blast man shakes his head and looks at meddy in suprise
Oh! meddy! you should be careful, could've blasted you!

A group of 4 navis has gathered in a corner of the undernet, whispering to each other...

Ehhh, could be worse, the main problem is that it's not a hero

Tedd goes and picks up the feathers, shoving them in his pocket

300 feathers, these will be useful later

Alright!

Tedd shoots the Blue orb, causing another unstable portal to appear

It could be Nifl, it could be roderick, it could even be duessel!

The portal comes to a close, there is no shadow

Oh it's feathers.

IEEEEEEEEEEE A GHOST!

blast man throws his bazooka in the air and screams,before he can launch an attack, the bazooka falls on his head with an audible "clang"

Blast man turns around,aiming his bazooka

The portal closes, removing the shadow, revealing the monstrous figure

I am emperor of the Adrestian Empire, Edelgard. With my power, I will reshape the crooked wo-

Edelgard is silenced by a stamina potion to the face, it does nothing, but still causes her to stop talking and look down at Tedd, whos sticking his hand out, it now covered in a blue flame

If it ain't the bane of my tactical existence. now shake my hand, I wanna get this contract over and done with, you've done this before, blah blah blah "hero of great thank you for coming to my call" you know the drill.... at least you're on my side now-

Edelgard, while seeming disgusted at the idea of a contract with a godlike entity, reaches forth and shakes tedds hand, causing a cool blue firey effect to occur

So what is needed of me? for you to call upon the power of heroes?

Basically, there's some kind of evil corruption or something going around, where dark versions of everyone are trying to wipe out the not dark versions, and I have a feeling they are going to try and wipe this entire dimension to the ground. While I doubt the other reapers will let that happen, I called upon heroes to help fight this "dark lord"

Very well, my power is yours to prevent this dark lord from creating his own crooked world.

OK nice, now shift it, I need to finish this summon circle-

Edelgard moves out of the way while tedd walks towards the orbs again

MIGHTY! give me a colour thats red green or blue.

No, no, it normally does this, gives enough time for the hero to come through, and if I don't like them, shove them back where they came

Tedd watches as the light coming from the portal fades slighty, revealing a huge humanoid, yet monstrous shadow, that completely overshadowed tedd, who looks at the figure with mild disgust

Oh! it's you.

Alright, the good news is that the summoning stone worked, now its just the task of breaking these 5 stones and hopefully, at least one of them will pop out a hero, hopefully, maybe, probably shouldn't get my hopes up

Tedd points at one of the grey stones, before taking a step back

Ignore this, its part of the whole "summoning ritual"

Heroes of the past, present, or future, answer the call to fight! come forth!

Tedd then fires at the orb, causing it to shatter, producing an unstable portal that looks like it could close at any second!

Tedd gives mighty a thumbs up,before pointing breidablik at the summoning stone,and begins to whisper quietly

dontbeevildontbeevildontbeevilidontwannagetspearedagain

Tedd aims at the stone,before pulling the trigger,a bright projectile shoots out and hits the centre of the stone, causing a small burst of colourful light, and five different colours orbs hang in the air around the stone, a red,a blue,a green and 2 grey stones, Tedd looks at the stones,deep in thought

Alright, just plonk it down and move out of the way,I'm not sure what happens if someone stands too close when I summon but I don't want you getting sucked into a portal and, I don't know, either turned to stone or torched which seems to be common

Tedd then snaps the barrel of breidablik back to the handle, and spins the weapon for a cool moment

hang on lemme just-
Prototedd fishes around his pockets and grabs a pair of goggles,putting them on his head

ok, much better, basically,back in askr and some of the other locations I've visited,there's been this fancy looking stone with an orb shaped hole in the centre,and when I fire the orbs into said hole it allows me the chance to summon a hero (or a book or feathers but we don't talk about that) basically,the rock needs to be some kind of central focus point where wormholes and portals can be created.

Tedd nods at mighty's statement, still putting an alarming amount of Orbs inside of Breidablik,

Hey mighty? you're good with this kinda stuff, you mind making me some kind of magical space time point so i can summon someone?

(see why fact checkers say this is false)

Most of the order of heroes is in full swing,moving around,collecting and sharpening weapons,fire mages grabbing different tomes or more improvised weapons,almost everyone was constantly on the move



Well, except a couple of heroes who decided the best plan of action was to sleep.

Tedd,feeling as if something bad was about to happen, loads a few extra shots into his Breidablik while typing something on his phone




A note appears on the notice board, it seems to be typed instead of written, but is still on a parchment similar to the other notes. A group of heroes, including Leif,Boey,Tailtiu and Mirabilis are crowded around the note



Upon reading the message, there's nervous chatter between the heroes as they prepare for the worst

Hope this isn't gonna be another Hel incident-

Xane goes up to clown man, takes a good long look at him, squinting, before transforming into clownman for a second, and then turning back, slightly dazed

Yep, robots are off limits... just like dragons

---

prototedd looks at his phone, checking some kind of information feed

Xane looks outside at trill

Yyyyep, he looks prettyy upset, and yeah, Got filled in on the whole "evil counterparts" situation by the golden princey before we got here,well... I got here
