbfounded, not quite sure how to respond to what had just happened.

But soon, the sound of loud footsteps echoed throughout the inventory, causing any external chatter or general noise to die down, everything was dead silent, the sound caused Tailtiu to freeze up, feelings of dread enveloped her, her hand gripped tightly onto the grip of her sword, not wanting to turn around and face what was behind her as the footsteps grew louder and louder. Before they too stopped, and the sickening voice rang out.

Well, If it isn't the failure of house Friege, I'll admit, I'm surprised to see you standing rather than cowering beneath me...But i suppose that's yet to come for you, hm?

Hilda pulls out her own tome of thoron, and throws it to the ground, its clearly much worse for wear than Tailtiu's, almost as if it had been intentionally damaged, then pulling out her own tome.

Well, I don't see the point in letting such a waste of space continue breathing.

Hilda raises her hand, a circle of magic appeared beneath Tailtiu for a split second, Before Tailtiu threw her sword, forcing Hilda to move out of the way, cancelling the spell. Tailtiu then turned around, glaring down Hilda.

Oh i know exactly what you claim awaits me, I've seen other Tailtius, my own hopeless, sunken eyes staring back at me, warning me about my fate at your hands, it terrified me, knowing that no matter what i tried, my life would end alone, not being able to protect me or the ones I love, not have the strength to keep living...

Sparks of electricity crackled from Tailtiu's tome as hilda smirked.

But that's not what will happen here, I refuse to fade away, to fall to your mental torture. I know I can change my fate, right what was wrong, and it all starts with striking you down. Making sure you never hurt anyone ever again!


Tailtiu opens her tome, the sounds of roaring thunder echo throughout the inventory's halls, Hilda scoffs.

Seems the disappointment still has fight in her. Fine. Let's see how brave you are once i break you!

♫ Fateful Battle - Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War

With the return of the fire emblems outside of, well, the ones that are busy to say the least. There was an incredibly brief tactics meeting on what they were supposed to do, between dealing with the summoner, the prince AND the princess of askr being no where to be found, alongside the castle being warped and twisted, different fragments of other designs having merged into one, and finally the sudden appearance of an entire separate castle and grounds in the distance.

But despite all of this, The numerous fire emblems soon got to work, trying to make sure the castle was in a safe and stable condition, alongside beginning to form plans to seek out and rescue their missing comrades. With the heroes moving back and forth, carrying supplies and various weapons. A single man stands ontop of a stack of crates, elevating him above the rest of the traffic, allowing him to call out orders towards the others.

Bartre! Dorcas! we need those supplies out into the area as soon as possible, Any available healers follow with them aswell! we must make sure no one has been injured. First recon team be ready to head out at any given moment! Idunn Please get fae down from the gears before she gets hurt!

As the Idunn runs across the room to help the girl down, another hero stops by saias' pedestal.

Ah, lord Leif, is everything alright?

I'm afraid not Bishop Saias, we've had reports that another grand hero had appeared around the time when the warping of the land began, but vanished soon after, going through a portal.

Hmm, that is problem... Do we know who it was? maybe it's another case such as myself, or Sedgar.

Leif gripped the hilt of his sword

It wasn't anyone such as your self, or even a case such as haar. No, the person in question is...

Peony, a little confused but still glad omega didn't wipe Plumeria off the face of the Undernet, gives the rest of the fairies and Freyja a wave as omega carries her away, Freyja equally as dumbfounded as BeastMan for a split second.

Triandra.exe : Miss Freyja? shouldn't we go after him? i mean he just grabbed Peony and left

Freyja.exe :... No, no, i have reasoning to trust that she'll be ok, besides, we must get to work, Peony can do what she wants to do, its probably best she isn't here for this-

---

Peony is being carried away, not much she can say on the topic

Peony and Mirabilis floats over to plumeria, helping her up onto her feet,well, help her upright, while dazed and still recovering from being stomped into the ground, pulls out a device




While the others make sure Plumeria is alive, Frejya.exe strides over to Omega and BeastMan, staring down at omega, not because of any malice, but just because she's taller than him.

Freyja.exe : Congratulations on rank 5. you have done well to come this far in such a short amount of time,I am assuming you wish to leave to hunt down rank 4 as soon as you can, but i must ask you, what will you do if you become the underking? Simply curious, is all

Plumeria doesn't even get the chance to react as omega stomps her into the ground, colliding with the panel below, the gust of waves from the impact cause the onlookers besides Freyja.exe to be pushed back considerably. when the gusts clear, Plumeria is face flat on the ground of the battlefield, there's a few moments of silence.


Mirabilis.exe : .... Is she dead?

Plumeria then tries to get back up, she raises her buster towards omega, before pausing

Plumeria.exe : I'm practically toast here, i estimate that if i take any more damage ill be done for

she drops her arm, before just slumping and falling onto the panel shes already on. Ending the battle

Mirabilis then turns to a terrified looking peony

Mirabilis.exe : .... yeah, no, shes alive.... i think

Gyro M puts a hand to his chin, making a "hmm" noise

Yo midi are you SURE its a good idea to head to the warp? i mean, do we even know what a pancake party is? could be something much more than we can chew
