This Takes place after Voidfire and the Scrolls of Andloft.

 

The Encounter With Lukimea will send the PC's to the Distant Future, where the entire universe is dieing out.

 

Year 100,000,000,000 A.D?

 

The PC's will arrive in a world in eternal darkness. There are no more stars in the night sky. There is some sort of ambient light keeping everything dimly lit. It's almost like the Realm of Shadow was slowly consuming the universe.

 

At first, the Only Creature that they come across are these wierd and Powerful savage beasts that look like they would eat anything.

 

Eventually they come across the last human city.

 

To their suprise, inside the city was the Tower of Time and Space!

 

Apparently, The humans of this time found the only refuge here in this city. A scientist named Professor Yantoo and his assistant were studying the Dimensions Gate. They thought it a means of finding utopia, since it was one of the few magic artifacts that still work in the world.

 

With Magic failing, alot of the interior barriers that kept Magnus from going to certain places in the Tower had failed, So they were able to make into the room that had been sealed off before.

 

Inside they found a tablet with strange writings on it, which with the help of Magnus, they could Translate.

 

Durring this Time, the PC's may notice a Pocket Watch that was owned by Professor Yantoo, who says he has had it all his life. He also says that it has never worked.

 

With the help of the PC's they translate the coordinates for the Dimensions Gate and get the symbols to another plane, one that wasn't dieing. They Start helping the People go through. Durring this process, those monsters attack again. So the PC's must activate the Towers defenses by planting the staff of Magnus into its recess, and go down and take care of the beasts that make it through.

 

Durring this time, Professor Yantoo is having his own personal revelation. Between the working Dimentions Gate, the Time Vortex, the Staff of Magnus, and Magnus himself; he starts to remember who he actually is while the PC's fight off the Beasts.

 

Pretty soon, all of the Human survivors make it through the Gate, minus Professor Yantoo and his assistant.

 

With Yantoo in a trance, the Assistant, tells the PC over the intercom that they can come back up now. They will need to redial the Gate to leave themselves.

 

As the PC's start making their way to the Teleportation Circle, they notice that it goes offline.

 

They then hear over the intercom

 

"Professor Yantoo! What are you doing!? Why did you turn off the Teleportaion Circle?"

 

"Don't worry my dear," Professor Yantoo, "As one Door closes, another must Open!"

 

Just then, they hear over the intercom something that sounded like the Staff of Magnus being removed from its recess. Imediatly afterwards, they hear the defenses of the tower being shut down.

 

"Professor Yantoo! Don't! You are going to doom us all!"

 

As the PC's have to outrun the beasts, they hear a Gunshot.

 

"Damn you!" Professor Yantoo shouts in pain.

 

Next they hear a lightning bolt.

 

"Always the Women!" Yantoo Shouts.

 

"This is anoying... Damn this old body. Well... If Magnus can be young and strong... Then so can I!" Yantoo says.

 

"Cronus... Reborn!"

 

Suddenly they hear an explosion of sound, with green light leaking down the halls and passageways.

 

As the PC's finally make it up to the Gate Room, they see where the Light was comming from. Yantoo... or Cronus... was going through some sort of radical transformation. Next thing they know, it was him, but much younger. Only they thought they recognized him. It was General Aurther from Tiernas!?

 

Cronus runs up the Gate Ramp and turns to face Magnus.

 

"I can't have you following me, Magnus. It's time to say goodbye... so... Goodbye!"

 

The Staff of Magnus, in Cronus Hands starts pulsing. Simultaniously, the Dimentions Gate pules with it, and soon, Cronus, the Staff, and the Gate... are gone... Trapping the PC's in the distant future.

So... The PC's are stuck with no Staff of Magnus, no Dimensions Gate... and the strange creatures that want to eat them are right behind them... what do they do now?

 

Hmmm...

 

They must somehow open a portal to the Time Vortex. There could be a book or something with that particular spell.

 

Journey, through the Time Vortex without a staff or a Dimensions gate is dangerous. (See Manual of the Planes: Realm of Time.)

 

Their goal is to make it to the center of the Time Vortex... the Center of Time. There they will find the Temple of Time or Citadel of Eternity, floating in the eye of the spiraling vortex's. A shining Cathedral on a floating landmass, which size rivals a city.

 

Inside, rests the tombs of the Time Wizards of Ancient Times. Tombs that would be forever preserved in the Center of Time.

 

Inside the Temple, contains strange Angels. They Call themselves the Keepers of Time.

 

There is a Great Hall, that contains portals to various Realms and Planes.

 

One goes to the Far Realm, which the Time Angels warn that most beings in the universe, whether they be Mortal or Immortal can not handle the Far Realm.

 

Other Portals go to other places. Some known, most unknown.

 

At the end of the Great Hall, contains a Dimensions Gate. The Keepers of Time say that Magnus, the Last Time Wizard placed it there an Eternity ago.

 

Once the Identity of Magnus is revealed, the Keepers of Time Show him to his Study, in the Cathedral. One of the Items on his Desk, was a Pocket Watch similar to the one that Professor Yantoo had. For some reason, While Magnus felt the need to take it, he also seemed to make an assumption that the Pocket Watch was broken, like Professor Yantoo.

 

Another thing they find in the Study, is Magnus' Old Journal. Inside were many obscure pages that cant be translated. However one page contained a Prophecy of sorts. One that could be Read. It told of who Cronus was. How he was a Time Wizard like Magnus, only he used his knowledge of Time abusively. He was a Rival of Magnus. For a Time... Enemies... However, when the Great War Started thousands of years before, he disappeared never to be seen again. The Time Wizards looked everywhere in Time but could not find him.

 

However, the last entry states that He was found, but too late. Magnus did not have much time remaining and he needed to prepare for his rebirth and to leave instructions to himself to help save the universe from the Antiverse rupture prophecized to happen. His only hope would be that eventually he would find his way here again, so that he would know of Cronus, or that possibly someone else would do something before he caused irrevocable harm.

 

The Last writings in the journal contained a set of Gate Coordinates. Ones that will lead them back to the Tower of Time and Space, when they are needed...?

 

Well, when the PC's use the Dimensions Gate, to go back in time, they do find themselves in the Tower of Time and Space... Only that the Tower had been moved in their absence, Grove and all, to the Dimension of Hell.

The Tower of Time and Space is in the City of Kried... or at least in the Hell Version of it. There they will find that they cannot leave. It will become apparent that a deity is keeping them from leaving. Nomon, Prince of the Undead. Once the PC's souls have entered Hell, he bound them to Hell so they cannot leave... that is unless they can kill him, which they will have to do if they want to go back to the Mortal Realm.

 

Once they do, they will realize that the City of Kreid is under siege. The Northern Legion had managed to get an Army all the way down to Kried, thanks in part to General Aurthur AKA Cronus, who moved the Litch King's floating Island to the Skies above Kried, allowing him to transport an entire army down there.

 

To make things worse, he put events into play that would distract the Seven Handles away from Tiernas while he did this.

 

And to make things even worse, he has told everyone that the PC's are traitors to the Throne, and must be killed on sight.

 

So Tiernas Soldiers will attack the PC's, and the occasional Wizard of the First Order, as well as Clerics of the Temple. They will also have to contend with Northern Legion forces of all sorts.

 

As the PC's move around the City, the battle will continually rage on.

 

Information Gathering will reveal that a situation developed in Wardrow, where the Allied King in Ridley suddenly withdrew his forces from the front line, allowing Northern Legion to march into the south. The situation with the King prompted the deployment of Xeik to Ridley, where the King was. Only after he left did news of the Northern Legion army penetrating the wall reach Kreid. Most of the other Seven Handles were already engaged somewhere else, so they wouldn't know of this sudden invasion. So Kreid was stuck defending itself against an impossibly large Invasion force.

 

On their way to find either "General Aurthur" or King Tiernas, they will be stopped by the worst foe they can think of. The Litch King hovers down on a Force Dacolitch (The Dracolitch is naturally invisible).

 

He will make a small otherworldly speech to Magnus, "Do you not KNOW death, Magnus!?"

 

An encounter will start in which the PC's should get incredibly owned.

 

"You have failed! The Age of Man has ended! This will be MY Hour!"

 

Before he can finish them off however, a horn in the distance blows. The Litch looks over to where the noise came from, before flying off.

 

If the PC's so desire, they can see what the commotion is about. This is the moment the Otan Elves join the war, on the rise of the red full moon of the 100th night of the siege.

 

Griffin Palace:

General Aurther is there and orders the Griffin Guard to kill the PC's, before running off towards the Throne Room.

The PC's arrive at the throne room.

 

"General Aurthur tells the remaining guards to kill the PC's." This time he uses magic against them while the guards do so.

 

Suddenly the King comes in and is surprised to see General Aurthur use magic, since he is suppose to be just a soldier. The General Turns around and runs the King through, saying, "I'm done taking orders from you, HUMAN!"

 

As the PC's approach, Xeik enters the room on his Dragon Cat. Aurthur Blames the PC's and undoubtedly the PC's blame General Aurther. Xeik will look between the PC's and the General.

 

Just the Brontes, the King's Griffin comes through the Curtain and attacks Aurthur (AKA Cronus). Arthur swings his sword at Brontus and is about to cast a spell on him, when Xeik and his Dragon Cat Steed races across the room. Cronus diverts his attention on Xeik. Before Xeik could be hit with the spell, Xeik's Dragon Steed rears up and takes the hit, completely disintegrating before everyone's eyes.

 

Xeik gets pissed off and charges at Cronus. They enter a sword fight (with Cronus using spells too.) (PC's can join in too.)

 

Cronus will cast a spell called Alacrity. A spell which allows him to go twice as fast as everyone else (gets to go twice in one round). And he can cast a spell called Abate, which slows people if they don't save from it.

 

Once he is brought down to zero Hitpoints.

 

Cronus collapses onto the ground. He is bleeding out. He coughs up some blood, and he is struggling to breathe.

 

"Why..." He asks, "Why can't I Rebirth!?"

 

Cronus is gripping onto the Broken Watch that you saw him have before. Be is continually opening it and closing it.

 

"Damn him..." He coughs out.

 

He turns to Aiden, "You have been on the wrong side, Mangus... From the Very beginning! I kept trying to tell you... but you never listened!"

 

His face starts turning pale.

 

"This stupid war isn't about the north and south... good vs evil..." He says... "Atleast... not the good and evil that you think it is..."

 

"The North may be controlled by evil..." He says "But they are not wrong..."

 

He glances down at Aidens new "broken" Pocket Watch. "That watch..."

 

Aiden will insist that it is broken and useless.

 

"That watch..." Cronus comments... "Is... Everything... that... you... were..................."

 

he dies.

Xeik might mention that Aiden might want to think it over before he even considers opening that Pocket Watch of his, because it may change him more than he would like. Xeik has known the previous Magnus from a thousand years ago, and he was nothing like he is today.

 

Xeik has to leave it at that though, because there is still a war outside, that needs finishing.

 

"We gotta go!" He roars.

 

As they run down the great hallway, Xeik informs the soldiers that the PC's are in fact not traitors.

 

A little ways down, you hear shouts that the Seven Handles had arrived.

 

When they get outside, they will see the Litch King's Horror of a secret weapon. Sky Waignog, Great Dragon God, had been somehow brought back to life forcefully into a nasty Dracolitch under the control of the Litchking himself.

 

Xeik explains as much.

 

Currently, members of the Seven Handles were already fighting it.

 

Felinara rides up on her Dragon Cat mount and picks up Xeik. Xeik mentions to Felinara, "Your Husband says Hi." before they ride off.

 

Before they can do anything to help, the Litch King's Force Dracolitch attacks them. (or something)

 

After the Battle.

 

They now see the battle with Dky Waignog in the distance. Once Xeik hand entered the battle, the tides were turning.

 

However the Dragon God starts flying up at incredible speed.

 

On the way up, just out of Mirdan and Oris' range, they shoot their most powerful spells at it. Ultima and Holy.... to no avail.

 

The Dragon god was collecting energy for it's mega breath weapon. which would spell doom for us all!

 

Xeik was latched onto the back of the Dragon though, and was working his way up, battling the Tail of the Dragon God.

 

Just then, Brontes zooms past the PC's into the air.

 

Xeik is knocked off the Dragon, and was now falling from thousands of feet in the air.

 

Brontes caught him!

 

He then flew up and unleashed the power of his sword upon the Dragon God. It was as if Oreah himself was unleashed upon the lesser Dragon God. Sky Waignog... DemiDracolitch or not... didn't stand a chance.

 

Sometime during this whole thing, The Litch King had ran away via teleportation.

Afterwards, the battle didn't last long.

 

The Northern Legion Forces were mostly wiped out, and the rest retreated.

 

The Otan Elves maintained a perimeter around the City.

 

Xeik got to know his new friend, Brontes.

 

Afterwards, Xeik explained what happened. The Northern King reseaved a Gift. It was a sword, called the Muramasa. It was an Evil Sword. It had corrupted the King of Ridley and he was controlled by the enemy. After which he withdrew his forces from the front lines at a most inopprotune moment. Or it was more of a cooridanted Effort.

 

This is what allowed the Northern Legions to seemingly walk right into the Southern Kingdoms without challange. They seemed to know where there wasn't any protection. In fact they did. The King was being controlled by an Evil thought to have been long destroyed. The Muramasa was an artifact from long ago made from the scales of Oreah as an attempt to shed all evil from his being. Afterwards, Wodahs must have found this sword and used it for his own purposes. Thankfully, with the help of Trek, who had the swords opposite, the Masamune, they where able to vanquish the spirit of Wodahs.

 

General Aurther, or Cronus, must have orchestrated all of this. It was amazing that he has been a traitor for so long and they did not know about it.

Good news, The Otan Elves are now with them in the War.

 

A few days later, the Leader of the Chawk'Trro, a man named Kor'Qall, gave he and his people's allegance to the Southern Alliance, after the beating they were given from Xeik and the Alliance.

 

This was a true turning point in the War.

 

Now if they could only find Crimson. It wasn't long afterwards that Aiden notices that someone has taken his Pocket Watch.
